Might be an idea to do that if only because it looks like the lack of a proper listing means the postage hasn't been calculated properly - if that listing is right and the postage is currently $6.57, that's cheaper than is applied to a single DVD purchase from them at the moment.
However I thought the indication was that today's Fan Friday was about the SDCC toys now being channeled through Walmart? I know Star said 'a few' new figures in each of the lines to be featured today, but are we anticipating other stuff like these Amazon exclusives that probably won't get pre-orders at our import shops?
Are we close enough now to next weekend's original SDCC date that this is the big one?

Amazon having their own exclusives doesn't mean they actually get them in. Dead Prime release date came and went and my Amazon order went to 'not available'. I should have known after Siege Skywarp. From now on, if another store gets it at higher price, get it from there!
This does mean I have money spare now for today...

Mad, isn't it, how so much of a proper line now is exclusives? They haven't become optional add-ons anymore! -Ralph |

You're right, .co.uk is too unreliable but .com has always had their own exclusives in long enough to order them. Skywarp was there for quite a while. This set is currently just over £45 shipped. 1st Nov though. Seems a long way off for an Amazon order going up today. Hmm. |

Post by The Doctor on Jul 17, 2020 8:58:19 GMT
Yup. Still not available and this time I used .com. Release date was the 15th. Nowt shipped.
I give up on getting Amazon Exclusives from Amazon!
This, does, however, free up money for the Quint Pit...

Well a few weeks ago the Amazon Gi Joe Storm Shadow went up and that has an October release date. -Ralph |

Cool, cool. So it could be today then. I've put an order in anyway. Not missing those two. I can't see a twin deluxe exclusive set being cheaper than £45 anywhere else.

TFs at 4 though. I thought there was a Star Wars video thingie too, but I may have dreamed that as Pulse's facebook doesn't mention it.

The Apocalypse gives me anxiety, so I'm noping out now. I'll see what falls through the cracks later on.

Are Marvel and SW being announced elsewhere? I am still confused as to whether Wallmart's Collector Con thing today is something different. -Ralph |

I am still confused as to whether Wallmart's Collector Con thing today is something different. I don't think they are - the Black Series news sites aren't promoting anything happening today and there's nothing on the Pulse FB page. My reading of this is that the Pulse livestreams are to announce the toys going up for preorder at Walmart today as part of their 'con' thing. Whether there's more than that heading for Pulse itself it's hard to know. The problem is that we're almost at SDCC time, so everything that would have been out at that point is starting to leak and muddying the waters. There are Black Series rumours like a reissue of the Wampa for SDCC, perhaps going up today too. Wish it had been the Tauntaun, I want one of those. |

Turned out to be a cheap day for Ralph. Dirge/Ramjet and Prowl/Ironide are Amazon so no chance. Quint Pit is not until September on Pulse so no chance.
It will just be a Hubcap today then!

I think Hubcap will be around a bit.
I just ordered one from ID on the grounds there's nothing else to do at the moment, got all the way through including checkout and then it stayed in the basket and I've no idea if it ordered or not.
