    It’s so weird that there’s no hint of what’s going on with the Headmasters, even Hasbro hasn’t commented that there’s an issue.

    Hopefully it'll be the same as the delay email I got for Blaster for you guys. Which turned into, was able to find in store and get a perfect version of rather than risking shipping :)

    My bumblebee and elita one just got cancelled this morning, but they still appear as pending in my orders. Nonetheless, that's fucking trash that they opened up for more orders of both items as if they had more only to cancel mine. How do I wrangle Walmart without attacking a low salary essential worker?

    I don’t want to get technical but Walmart is Hasbro’s actual customer, so Walmart has already bought the Headmasters wave from Hasbro. Transaction over. When or if Walmart can get their act together is none of Hasbro’s business. Hasbro can only tell us when the agreed upon release date is (yesterday) but it Walmart’s stock to do as they please. As usual, Walmart isn’t “doing”.

    I understand what you’re saying, but last week when the Castle Grayskull preorders didn’t open right away the Masters social media accounts were commenting regularly about the delay. The same thing happened with GI Joe’s social media accounts when the Target preorders had a slight delay a few months ago.

    Question - for those who preordered wave 1 Netflix from Walmart.com did you get them via that preorder or was it cancelled in the end? I ask because I’ve only ordered from wave 2 and I want to better understand how things will roll out.

    Are the “Master’s social media” people from Mattel?

    They are all official MotU social media accounts, so yes.

    Walmart.com is currently broken. I can search but can't access any listing.

    i pre-ordered wave 1 Netflix figures in July (so not the initial set of pre-orders, which i missed, but when they became available again later on), and ended up getting all my figures (Mirage, Refraktor x3, Hotlink, Megatron).
    it sounds like most people who got their pre-orders canceled actually pre-ordered right in the very beginning (ironically)... o_O 

    for wave 2, only my Elita-1 has gotten canceled so far - my pre-orders for Bumblebee, Optimus, & Nemesis (from July) are still intact.
    i added Soundwave 3 days ago, and re-ordered Elita-1 along with Nemesis (for free shipping, so i ended up cancelling my July Nemesis) yesterday - these all seem to be ok for now too...

    at this point, there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to Walmart's cancellation madness so i really have no idea what to expect - they really need to get their act together though, 'cuz their shenanigans are kinda ruining the whole point of pre-ordering anything at all... :confused:

    How did you add Soundwave 3 days ago when he's been sold out on Walmart's site for months? Are you talking about Netflix Soundwave - or one of the other series' Soundwaves?

    I pre-ordered Hotlink at the beginning. Got him past the point where it was shelf warming in stores and UM was clearanced. But I did get him so holding out hope that I'll get this wave too.

    Netflix wave 2 Soundwave was available to pre-order again on Walmart.com on 10/14 for like an hour and half in the afternoon before it sold out again.
