    FYI

    Universe Cyclonus, Hound, and the Starscream repaint are all moving to Hasbro's warehouse which means they should be shipping BEFORE the 12/22 ship date.

    I had a 3-day discussion with a Hasbrotoyshop.com manager trying to cancel my order that has all three of these figures in it and apparently I can't do it because they're already in the warehouse prepared to ship as of right now.

    Ah. I just ordered inferno, the legends, stormcloud, and vector prime.
    Since the prices were so good this month at hts.

    So are they going to hang on to those as well?

    I hope they fix their weird mailing errors. I just made a large order with them.

    X-Mas is their busiest month, so I always expected delays or slower mailing.

    I would hope so, I've already been charged for these, so they better darn well be here before Christmas.

    What the hell? I've had Cyclonus on preorder since October, but they go and ship yours immediately?

    Judging by poster's comments on TFW, Hasbro has been known to do that. The first orders to ship out are the ones that were made AFTER the orders that were preordered way in advance.

    I actually hope mine doesn't ship til next week. There's a nice little storm where I live and I wouldn't want it to dampen my "style".

    I agree with this. It's raining in SoCal right now and I'd prefer it if the boxes didn't arrive all wet and damp.

    You ordered them Friday and they showed up the following MONDAY?

    I find that hard to believe. I ordered mine on Thursday and they are still sitting in unshipped limbo.

    Well, I guess this IS HTS we're talking about. God only knows why they do half the stuff they do - but I've certainly never ordered from them and got it 3 days later. Did you pay for fast shipping or something?

    That's why it's always good to get to know your local postal carriers. :thumbs2: 
    Mine puts our boxes in plastic bags when there's a threat of rain.

    It's happened to me before. Depending on where you live, USPS can be very fast.

    I used overnight delivery via FedEx. Or maybe just a freak of nature, never did get that shipping notice for them. I also got Blurr and Swindle.
