    Well my AU Prime shipped Friday and was supposed to be delivered today. 9pm last night I get a random knock on my front door - Amazon delivery of Prime. By the time I got to the door, they were already gone. While I appreciate the “early” delivery, 9pm on a Sunday is ridiculous to be doing deliveries to residential addresses.

    Zombie Prime shipped Saturday and showed up yesterday afternoon. Better than the Wed arrival that was predicted. :) 
    Was in a box with air bags and box was undamaged. Doesn't seem to have the reported chest issue either. The "kickstand" for the trailer is really loose though so I can't bump it too hard when it's in "deathbed" mode.

    It still says my next Studio Series wave (Topspin and friends) will be arriving by this weekend. Somehow I doubt it... but let's see.

    So Target has been pretty accurate with releases and my order says I will get it by September 7th. I'd say it will release on Amazon within the next few weeks

    My Target order says the same, however people have reported finding Snapdragon at Target within the last few days so hopefully it will be sooner than that.

    Which means we'll probably get order send outs in a week or so. I know that is roughly the move up for Doubledealer.

    I think, I'm not positive, but Amazon has to give the traditional brick and mortar stores a chance to get the figures out first. That might explain different shipping times between Amazon and places like target and Walmart

    I never heard that before. It almost sounds too nice for Amazon to do.

    I think target and Walmart might be afraid that they'd lose too many sales to Amazon so it's either this way or they stop carrying Hasbro products entirely. Like I said I'm probably wrong

    It could just be that department stores order earlier or have order priority, Amazon doesn't really care about other stores, being nice or what not, its likely all down to their suppliers and order dates etc, sometimes Amazon gets in figures before its seen in some areas, sometimes not but retail is almost always ahead of Hasbro Pulse and BBTS, in terms of Hasbro Pulse, they likely fulfil other stores before themselves

    It's not Amazon's, but just how Hasbro's distribution goes.

    ...no. Just....no. That's not how it works at ALL. It is literally first come, first serve.
