Quick and painless to get everything I wanted on pre-order.  And this is with the Notary showing up so I could sign all the closing documents to sell my house and buy a new one!

You put the new address in, right?

I have so many pre-orders that are unfulfilled, I'll change them all at once!
This is the way.

Is there a new Vader out today too?

Vader and Meatcutter BlueShirt Obi-Wan are tomorrow at 1pm ET

Wait...there's a new TVC Vader and Obi-Wan tomorrow?

Edit: Never mind, I just realized it's black series.

Hasbro claimed that it was a running change that was made very late in the production run of TFA figures.  It's not really known if any/many made it out to retail in 2015/2016.  Hasbro promised a re-issue and it only took them 5 years to fulfill that promise to get him out in greater numbers. :P

Wait, is that a variant that I didn’t know about and might need to track down?  Which Han?

I have only ever seen one example of the running change of the Black Series TFA Han Solo.  And it’s owned by Steve Evans of Hasbro.  I ordered a second one a couple of years after the initial release from the Hasbro Toy Shop eBay account hoping that maybe I would get the running change.  No luck with that.  I’m a little surprised that they would circle back and fix this after 6 years. 

I also saw reports that the Leia in Boussh disguise is different from the original release.  Evidently it’s shorter, in an effort to a be more depiction of Leia’s height.

Yep, this figure has become something of an obsession with me over the years, ever since it was first mentioned/shown. You are 100% right about Steve being the only one to ever get one of these previously. (That always bugged me) After they finally made wet hair trash compactor Luke, this became the oldest figure still in limbo.

Now that they have made him, maybe we can finally get some of the other “lost” figures like Jedi Exile Luke and Argus “6 eyes” Panox…. :)
