    Cheap Titan Masters and Prime Masters may also be useful if you want to do some Shapeways stuff by @Trentulas or @Cha Chi.

    Damn, didn't even know that was a thing (don't really follow that kind of stuff). Now I wish I almost picked up a few more sets (and knew how to paint worth a damn). If I had anything in basemode, it would be nice to have them crawling all over.

    Interested in hearing this as well - I also pre-ordered the wave 2 Deluxes, Micromasters, and Voyagers. The Deluxes had a label created on Tuesday, the Micromasters last night. If the deluxes are in fact Wave 1 shipped by mistake, I'll be pretty unhappy. I'm in Maine, so EE's use of Fedex SmartPost (their free shipping option) takes about 10-11 days to reach me from their warehouse in CA. I'll try to have them recall the damn thing if this is the case.

    Mine's out for delivery now so I should know my fate in a few hours. @Shark Jumper told me that EE simply told him to mail them back (on their dime) and just wait for Wave 2 to come in stock. We shall see...

    EDIT: I mean I really hope I'm not sounding a false alarm here, but I did find it a tad suspect that they were shipping the Wave 2 deluxes so early. And I wouldn't wish for Shark Jumper to simply have bad luck (he's a friend and fellow A+ local), but at the same time I do hope it was just him, if that makes any sense? But I am really doubtful.

    I think more wave 1 deluxes just came back into stock last week on their website, so I can see how they maybe got mixed up as wave 2 instead? From an outsider seems like a pretty bad error to make if they filled everyone's wave 2 pre-orders.

    I'm a little surprised that EE didn't say "our bad, keep 'em" rather than request (demand?) the return of the erroneous merchandise.

    I called them on the phone and was told not to believe Message board rumors.

    I never mentioned a message board.....

    I think I will believe what I read here. This is a tremendous screw up and I can only imagine how many people this affected.

    Yeah it's true, all of it.

    I was so annoyed I told them to just cancel my order. Send back and I'll get them somewhere else.

    I took the plunge. I hope it's really them.

    If it isn't them but is the wave 5 pair, I don't think I'll be too mad, but it sure would be exciting to get wave 6 so early. Anything else and I'll raise some hell.

    Regardless, I'll let you guys know what they send me.

    I got wave 1 siege instead of 2 delivered today. :confused: 

    edit: Well, gotta wait til Monday to call them since they are on the weekends. Did they still make you pay the postage to return them, or did they email you printable paid postage label?

    Ugh that’s so annoying to have to look forward to making a customer service call once they are delivered. I went ahead and just got them from bbts instead and will cancel once they arrive.

    Also how patronizing that they told a prior poster not to believe rumors on the internet when they called about it before the same thing happened. I’m pretty soured.

    They pay for return postage since it's their mistake. They emailed me a return label.

    Did they tell you to place another order for Wave 2 or will they be fulfilling your paid order when the actual stock arrives?

    Thank you.

    I'm fine then as long as they ship me the real wave 2 deluxes when they come out.

    I have my Studio Series Leader Jetfire/DOTM Megatron coming in on Tuesday from them, and wave 2 (supposedly, lol :p ) Micromasters.

    Also, for anyone wondering, no new promo code included in the package I received from EE today.
