    I may try using paypal tomorrow. Even though it's recommended to have login saved, I don't really trust it due to hackers to if my phone was stolen.

    In line to check out. Well this is new.

    Edit: Nope missed it. I got Hulk and GB-Optimus so I'm happy with that for this year's lineup.

    Three days, three different experiences. . .weird.

    Today, I it actually started earlier at 11:56. I got the "waiting in line" which is a first. And then the checkout process for some reason took a lot more clicks then when I got GOP. I'm going to assume the waiting in line is due to higher demand from SW people but the more-clicks-to-checkout I'm not sure why.

    Refreshed it at 12:00 and it was actually available to add to cart again. Still no success checking out though.

    And of course yesterday I got the "too many request to the website" error right when it became available. Weird.

    EDIT: It was just available again a minute ago. Are they staggering the release?

    Has the Captcha checkbox always been there during checkout? Didn't notice that yesterday.

    I don't think these are coming back in stock, I think it's an issue where whatever measure they have in place that is suppossed to close out order acceptance is slower than the order prossessing system. But who knows, I'm kinda done with Pulse anyhow. I haven't had any benefit from being a member yet, and feel no need to re-up next year.

    This happened yesterday as well and BS because if it kept open we'd be able to complete our transactions. I told Customer Service about it yesterday. They were surprised and looking into it. I would encourage you to open a case.
    Totally a new thing. But good to avoid the bots.

    It would have been cool to have the BF figure but I'm a TF first so I'm happy with GOP. If the experiences were consistent I could have at least called it SDCC training but . . .

    Alright, it's almost midnight here. G'night all.

    Can you tell me what happened yesterday? Since I had three different experiences listed I have no idea which one you are referring to.

    EDIT: Going back I confused your post with Gangu's. I take it you mean the coming in and out of the cart.

    Thank God it didn't happen for Hulk and MP-10G. Those were the two I really wanted and landed both as well. I man Boba Fett will always be a collectible to shoot for, but wasn't my main interest either.

    So, was anyone able to get a Boba Fett here today?
    I was in the same situation of the cart jacked/sold out/in stock cycle. Don't even understand what happened there.
    When it went online around 11:57, I managed to get into the final process to complete the order in about 8-10 seconds and when I clicked on complete order, it showed as sold out.
    Is hasbro allowing shopping bots in their site? That sounds too fast to be humanly possible to complete the whole process.
    And if there are any bots, anyone knows which are people using? XD

    I got Boba. He went in and out of stock three times with the third time being final. I should say that he actually went online at 11:56 so you were already a minute late (unless your clock is a minute fast). There was a new captcha thing before you could go to payment that was supposed to stop bots (it wasn't there yesterday). Not sure how well it worked though.

    Never bought any of the other exclusives. How well do they pack them or do any of your's arrive MC? Because when mine arrive the first thing I'm going to do is buy protective cases for them. If I can find one.

    Ok, maybe my clock was off, but I indeed watched him go in stock for the 3 times.
    What captcha?!!! I just received a weird "in line for payment" page.

    I got that checkout que as well which I hadn't seen before either. I'm not sure why you didn't see the captcha, but I didn't see it the first day, just the second. Maybe it only showed up for those who tried to check out too quickly.
