I laughed when I saw 30th Bumblebee on preorder and clearance at the same time > 

 

That's because that's all they received instead of Springer and Blitzwing. A metric ton of 30th Bees. It's like they're the Walmart of the online retailers. Which considering how bad Hasbro has forked them over, is slowly becoming true. I would have been screaming at Hasbro fulfillment because they have GOT to be losing a lot of orders due to the B/M stores getting these in.

Personally, I'm still waiting because even after shipping in my POL (which thankfully is less than 180 days still) it's gonna be cheaper than expending the gas and time to hunt in store (as well as Target's markup). I'm still really aggravated. I know it's not their fault, but it's frustrating to have to play this game all the time of who is gonna have an item first.

 

Which bumblebee is that again? Can someone post a link?

 

I think its this one!

Generations 2013 Series 03 - Bumblebee Gold Bug - Transformers 2010 - 2013 Transformers Generations - Deluxe

 

Thanks!

 

couldnt resist needed a case of Bee, Trail, Meg and Orion

 

Great mold, I just have no use for another BB. I'd recommend jumping on Sandstorm if you have any doubts for finding him in store. 1200 units now in about a week. Not bad at all.

 

You and me both. Manufacturers/distributors drag their feet and BBTS pays the price.

 

Impossible Toys Sunstorm Tetrajet just landed, "Smashor" hit last night.

(Jet and ramming puns unintended)

 

Really? CRAP~! I just paid for the GI Joe FFS2... *goes to check his credit card balance*

 

Prankster as well

 

Metroplex is hidden...should be opening soon I'd guess.

Generations Titan Series - Metroplex - Transformers 2010 - 2013 Transformers Generations - Titan

 

Those metroplex pictures are awesome. Made me completely rethink getting him.

 

Looking forward to geting him

 

I hope it does not come anytime before August. I just spent 6000 bucks on our upcoming family vacation trip to Asia.

 

And yet somehow the majority of people on these boards think it's wrong to blame Hasbro for distribution.

I'm not saying it's JUST Hasbro, but clearly Hasbro could be doing a hell of a lot better.

 

Come on BBTS open that Metroplex preorder.

 

So all they RECEIVED was the 30th anniversary Bee that is still on preorder? Gotcha   Man people will jump at any chance to bash Hasbro. They give us new awesome 30th anniversary figures but screw them cause they didnt ship enough to BBTS. Paid $23 each for mine at Target with no hunting so I cancelled that preorder long ago.

 

At that price I'll take 10!

 

Awesome!

Thanks for the heads up. I wish I could snipe pre-orders  

Anyone know how long it takes for them to list an item once it's on standby like this?
