I was camped out on the main page of Hasbro Pulse at noon and kept refreshing it.  I was able to get in right at noon ET and only went for the Heroes of Endor set.  It took me about 5 minutes total to check out.

These are still up for pre-order, so Hasbro must have kept a lot back for the general public. They'd take a lot of flak if they all sold out yesterday.

I may be wrong, but I think their current stock is sold out. They are now taking pre orders for additional sets to come in March. I see others have speculated the same.

I think the stock they have on hand is what they sold to members on Wednesday.  The Thursday orders are all pre-order for next March.  Not ideal, but I like that approach better than limited quantities where some people miss out. 

Does anyone know if this set contains all the stuff that comes with the individual figures?  If this isn't coming with Han's Trench or Leia's poncho, I'll be tempted to cancel my order and just get the basics.  Not worth having to double up on the figures just to get Paploo.

I believe Jayson or Jeff said the coat and poncho are tucked away in the package.  I assume we'll get Paploo somewhere down the line, but it's nice to get another speeder bike.

Okay cool, thanks for clarifying.  As long as you get everything+ in the box set, I'm sticking with it.  Need another speederbike like I need another hole in my head though.  I loaded up on the Biker Scouts years back and have way more bikes than I need.

Now you can put Luke and Leia on one, or each on their own bike!!  :P

I think Hasbro is making sure they can sell the "convention exclusive" versions of Armorer, Cad Bane, Endor Han, Endor Luke, Endor Leia before they "officially" reveal that all those same figures will be pre-orders soon... even though the basic versions are now hitting retail.  Oops!

Got my set from Hasbro Pulse today.

I'm not sure who did the packaging for this set, but its off the charts creative and cool. 

I had seen the press photos of the figures, but hadn't seen anything for the packaging.  Now I see where Rebelscum had some good photos of this a month ago.

I love how the whole thing folds open with three separate windows that work well on their own and also work together.  Its a shame I'm going to open this and not be able to display the packaging too.

The presentation of this set looks impressive to the point where I might order the individual figures of Han, Luke & Leia in order to keep those characters in the packaging.  That might mean just taking out Paploo and the speeder bike!

I just put in a preorder on Hasbro Pulse with virtually no hassle. Scheduled to ship on March 29, which is a long way away, but I enjoy when stuff is spread out like that. Just glad to have been able to get one.

I'm assuming Pulse Premium members will get theirs now and the rest of us will wait for more to be made?

I have a pending charge from Hasbro Pulse for this set, so I'm guessing I'll be getting it a lot sooner than March 29!

I got see this set live at the local toy show and it really is a piece of art.  Very cool how the sides fold out to display three different action scenes.  It takes up a ton of space, so wouldn't be able to display it that way, but its really well done.  I have it on pre-order, but would probably cancel or sell it if they announce a separate release of Paploo.

I was just going through my pending orders on Hasbro Pulse and saw the 3/29/2021 shipping date on this.  That's really frustrating in light of the cost of this set and how some of them already shipped in October.

I think they were produced in two batches.  The people who got the initial pre-order got stock that was on hand, both those that purchased the second time around are waiting on a second production run of these.  Guessing you were in the second group like me.
