Me too! I was also going to add: I’m not going to bother with the standard Quintesson and Alicon releases, because I’ll just get the versions from the Pit set. But then I realised that that’s most likely why the Pit isn’t up for order now - with Wave 2 (presumably) released later than originally planned, Hasbro won’t want too many people doing that and will allow the single releases to have some shelf life first.

Unlikely to be anything to do with Wave 2. According to the Fan First Friday streams, the Pit and other Hasbro SDCC releases will be available on Pulse in September. They are all set for the same time, whatever line they are from.

But if they had been SDCC exclusives they would have been released by now, because... well... SDCC has already happened. Although I assume that, as you suggest, there is no actual plan to do with sales, it's just a case of production having been delayed across the board.

It's merely speculation on my part. Who knows how production is really being affected in these strange times!

I can't be hooped staying glued to the internet for 48 hours with no idea when the orders go up.

Our shops have said they're getting it, so hopefully they'll plan ahead properly. But for them there's no win now. If they give a time, the sites will go down under the weight of the panic, and if they don't, everyone will moan about not knowing when they go up.

Yes, I can imagine that weekend not being fun. But I think I'd rather know when I'm going to miss out than be taken by surprise and missing out. At least I can plan my disappointment in...

Totally agree, nothing worse that completely missing out on something and wondering what if. At least if the site runs out like ID with Bluestreak you can vent your rage and hunt elsewhere.

I would like to see a system where an order is spread out, ie x units can be pre-ordered at 6pm, y units can be pre-ordered at 8pm or wherever. Putting it all up at once makes sites fall over. If I knew there were different times I would just log on once to order at the time that suited me.

HANG ON...
WTF is the point of the Quintesson Judge's chair?

An even greater sense of authority and superiority?

But it's a chair. With a seat for a bottom and arm rests.
And the Quintesson just floats above it.
I think I'll give it to Gnaw. He will use it properly.

Well maybe Kapow and ID will also have the Pit on sale on the 23rd. We can hope...
...well, kind of hope. Because I'll be on the road at that point. ARGH.

Might not be until the weekend rather than midweek, but it'll be there. Star have also said 'We'll have all convention exclusives'. Also, it's pretty clear now that Takara are doing all these exclusives too, so if we can't get them in the first instance and our shops see the demand is still there, they'll get them from China/Japan. |

I'm not terribly interested in the pit itself. I don't have space to display cardboard tat. I really like it as a concept, but I know it won't last long here, so I have kinda switched off my interest. Bailiffs and Prosecutors and that, I'd get them singularly, but...
