Just got notice from Amazon that these should be here on Monday. And I also noticed that Amazon bumped the price on these up to $34.99...  :o

Mine showed up today.  Nice figure but has no business being on a deluxe card.

Same, and agreed.  I also don’t love this thing where figures come with more accessories than they can hold or put in holsters.  It just leads to more small pieces I need to keep track of and they seem to be using it as an excuse to charge an extra $10.

Got mine from Amazon today. It's a great figure and I'd love to mini-army build it with 5 or 6 more, but there's no way I will buy another at $34.
That's essentially what I just bought the Blurrg for  :o  Please tell me this won't be the new normal.

I'm assuming these will sit and be marked down later at these prices.  Given that it's a troop, I doubt it'll go full Cobb Vanth, but I bet we'll see them for $20 before too long.

The $35 is definitely the result of tariff pricing.  Like Rob said, I would guess they'd come down in price eventually... but Amazon is sometimes weird about that.  Sometimes it takes months, other times days.  I got two at the original $25 price and I think that's enough for me unless they dip into the reg figure range ($17 or less).

Amazon has moved these back down to the pre-tariff bump price of $24.99 - https://amzn.to/41sWF11

I ordered from the Amazon link. so thanks Jeff!  I'm still waiting on the two that I ordered from Hasbro Pulse when they were initially offered.

It's a great figure!  And the number of accessories is substantial.  But you can only equip the Armored Commando with 4 of them at the most.  After taking the figure out of the blister I put the blaster pistol in the holster, the rifle in the right hand and the shield on the left arm.  The jetpack might be removable, but at least it can stay on the figure.  As for the knife and the electro-baton?  We'll see.
