    Got the Galvatron pre arrival notice too! Titans Return Galvatron can now be shifted to my G1 Season 4 shelf.

    Ah, I just gave in and shipped Grimlock, Galvatron and Jazz. You can thank me when Hotrod and Scourge drop immediately.

    Awesome, I preordered 2 of Rodimus as he is my most anticipated figure. I’m hoping with Galvatron arriving earlier he isn’t far behind.

    I hit ship on my PoL yesterday afternoon, and now its packed and ready for Fed Ex. So they have gotten faster. Granted it was just the Super 7 Ultinates Conan wave 1 and Ultimate Voltron, so not a big order. Also it was 4 Dollar flat rate.

    And just like that, less than an hour after I got the pre arrival notice, they shipped Galvatron! Great news to start a long weekend.

    Do they charge when you ship from the pile of loot or when it arrives?

    Yes I have 2 Rodimus on order too, but old Hot Rod is still a decent stand in until he gets here. There has been some chatter that he is going to drop early too from places like Gamestop. We shall see!

    I just canceled my preorder on Pulse and reordered on BBTS. Will mine get added soon too?

    Wasn't planning on shipping my POL just yet, but Galvatron must be in my hands now. Ship, ship, ship!! I said SHIP DAMMIT! Lol. Very excited to see Galvatron dropping so early. Be nice if they could land Rodimus in the next week or two, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

    He's still showing as PO at BBTS. BBTS got a limited fulfillment of their order early and took care of early PO's.

    Why? It’s more convenient for me money wise and Pulse is always slow about getting stuff in.

    1.) BBTS is usually slower than Pulse, all the way around. This is a fluke and as stated, a partial early fulfillment. (You'll most likely be waiting months, now.)
    2.) Pulse offers free shipping after $50.00, BBTS will charge you at least $4.00 (plus they tax it, and the item.)
    3.) By the time you pay tax on the figure, shipping, tax on the shipping, you're paying (and I'm basing this on my state's sales tax...) $60.84 whereas Pulse would've been $53.36, costing you more money and more of a wait.

    This isn't more convenient, nor does it save you anything.

    I think we'll see more and more sightings, now. Guess there's no street date on the case he comes in, so he's fair game. Well, everywhere except Target because they hold onto those register locks like an Octopus clinging onto prey. (Target sucks.)

    Figures. I just hit ship on my PoL yesterday or day before and now Galvatron drops in. You're welcome?

    Edit: lol

    Like I said, it IS convenient for me. I reordered on BBTS and added it to my Pile of Loot because I order from BBTS a lot and now I’ll save more on shipping when I decide to ship my pile of loot. I’m moving in the Fall and everything in my POL is there so I can ship it when I want. You didn’t know that and you can’t declare it’s not convenient for me when you don’t know the full story.
