    Amazon cancelled my Prime and Starscream.

    I just went and preordered all the Earthrise from BBTS, since it looks like Amazon is slowly cancelling all of them.

    The canceling is annoying, but these things aren't going to be hard to find. If mine get cancelled, I'll just wait for more stock.

    So... well, Blackwing is discounted down to around $7 if you need extra combiner limbs or want more custom fodder.

    Who knew he'd be that overstocked?

    Glad I preordered Earthrise through BBTS. Amazon really needs to figure this shit out.

    Nothing of mine has been cancelled yet, but I'm guessing it's just a matter of time before it happens.

    My thoughts exactly. Was initially pissed at the cancellation but Wave 1 of a new series, these things will be easy to find and I'm sure restock on Amazon etc. Still very annoying to have to keep an eye out for them when we thought they were a lock, but at least it isn't something from the tail end of a series.

    My Spinister came in a box with some other items I ordered. His packaging was all damaged like it was left outside! Not a big deal, everything inside was fine but strange.

    And now my Earthrise Prime is cancelled too. Oh well. I guess I'll wait for the restocks.

    Just got my e-mail for cancelled ER Prime too. WTH. Amazon used to be reliable with pre-orders.
    Oh well. I'm fully expecting more cancellations to follow at this point.

    My pre-order for Earthrise Optimus Prime with trailer and blue fists just got cancelled. That's ok, he'll probably go on sale for $29.99 at some point next year.

    Still have Grapple and Starscream, and the four deluxes on two separate pre-orders.

    Yeah, it's annoying, but I get suckered right back in with their low prices. :p o_O 

    That's pretty bad. Looks like it was f'd up before they even stuck into a bubble mailer. :p 

    I'd contact customer support and politely see if they will give you some courtesy credit for your next order. The worst that can happen is they say no, but since it was shipped in a box with other stuff, seems like they will offer it. It's not like you ordered it as "Amazon Warehouse" deal, right?
