    Transformers War for Cybertron: Kingdom Deluxe Wave 4 Set of 4 Figures

    Not only that, but they've changed the Wave 4 wave case so it not longer includes them, and instead says "Secret figure" x2

    This change made after I placed an order for it while it included Pipes and Slammer.

    So do I take a hit to my preorder ranking if I cancel this when it was changed after the order was placed?

    I think its still Slammer and Pipes. If it was Tracks and Paleotrex it'd say so. I'm thinking/hoping they jumped the gun on the listing and were told to take it down. I'm keeping mine and if it's not Slammer/Pipes I'll email.them and have the other two returned before they ship.

    They changed the box assortment in the description the wave 4 deluxe pack too. Slammer and Pipes were there yesterday.

    Seems they got the memo late, either way I got individual PO’s locked in because I suspected it would change eventually.

    I'm in the same spot. I surely don't need another Paleotrex or Tracks but I'm concerned about how much a $90 cancellation will effect my ranking...

    I might wait it out until they put up pictures or confirm who the other two will be.

    I knew I should have done Pipes and Slammer individually instead for this exact reason. Should have listened to my instincts after all.

    Same. I asked them to convert my orders over to individual orders for the figures I actually intended to order and explained the above.

    That’s a good point, though. I wonder if they realized that the case split may be different and they might not be able to fulfill the Slammer and Pipes individual orders as planned until they are solicited the Wave 5 cases…

    Real weird, crazy how much of a cluster wave 4 reveals/preorders have been. But my Pipes order is still listed so here's hoping.

    Yeah, because we know there’s no way anyone could enjoy Tracks ;)

    Oooooooo, someone's in troooouble! noticed they have Shadow Panther and Waspinator. The wave listing is showing the other two slots as secret characters. Hope those two slots were not supposed to be re-packs.

    Still up and now with pics on TCP.

    They are repacks. Tracks and Paleotrex.

    Well BBTS knows they are coming. Your pre-orders and mine will still be taken care of, just not by October most likely. What was it January for Pipes and Slammer?

    Good thing I came here. Just went on BBTs to order another Pipes and noticed it was gone. Debating canceling the whole wave I ordered because I already have 2 Tracks and Wingfinger.

    Oh lmao I'll cancel it before I take another Paleotrex :lol  If anything I can see them cancelling existing orders for those 2 and making everyone re-order. I doubt BBTS would swindle folks on which assortment figure they're getting. It's not like they're Toywiz

    Exactly. I haven't had a pre-order drop this whole year. I have found a few figures at retail and cancelled them before they were in stock but oh well. I'm about ready to cancel everything and go somewhere else.

    I just canceled the whole wave and reordered Waspinator and Shadow Panther just incase that whole wave shows up early with 2 figures I don't need. Would be a waste of money.

    BBTS CS just responded to me, noting that they should be updating the Wave 4 case with its actual contents pending confirmation from industry figures.

    "Thank you for reaching out. Our apologies, we jumped the gun on that listing based on our own assumptions. We are waiting for an official confirmation from the manufacturer and as soon as we do we will update that listing. I understand that it shouldn't be too much longer now!"
