Picked mine up about a half hour ago. Pretty happy about that since it didnt come on til after i went to sleep lol.

 

If it is listed as a pre-order, the orders will be filled.

Your card won't be charged until it ships from HTS, but there will be a temporary pre-authorization on your card.

 

I remember something like that but I could swear you were safe as long as a single order didn't go over 4 of the same item. I know they were canceling orders where there were 5 or more per order because it happened to a buddy of mine who was managing a group order to save on shipping. They got screwed by that.

 

Got my Blaster this morning...but while waiting for it to pop up I lost the HA jazz I had to go with it... Happy and irritated at the same time.
Guess I saved $30 for now... I'll just buy it at retail.

Can't FREAKING wait for my Blaster now though!

 

Don't worry the Sgt Slaughters will be available soon...AFA Graded at 9.5 for $100 and 9.0 for $80. That is one of the few things that irks me that HTS does. Deliberately with hold stock to have graded.

 

They actually hold back stock for grading? I always thought they just took stock that didn't sell and had it graded.

 

How many does Hasbro really grade? If it's only a handful then that doesnt' really change anything in the long run.

 

If you don't have one, all it takes is for Hasbro to hold one back and have it graded. Effectively taking away your opportunity to purchase it. I do find it odd that the other exclusives have been restocked off and on today (except Galactus) and Slaughter is still no where to be found.

 

Still a handful that some fans won't get at a resonable price.

 

Well, at least Hasbro actually gives a lot of us a chance to get their exclusives on their site. After some of the MattyCollector horror stories I've heard, I'm glad I don't collect anything Mattel makes.

 

HTS is a ride through the park on a fluffy marshmallow cloud with naked super models feeding me hot fudge sundaes compared to Matty Collector. I shudder at the very mention of a new He-Man release.

 

My comments on this phenomenon from a couple of years ago.

 

I got Blaster this morning! Yeah! Wish I could find Soundwave for a desent price now...

 

At least got my hands on Blaster, I guess I shouldn't hold my breath on Sgt. Slaughter.

 

Hasbrotoyshop now has the SDCC exclusives available

The title pretty much says it all for those who want them at retail price.
here's the blaster link sense i have it out to pick up.

This was posted yesterday with a promotion code to boot.

Mighty Muggs Prowl and SDCC Blaster On HTS!

 

Yes, welcome to yesterday morning.

Did they ever get more of those GI Joes that people went mental over not getting?

 

Oh, the Sgt Slaughter one? Don't think so. From what I heard, he was never in stock.
