A new TC-14 is not something I needed in my life but I'm sure I'll but one all the same if/when it pops up on ShopDisney (or whatever it's called these days).

My feelings exactly.  If they were looking for a 25th anniversary figure it would have been more fun to do some unique pit droids (maybe even the ones from Mandalorian) or something more fun.  TC-14 is not really fun or interesting.

I'm hoping to get this one from Galaxy's Edge next weekend.
This is the way.

Seriously?   This is why I always order right away even though I overpay a lot.

Disney has no consistency with this stuff.  The first Pride Droid was an aftermarket nightmare that sold out right away, then last year’s are still available at a fraction of the price.  I wish it wasn’t such a guessing game.

It is still showing as "add to bag" for me:

I was surprised they offered free shipping without any minimum limit that day.  That was nice. Otherwise, I would have passed.

I would have like to have bought more for custom droids since they don't have droids at the parks or Disney Springs anymore, but it is what it is.

I must have missed the free shipping part.  I ordered right before I posted here on May 4 and I had to pay for shipping.

Same - there were no free shipping codes when I ordered on May 4 other than SHIPMAGIC (free shipping over $75 total).

Ha, thanks. That's weird. I must suck at searching? I checked in the action figure category & searched both "TC" & "TC-14" but nothing came up.

I always search “Droid” and nothing else.  Works every time.

Searching “Star Wars Vintage Collection” would always bring up the 4-Packs when they used to stock those too.

Weird.  I ordered same day and got free shipping.  There were two codes: SHIPMAGIC and some other one that offered Free Shipping on any order (I don't recall what the code was)... maybe it was FREESHIPPING?!

I recall someone posting about the free shipping, but it was confusing because I put the wrong code in first and it asked me to add more to cart, so I went back to verify and realized it was a different code.

EDIT: I was just happy these were $14.99.
