    Any pushback on any product, especially around this time of year until November is a stay of execution on my wallet.

    Damn, I'm glad I only collect CHUG. It'd be a freaking wallet-killing year otherwise.

    No biggie on Omega. I can wait. For a little while at least.

    Just talked for customer service at Amazon. It really is a sham. Anyone that has expected delivery for tomorrow will not get it. She said they are not only out of stock but they don't know when they will get more.
    I went ahead and ordered from Pulse.

    I wasn't planning to get Omega at first but with a little extra time to save up now, I just might.

    We do know for sure that Skywarp and G2 Sideswipe sets will be Amazon exclusives, right? Or is that still up in the air? All i've seen was the sideswipe set says amazon exclusive on Robot Kingdom, not heard anything about Skywarp. Just got curious after this Target Redwing situation.

    I am actually glad my Omega Suprme preorder from Amazon got pushed back to October. By then my MotC Snake Mountain should be paid in full.

    Got my Jetfire, Galaxy Prime, and Smashdown today, after a hangup at a distribution center delayed them from being delivered yesterday. Smashdown's card is a little dinged, but the other two look ok.

    My jetfire order says Wednesday next week...not holding my breath, so I ordered from pulse, and The fandom52019 code didn’t work for me.

    Now...let’s see who ships first.

    For Titans, I usually hold off for a while and wait for them to go on sale. I bought FortMax for 130 (but 80 came from credit card points) and got Trypticon for 100). Guess this means just that much longer.

    I too have joined the club and ordered from Pulse. Discount code worked for me by the way.

    Gave up on amazon too, ordered on June 26th so I didn't really have much hope but wanted to see how fast they were after they opened for shipping Transformers overseas. Cancelled and ordered from Robotkingdom instead.

    My Amazon Jetfire is ostensibly stated to arrive sometime before Wednesday is done, but the little graph thing doesn't even list it as shipped yet.

    So was mine. It's not coming. See my post up above. I talked to customer service.

    They never got enough stock to cover the pre-orders but never bothered to tell any of us that.
    I pre-ordered in March by the way.

    I long ago stopped preordering things from Amazon that weren't Amazon exclusives because of stuff like this and the numerous cancellations without any notice. It just isn't worth it IMO.

    I will say, what with Omega Supreme being delayed, and the number of Jetfire delays, That I have had good success with Amazon when it comes to past titan class purchases. I purchased Devastator, Trypticon, and Predaking from Amazon and they arrived no problem.

    My Skyfire shows as shipped and set to arrive today, but seems to have two different tracking histories.
    At the USPS site, it says it was picked up by a shipping partner in Baltimore at 07:34 on 7/2.
    At the Amazon tracking, it says it departed the Amazon facility in NJ at 02:33 this morning.
    Weird.
