    Same… I ordered Transmutate and Slag. After being updated twice, Transmutate appears to have been shipped from WI and is scheduled for delivery here tomorrow. Slag was originally estimated for today but now shows as “waiting for product availability.”

    I had orders there that sat for two weeks and they weren’t able to get them out right. Called and they were no help. Had to cancel the order and order again and then they sent them right away. People that ordered a week after me were getting theirs. I still have multiple orders on my account that day partially shipped but I got whole order a year or two ago. Workers there feel your frustration as they have to deal with end users and even go through it themselves. Very poor setup that needs to be revamped.

    I've actually have GREAT experiences with GameStop. Order Confirmation, Notice items is getting ready to ship, item shipped, item delivered. 4 past experiences have been like this. Yes, they do ship separately which I think is a waste of resources, but that's their model now. Also, packed really nice and safe. I hope you get what you wanted.

    Most of mine were negative but after thinking about it I realized the in store dealings were great but the online ones (where most of the deals are) were where all the negative things happened. Their phone support is by far worst in the business. Extremely incompetent. the help in store has always been top notch.

    My Gamestop experiences lean towards negative. I've basically gotten free shipping on nearly all my orders; after complaining, i get the s&h refunded.

    I got my stuff last night from the Gamestop flash sale. IDK what it is about that Hotrod. But I got a 3rd one. Beast Wars Scorp sucks... big fail imo on that figure. But anyway. My stuff still says awaiting carrier pickup...

    Friend of mine said there were a few Rodimuses (Rodimii?) at the Livonia Target - he snagged me one but he said there were two others with kinda squished boxes if you don't mind that

    As much as I hate their online stuff, GameStop has the ark online now. 159 which is cheaper than any other place selling it. Ordered one and in just a matter of hours it was shipped.

    Yep, just got mine yesterday! It distributors don't want to deliver to Target/Walmart/Walgreens/etc, I'm getting my stuff online with FREE shipping.

    Belleville Walmart had two Netflix Sparkless Seeker sets. Nothing else of note.

    I got two of those ''Shipping Soon'' notifications each day last week for a single order. Never had the spam notifications like that before from Gamestop.

    Well it’s Sunday now and it did show up today in excellent condition. Something rare for a box to do from GameStop so I am happy. Now just have to find some fillers for the gaps in it.

    There's one filler kit on eBay that I'm aware of. Not sure if anyone here actually got ahold of it yet.

    Haven't been in here for awhile.........
    Anyways, not sighting related. Has anybody been to the AMC Rosedale theater in the past couple years? I know since covid hit not many people are going to the theater but I'm just curious what their place is like.

    I really wanted to see TFTM in the theater. It literally comes out on my birthday the 26th. We haven't been to another theater since Marcus Oakdale switched over to recliners. Last time I recall going to AMC it had the ol school seating setup, was terrible compared to our usually bougie place. I definitely would rather go to Marcus but idk if the movie will be playing there, doesn't show on their app or website but AMC Rosedale has it and you can buy tickets now. I checked their website and I didn't see anything stating that they had stadium seating or recliners. Any thoughts?
