    They were in stock, though it only seems it was for around 15 minutes at most. Mine are scheduled to arrive Saturday. No idea how many were put up. Possible that like with the Target seeker 2-pack they’ll pop up in small random batches over the next few months.

    So upset I didn’t wake up 20 minutes earlier, I really really want Dirge & Ramjet!

    Saw runamuck and fastrack were up for reasonably soon pre-order with prime-shipping so I took a gamble.

    Wait what? Yours are arriving in just a few days?

    Wonder why my order is set for next month then. Anyone else's like that?

    I got my order in 2 minutes after it was posted they were back. Maybe that had something to do with it. Though I have been having most of my recent orders pushed back, so it might happen again.

    Well, that certainly sucks. I had been hoping for a Conehead restock. Figures it would come at the wrong time of day for me. I'd like to think they'll pop up again, but I probably shouldn't get my hopes up too much I guess.

    Okay, hm. I'm wondering if I should hold on to these Runamuck and Fasttrack orders, or go ahead and just order the full set from entertainment earth. From amazon I'm fairly assured I'll get these Nov 4, with the EE it's not giving a specific date.

    That a worthwhile gamble or not?

    Smokescreen's ETA was updated a week or so ago to arrive Friday and I was just charged for him, so that would complete Wave 2 for me.

    It looks like Trailbreaker and Sunstreaker are shipping separately, makes no sense.

    What exactly are people referring to when they say "misfired pins" for Ramjet's shoulders? Mines sitting on the shelf in jet mode, but I don't recall any difficulty when I transformed mine. Now I'm curious...what should I be looking for?

    Yours is probably fine then.

    This one is mine below, I circled where there shouldn't be a gap(s). It prevents the chest piece from fitting over flush. In the 2 pack thread, somebody fixed theirs, but was too surgical for me to try, ymmv. Here's their fix/link: Earthrise Prowl/Ironhide And Ramjet/Dirge Sets Revealed

    Sweet, even though the Conehead order said it was arriving next month, it actually just shipped and should be arriving tomorrow.

    That’s great, it’s a shame they haven’t been more widely available.

    I don’t know what the deal has been with Amazon as of late. But something needs to change with how they process or handle items. I’ve had two items damaged and never received in the past month, and every package I get from them the item looks like it’s been kicked and stabbed. Speed and low prices are the only thing they got going for them as of now. Anyone have any idea why this is?
