I’m hoping that my Amazon order might yield the corrected Boba Fett.  The two that I got from EE don’t have the red indicators on the chest piece of Boba’s armor.

If you're parting with those, PM me.  No worries if not, but I'm looking to collect both variants and would happily buy one of yours if you don't want them all.

Thanks, but I'm hanging onto them.  I absolutely want the correct version, but figures are so scarce that I can't part with either of them.

I also got the email about Greef Karga from Amazon.  Also GameStop had Leia and Zutton in stock the other day.

All good, I'll track one down eventually. :)

I'm thinking of adding another order to EE if they are back to a preorder of the next wave.....that should be the corrected one.
This is the way.

It's hilarious to see people kicking around theories about what retailers got the correct version of Boba Fett.  And if they're not poring over the fine details of the sensor bar they're talking about whether or not they got a version with an orange pill rather than yellow.

All of that being said?  I just ordered another couple of Boba Fett's from EE and two more Grogu's from Amazon.

I just saw video on Facebook of someone opening a Zutton that had the correct colors on the knee and ankle joints.  Glad to see that some of those got fixed.

Oh man... I’m packing to move and tossed mine right into a box on Friday when it got here without checking.  Do we know if this is a new variant or if the entire run is corrected?

It's definitely a correction, I've seen some online reviews that show the knee joint being different colors.

Great.  So now we have the original, and the newly painted one in two flavors.

My Amazon child and Boba orders are bumped up now somewhat so I guess shipping semi sooner than they were.  Early may now.

Same.  I got delivery estimates from Amazon saying that my Boba Fett and the Child orders will be delivered Thursday.

Same, but just for Fett.  Somehow I got The Child in stores - only new figure I've bought in stores in 2 years.

There appears to be a weird variation / error in this wave - a significant number of Boba Fett figures shipping on Zutton cards.  I've been seeing quite a few in one of the Vintage Collection Facebook groups recently.

I just got a second email saying that Boba Fett would be here Wednesday morning instead of Thursday.  So many updates.
