    thanks, yep it’s the same link. After stalking the listing for two days I was able to order 2 slitherfangs before it shut me down.

    from what I understand cat food and toys are in two separate places and therefore will not ship together.

    mine says 8/10 and I just ordered them today.

    Doesn't it kind of defeat the purpose of offering me free shipping for having a larger order if it doesn't ship together?

    It's a sales mechanism like a loss leader in a supermarket, what offering the cheaper, or in this case "FREE", item or perk costs them is gambled on an additional purchase you make with them that you might've sourced elsewhere bringing in more profit overall. Big bidness just keeps recycling the oldest ideas!

    I don’t have the mental capacity to understand amazon logic.

    My Smokescreen and Arcee are supposed to ship/deliver tomorrow/the next day.

    Who's not going to actually get them? This guy, right here.

    That's a big boy, a big big boy, biggest boy a big big boy. Almost makes me want to bust Fort Max out finally.

    I'm sorry bro but don't lose hope, I had a two Gundam kits ship today that I thought I would never see.

    So Amazon cancelled my Skipjack today. Not sure why. I never got an email saying there would be a delay or anything. Went ahead and snagged a new preorder up at Hasbropulse. I had ordered Overload in the same order for the error price of $30. That's still available as of now.

    I'm wondering if Hasbro didn't cancel or delay it.

    I know there are a couple of stolen ones on YouTube, but we don't know how many were made and how many were even packaged.

    Don't be surprised if Skipjack pops up in-stock in a day or two. That's happened to me a few times.

    Ordered 2 Slitherfangs, not sure why I got 2... might as well have just got the 1, 2 isn't really much of an army lol. *shrugs*

    It's a shame some of the other Battle Masters weren't available too (Rung etc), I really like them but we just get a million of the same wave (1) here in my country.

    Wonder if they'll ever ship my Snapdragon I ordered back in Feb. :(

    I wouldn't jump to conclusions like that. Amazon's certainly cancelled all pre-orders on a given TF for no reason before.

    the only one that had an early August for me was Smokescreen, and I just got the email this morning telling me to confirm after they have no clue when it is gonna come out. I think those advanced dates where a mistake

    I never had that early of a date on Smokescreen but Wave 2 did have a mid August time frame, that was pre-pandemic though
