    Yeah, I'm definitely fearful of order cancellations but willing to wait to find out. Both SS86 and Kingdom are in their wave 1's so I think I have a good chance of coming across them in the future if the online orders don't pan out.

    What?! I was at Eagle Rock Target LAST NIGHT and there were none on the shelf or in the computer! They must have arrived and stocked today. Bummer.

    Been seeing the same thing lately. No SS 86 Deluxe, just older or fresh cases of 3 prior waves back. The wave with Chromia - Arcee - Elita-1. That was unexpected! :(

    I have to admit, seeing Studio Series Wave 8 is nice, it gave me an opportunity to pick up the SS-52 Arcee sisters I missed before. But doubling up on SS-49 with this and Buzzworthy repacks is unfortunate.
    Is it possible some of the reason your orders got cancelled and offerings for certain waves were light was due to Covid? Perhaps retailers cancelled orders for stores fearing a drop in revenue and they’ve been sitting in distribution centers until the manufacturers offered them again or at lower rates so they wouldn’t get stuck holding the bag? I mean it’s unlikely they produced fewer because no one could have predicted a sharp drop in retail sales so they had to be sitting on them somewhere in the supply chain. Maybe that explains why there have been so many repacks since last year?
    Just a theory. Perhaps we will see more of the 2020 waves start to get dusted off since the demand clearly exists still.

    That was me. I picked up the 2 Cyclonus figs (1 to open and 1 to keep sealed). I also picked up the Zoteki Grimlock statue.and they still.had some of the others in the collectible section. Next time you see me we gotta meet. It'd be nice to meet more collectors from this board in person.

    I ordered 2 Gigawatt from Walmart, hoping to get a blacked out windshield. Both look like the one I got from Target... smoked screen with the plastic trays somewhat visible
