worth pointing out. the links for these listing say "Note, this item could be the original set but is most likely the running change repaints. That said, we can not accept requests for a specific variant on this item". so they technically could still send you the original sets.

Given that we are seeing wave 2 in stores I think this is an acceptable risk and will pan out. But posting the notice you did isn't a bad thing, shoppers should be informed. However I didn't post it because that info is in the link as you said for each order. I had a preorder for the repaints from BBTS, with the same notice as DorkSides about well these could possibly not be the repaints but instead the first wave. I switched my preorder to Dorkside because they got back to my request for updates on the preorder. And I felt a lot better about going with Dorkside after that. I'll post a picture of my order when it shows. Last edited by DaveViper; 05-22-2013 at 09:51 AM.. Reason: Too lengthy |

You can cancel a preorder before it ships no fees to do so. The info is on thier site. However I think your going to be sorry that you did ;)

I went to go place another repaint preorder and this time there wasn't any notices about how these could possibly not be the repaints. Seems it was removed from the repaint preorders.......interesting.

I noticed this too! I just hate to order them and them not be the repaint wave and then I can't return them because there obviously would not be a way to know unless I open the case. and dealing with online returns is never fun. I mean, it would still be a good price regardless. cuz with shipping the figures would still be not much more than finding all the DG figs in the store and I could just give them to my nephew if they were the original versions. although I would I probably keep the Trooper.
