it’s yet another instance of Walmart screwing things up with an exclusive.

You can always count on a Walmart pre-order to NOT go according to plan.

Like the rest of you, I'm hoping these pre-orders don't eventually get cancelled because of the goof up.

No worries Rob, just couldn't pass up on giving you a hard time!

And always remember, Walmart only screws up exclusives on days that end in Y.
This is the way.

That's why I always order through their Spanish website.

I got the two flametroopers and 4 of the canon/stormtrooper but somehow the Asoka one was already sold out?! I would have thought that would've been the last to go.

She's basically the most popular character of all time.

I think it's more that it is basically the exact same as the basic figure that is coming out around the same time, plus a cloak and an owl.

Fair point.

Is that Grogu a slightly different sculpt? It looks like he is maybe sitting down more than the VC184 sculpt.

My credit card got dinged for $67 today, so some combo of my Ahsoka/Grogu, Grogu/Incinerator, EWeb/Stormtrooper set orders are starting to process now.  Walmart.com order status still says they will be here 5/26.

Was every Star Wars figure on the same ship or something?  Feels like it’s all hitting at once.

I have a charge pending for these, too.  And I've got the same delivery date listed as well - 5/26.

I got an email with updated arrival date of May 26 - Jul 26.  Er, a 2-month window?  Okay.  I guess they'll get here when they get here.

I remember something similar when Walmart began fulfilling the preorders for the last Walmart exclusive wave of TVC figures.  There was that initial email, and shortly after that the delivery notices went out with more realistic delivery dates.
