man I feel so tired of hunting none none my friend found 1 and paid 115 plus tax in pr,

 

Whew.. My order is still active.

 

Check again today!

I checked last night after reading this post, and got the same thing you did. I was going to call this morning, but decided to check first, and my order is back up.

Let us know how it gos.

Thanks
Movie Prime

 

My order showed up again.

 

I checked my cc yesterday and the pending charge from TRU is now gone. I checked my order, it is still there on TRU website. Could anyone check their cc to see if their pending charges are gone or not?

 

Yes it will disappear then when they ship it it will show back up

 

Guess I'll post it here too

I called Toys R' Us to inquire about the on-line order, the rep told me that they don't have any to ship out, so I can just cancel my order if I don't want to wait... Why am I not surprised?

 

What?? Why offer preorder if they can fulfill

 

Yea... I PRE ordered. WTF. where are our orders? It would be one thing to complain about a deluxe not getting shipped, but this is ridiculous. This thing cost $100 You would think they would ship them to us at least at the same time as the stores.

 

Time to start hunting...would definitely go a lot faster than this bullshit is.

 

Word.

 

I agree. The pre-orders went up on the 24th of Sep, and a week later, they started appearing in stores. Two weeks after that, (our estimated time of 10/15), and they've apparently not shipped out a single preorder for anyone on these boards (as far as I've read). I'm not using TRU's pre-order system anymore. PERIOD.

 

I was able to secure one on ebay through toysrus and received it the next day it was a christmas present for my boy he loves it.

 

That is just sad.
I didn't realize that none of the preorders had shipped.

Despite my mishaps with the in-store-pickup option I was able to get one sent to my home using TRU.com. It took them four or five days to ship it, but I got it.

And I've been to six different TRU stores Christmas shopping this month and I never saw on Masterpiece Optimus Prime on the shelves.

I really hope Hasbro sees this thread and threads like it. TRU is really an obstacle to getting Hasbro product. I hope other retailers pickup future Masterpiece releases.

 

Most TRUs only got one box of 2 pieces.
Those were most likely held or purchased immediately, as soon as they were accounted for on the truck.

The order numbers were severely understated, almost as if Hasbro didn't want to create a new shelfwarmer. TRUs will eventually reorder MP-10, but again, in small numbers, as not to keep these on shelves too long.

 

Actually, my understanding is that most preorders DID ship (I got mine back in mid-November), albeit most arriving well after the product was starting to be seen in store.

And keep in mind TRU was likely the ONLY venue willing to take it. Walmart and Target don't have a huge desire to appeal to collectors they way TRU is trying. And considering this was the first year since 2003 we didn't get a supreme figure of any sort...do you really think either would have taken a $100 figure, even when they weren't willing to with a MOVIE?!

 

My preorder came in fine. Lots of people have them on the board here so its not hard to find

 

I had two pre-ordered...they came sometime in late October, I think.

I've still never seen one in stores, though. Still see MP Thundercracker, but never a Prime...not even a shelf tag for it.

 

Agreed! I was forced to resort to Ebay for mine as well, having never seen any in store.

 

I was able to order mine on TRU website.
