I'm afraid you were right with your "ship has sailed" assumption.
I'm supposed to have a case coming in as a customer order but nothing has shown up.

I hope the guy who said he was ordering you case didnt accidently order you some combat heros...most of the stores I questioned again last night were still oblivious to this product and I had to get the extra shipwreck I had in the car with receipt so I could prove to them that they do indeed exist and they are not those stupid combat heros lol

I'm shocked he found someone willing to order them. It's like pulling teeth to even get them to look up the SKU to see if it's in the crates. Some nice managers to bump in to, but the moment you hand them the number when they ask if they can help... they shy away.

Well, I used a UPC for him to order them so hopefully that's not the case.
As far as these being "cancelled" I don't think that's the case. I got the June issue of the Joe Club Mag yesterday. They gave a page to these 6 figures and only called them Basic Assortment, as listed on the case. They didn't mention them being discount store exclusives or DG or anything like that. Not sure if that means anything at all but it might.... Time will tell.

Well I dont mean cancelled from DG, what Gyre had posted was a couple of months before they actually hit the states and he stated allhe knew at the time was that they had been "cancelled" to some degree. I mean cancelled from some other retailer, like Target or some online retailer, maybe it was a BBTS hting and they decided to dump it after the failure of the Marauders/Nok7 packs or even from the tail end of the 30 for 30 figures for the 30th anni that were axed. These figures were not meant to be at DG originally is my guess. Why its such a mess, they dont have pegs, they cant figure out what stock they have, its forced inventory to the stores in a simple box not the official Hasbro shipping box. It just dosent add up to me as being a long term thing in this apparence. Maybe later down the road after this test of sorts...but its just really wierd...nothing like it has been seen before since i got back into collecting lol... Then again I guess I cant think they would restock like a normal retailer would...maybe they will only stock 1 set per store per year lol..when they "git around" to actually putting them out...

What's on the cover of the June issue? I can't keep up anymore with if I'm caught up or missing one because of the constant delays.
