    Yup, and I just had some stuff cancelled. Very annoying

    Same here. Also had to approve a delay for SS Blitzwing.

    The annoying part in all of this is that I've held both figures in my hands while standing in the TF isle at my local Target.

    Curious as to why you don't just buy it at the store and cancel it, since you're already there and you know the condition of the figures too, unless you got it on sale then nvm. I've seen other folks post the same scenario as well. If I see it at the store already I go ahead and get it.

    I just got struck by the cancellation for not accepting an email, but I have no email. and they won't add it back to my pre-order because it's not in stock and they can't.
    COOL.
    COOL COOL COOL COOL COOL.

    Because most of us that are running into this have preorders from one deal or another in the past, like the BOGO50% or 25 off 100. If we buy it now, it's at full price (although they happen to be running the 25/100 again)

    That's why I said if you got it on sale then nvm. I have seen people who paid regular price on them online still skip out on picking it up at the store when they've seen it...

    I'm not attached to having Quintesson(s) in my collection, but I pretty much used that $15 Quintesson deal as an excuse to not spend $70 on the SDCC set, and if Target.com ends up cancelling my Quintesson order, I'm not sure how I would feel about it or if I would even bother trying to get one at MSRP, lol. :p o_O

    My SS Blitzwing just got cancelled this AM. They let me approve my Skipjack delay though. Ordering from Target is about as reliable as a weatherman's forecast

    This year has been a crapshoot. After my Allicons were cancelled I was afraid that might happen with my BOGO Blitzwing so when I saw it in store I picked it up and managed to get them to price match to my preorder.

    Worried about ER Wave 3 deluxes suffering the same fate. I only got Smokescreen from Target, Airwaves are delayed over and over...

    Same. They claimed I didn't approve Blitzwing fast enough, even though I did it the moment the approval email popped in.

    Ended up ordering both from Amazon.

    Gone again now, unfortunately. I would have liked to pre-order Sunstreaker.

    I would love if I could catch Sunstreaker + Trailbreaker on preorder before Saturday. Would be able to pair them with the announced SS86 figures for the discount.

    Restocks are generally random right?

    Sigh. 5th email from Target needing approval for yet another Quintesson Judge delay. 10/30 now.
