Why did the wave with Han Solo Lando and the new Stormtrooper get forgotten about for preorders? EE, BBTS, Dorkside all had the proceeding wave and the two after it, but not that one? Did I just miss the preorders? That wave will be like wave two; disappeared and never to be seen. The local Walmart’s all skipped wave one and went straight to wave 3. Target is still on wave one.
I will never get that new stormtrooper (nor the multiples that I want). |

It is weird. It's still up for preorder on some other sites.
That being said, one thing Walmart has shown is they'll just sit on stuff for months. They'll probably all get dumped at once to clearance in September or something. |

This line might do all right if you could actually buy them

No shit. It is frustrating. It is beyond ridiculous.
I’ve seen a lot of pictures on Twitter of ripped/damaged cards from people who were actually able to snag Skiff Lando from WM’s website. And others had their order cancelled. I don’t know which is worse, striking out at retail or experiencing an epic e-tail failure like that. I’d gladly give $20 each for the few I want as long as they arrive in a Star Case. $25 if they are a store exclusive.

Put me down as someone who got crumpled cards from Walmart’s ship to store and who would gladly pay a little more for mint, Star Cased figures.

Offer a collector targeted mint figure carded in a Star Case on their own site. It would be a huge success. They are asleep at the wheel.

I got lucky, my Lando arrived in a clean-mint package, despite the fact that they put literally ZERO padding in the box. No idea how I lucked out there.
