2021 TVC Wave 4 (New TVC Wave 19)

[Rob]

Just got an email from EE with an estimated ship date of March, 2022. 

[Matt_Fury]

Rob, is that for individual orders or did you order a case?

[Rob]

I'd only ordered one of each.

[Matt_Fury]

I think I'll head over to BBTS and see what they're saying.

[Rob]

It was faster there last I checked... I feel bad about it, but I also managed to get an order in with Target the other day... I'll just cancel whichever two don't ship first.  But I hope it's Target, the total was like $11 less because there was no shipping charge.

Bbts I find to be slower since I think they get off EE but they push stuff back later on their site too.  Like the month it’s due they move the goal post.

Solid packing job by EE.  As much as I grouse about the speed (or lack thereof) of their shipping to the East coast, the case within a box makes sure that it gets to me intact. 

As for Hasbro and the case assortment?  Grrrrr.  This is the way the wave 4 case is packed:

3 x Darth Maul (Mandalore)
2 x Ahsoka Tano (Mandalore)
2 x Jawa (Arvala 7)
1 x ARC Trooper Echo

I've been keeping a set of new TVC releases carded, and thankfully these got to me in excellent condition.  I'll get around to opening Maul, Ahsoka and a Jawa.  But I'm waiting for my Amazon order with extras of Echo and the Jawa before I open up an Echo figure.  I've also got extras of Ahsoka and Maul on order from Hasbro Pulse.  At some point, when cons can really resume safely, it would be awesome to get both Sam Witwer and Ashley Eckstein to sign the Mandalore Maul and Ahsoka.

I ordered Jawa and Maul from Amazon and both have updated to shipping this week... we'll see if that turns out to be true or not. 

Ahsoka I missed at Amazon so I ordered from BBTS - no news from them yet, pre-order still says August arrival.

Jeff- you're saying your's from Amazon changed from a later date to shipping this week? Mine have said Sep 3 all along but I wasn't confident that would hold up with these delays 

[Nicklab]

My order for Echo and the Arvala 7 Jawa also had the September 3rd delivery date for some time.  I've been checking my Amazon orders and it hasn't really updated, except for the fact that September 3rd is this Friday, so the order information reflects that.  I'm going to keep checking that order for any status updates in the next day or two.

Same here. I'm expecting a delay to happen, but who knows.

No, just the text change like Nick said.  Used to say "Arriving September 3rd" and now say "Arriving Friday".

[Rob]

My Target order is estimated for 9/2 to 9/8. 

[StBrianOfMinneapolis]

My order with dorksidetoys is still slated for september with no updates.

All 4 have or are prepping to ship from Amazon.
