While in Target today, I saw MPM ratchet and Earthrise voyagers $3 off.
.

 

Got a $5 gift card offer for $15 purchase in the mail, so I ordered Airwave (who is already discounted). Funny enough he's set to arrive at the same time as my Wave 3 guys.

 

Sunstreaker, Trailbreaker & Runamuck are now estimated to ship November 16. I didn’t have to approve the delay, which makes me nervous they’ll be cancelled.

 

^Same, got email Sunstreak and Trailerbreaker delayed to Nov 16.

Guessing ~4 more of these until auto cancel.   

 

Oh hell no.

I'm telling you I bet it's people who did the buy one get one half off who are top of the cancellation list.

 

My debit card has what appears to be a preauthorization charge for Runabout and Thrust even though I placed the preorder on 10/16. Has anyone else received random preauthorization charges for Target preorders? I haven't noticed this before, but it's pretty annoying unless it's about to ship early.

 

Yes, Target will repeatedly preauth your card from the time you order until the item ships.

 

Thats the way target works. They will keep charging every week. I had charges every week from feb until they cancelled my judges a few weeks ago and kept charging fasttrack and runabout so i just cancelled them. Said the hell with bogo50 deal. It wasnt worth it anymore.

 

Thanks, that's what I was afraid of. What an absolutely obnoxious practice.

 

I have a very hard time thinking these won’t show up a la Quint. Hasbro subbed Starscream for Quint in the case with Snapdragon at some point. They would straight just not ship cases of Wave 4 for us to not get these.

 

My Runamuck and Trailbreaker pre-orders became backorders. ???

 

Yep, a lot of people posted earlier the same issue.

I hope it doesn't go the way of Quintesson...

 

We pre-ordered Thrust only. Still listed at same release date for us.

 

Got my Runamuck delivered today. The other 3 from Wave 3, all automatically delayed/backordered, as others have noted. All 4 ordered during the BOGO pricing, so I'm 1/4 on these from Target.

Also, I was in fact able to take my still sealed Scorponok back to the store, return and re-buy with my 25% off coupon. Also had a "get $10 gift card for $40 purchase" coupon so the final take-away price before tax was $110.

 

No logic to Target. My Sunstreaker and Trailbreaker were shipped and arrived yesterday. Ordered in March with the Bogo sale. Meanwhile my Runamuck and FastTrack are in backorder purgatory until at least mid November. Even though they were all ordered at the same time and are in the same wave. Do they just decide to partially fill everyone's orders to make as many people as unhappy as possible? Meanwhile there is no where else to buy these guys now. Praying to find them at retail or for amazon to bring them back in. My days of pre-ordering from Target are done. Not worth the discount if half the time the order never even gets filled.

 

Got lucky and saw Thrust was available for preorder again just 5 minutes ago and snagged one! Then after I placed my order he was no longer available. Hopefully more become available for others who missed out like I did!

 

Im sure he will like the seekers. Just might be after christmas before most of us can get

 

Preorder is back again! Got mine! Thanks!

 

It will be ironic if I end up getting Runabout but then miss out on Runamuck.

Dagnabbit! I should have taken a break sooner! (But good to hear you got one!)

 

I sure hope so. Amazon screwed a lot of people over with their exclusive coneheads set...

Yes and I’m hoping Thrust continues to become available for those of you who need him still. Sounds like one fellow member got his Thrust today, so at least one more member got him. Hopefully you’ll be next!
