    My kreo/mtg/thanos/jabba package is now at the fedex office. Just have to go pick up the boxes later. I am hoping I dont have any packaging nightmares to face!

    Goto TRU's facebook and post those pics of how it was shipped and someone will get back to you faster than if you even call. I have had the best response from doing that, than ANY other way. They usually give me a discount on future orders or offer to give me those and send new ones, etc.

    My Kreo set came in Saturday. Amazing packaging job. It was like opening an archive box, there was triple padding, and it was double wrapped.

    Does anyone know if there has been any additional restocks (would be the second one now I guess)?

    Anyone recall how long it took HTS to take down the listings last time around? Seems like they were gone before September hit.

    Well with the KOU and Dino sets still in stock, I'm sure they're just waiting to see if anyone still wants them since they've sold so little.

    I couldn't find another thread strictly for the SDCC Class of 1984 Kre-O set so:

    I received mine today from an eBay seller - I am very happy except for one figure. My Megatron Kreon's chest printing is way off. Did anyone else have this problem? I have the old Megatron Kreon packed up somewhere - is the Multipack one the same figure? If so then I don't need to worry, but as he is now I am strongly considering buying another one. It looks really bad. Other than that, its an awesome set and only cost me $90 shipped.

    i love dinobots...BUT with tax and shipping that set is going to be right around $180 ish for 4 transformers....and that's where the brain overrides the plastic crack habit and clicks cancel....plus me owing all half of that set does not help their cause.

    I'm waiting for the dinobot set that BBTS is going to carry...then i'll order that one.

    Something shady is going on here. I know there were at least a few more cancelled extra MTG sets (mine included) that should have went up if they were going to try to make it "fair"... unless I missed them going back up?

    It has taken them a few weeks to sort through the orders from the 1st restock. they are likely close to being done and are shipping the last of the orders. If there are only a small portion of stock left (due to canceled orders) they may keep them to replace orders that get damaged during shipping, or they may be just selling them to employees instead.

    Sounds about right I suppose. But if they needed a few to replace, the cancelled orders should have never been put up in the first place? I'm assuming they had stock on hand for returns before they decided to re-list items.

    Do they actually replace sold out exclusives? Has anyone actually tried? Yes! Send it back. Oh we had an error we don't have anymore... No we can't send out your return, but we can give you a refund. :D  Kinda tempted to try with this legends set and see what happens.

    I wonder if employees get set limits...
