That is the kind of neat gap filling we like here at Pinwig Towers.

RFC this week picked up on supposition that because Doubledealer's missile appears to be a repaint and is only in one image in this set that it's from something else, presumed to be a repaint of Doubledealer as Countdown's base.

I see In Demand have the Autobot clones in. Were we expecting them to get Amazon stuff in? I've lost track.

They briefly had the Ironhide/Prowl set in at an outrageous price. There clone price is more reasonable: that's about what it would cost with shipping from Amazon US, I think?

Anyone’s Ratchet and Lifeline set shipped? Mine says it’s due December 14th at the latest, but taking overseas shipping into account that doesn’t seem terribly likely right now.

Mine shipped on the 4th, estimated arrival the 10th. But so far they've arrived within a couple of days

I see. When I got Rung he arrived in six days, so I was thinking mine would ship on the 4th too. Hopefully all goes well anyhow.

Mine has yet to ship, but my friend (who ordered his same time I did, and is also in texas) has his already.

Mine shipped a few days ago.

And many others have been cancelled. Mine shipped a few days ago. I remember when preorders were a guarantee. You were reserving your copy early, which was a benefit to the company as well because it was a guaranteed sale for them. Walmart, Amazon, and Target are the three biggest sellers in america, and all three have become known ths year from randomly canceling valid preorders placed with them. (Walmart sometimes taking weeks to fulfill preorders long after the product is in stores) I shouldn't have to be sitting here stressing if Amazon is going to randomly cancel my Ratchet set, or Target is going to cancel my Thrust (they're starting their "please reapprove this product!" BS that usually precedes random cancellations, on my thrust). |

Post by Benn on Dec 8, 2020 14:09:42 GMT
Yeah, I had to reconfirm I wanted the Prowl/Ironhide set with Amazon. Fully expecting it to be cancelled in the next five days.
Not happy with it being so hard to get in the UK anyway, never mind pre-order not really meaning pre-order anymore. But we know Hasbro don't care about non-North Americans anyhow.

Ratchet and Lifeline are due today. *sigh* Yay. Lifeline. *sigh* Maybe its because I was prepared this time, but Lifeline isnt the joy sucking raging making moster that Elita 1 was. Maybe its the relaxing colour palette. Or maybe the original Arcee moulding fits in her pretender shell a bit better. Or maybe its that her arms dont fall off everytime I move them. |

My set has been ‘shipping now’ for two days. Bit bizarre.

Mine is seemingly lost in the postal system. It finally shipped on Wednesday, but FedEx still haven't had it and they thought it was arriving for me today rather than Monday. Hrm...

Well, he made it to Stansted yesterday, but hasn't moved since, and he's missed the latest date Amazon gave me.
Of all the bloody parcels...

Mine's been "out for delivery" all day. Another package sent through the mail showed up on my porch (delivered to the wrong address at that).
So now I'm so anxious I'm getting nauseous and borderline anxiety attack.
I gave up an entire day because of this, because this postman has a habit of dumping my packages on the side of the road if it won't fit in the mailbox, which is a quarter mile away from the house.
And he has done so at least once without scanning it into the tracking, leading that package to just vanish.
Edit: It's here and it was the lady (who's tge good carrier)!

Mine is still AWOL, and the delivery date is now ‘pending’.
If I miss out on yet another Ratchet I’ll be deeply, deeply fucked off.

A check, for end of year related purposes:
Who's got anything Galactic Odyssey?
Anyone got anything other than Ratchet? Do I recall Burns saying he had the clones?

Post by The Doctor on Dec 16, 2020 10:30:33 GMT
I got the clones, apparently free, due to an odd Amazon error. Nowt else.
