Oddly, my HISS Tanks shipped. I didn't get a notification of this, but when I went to view my order, I saw that tracking was available and the two I ordered are en-route. Everything else, which was the three figures and two Strikers, are still pushed til the 6th.
I pre-ordered so quickly that I wasn't even able to see which vehicles I was getting bc WM hadn't updated the descriptions yet. At this rate, I may well go on a Striker hunt tomorrow, as I really only want one and have come around to being able to live without the figures.
Incidentally, this once again mirrors the situation with the classic/retro Ghostbusters stuff from the spring. There were six figures in the set, the four Ghostbusters and a Stay Puft and "Green Ghost" figure (Slimer). I got the two ghost figures long before I got the four hero figures. It seemed like Walmart shipped them out fairly shortly after they hit the stores, as my packaging had the "who you gonna call" phrase on the card that the first run of figures sported, but, for whatever reason, no one got any of the hero figures via preorder from that run. They seemingly stocked the stores with what they had, then didn't have enough stock to fulfill the preorders. Or maybe the preorders exceeded what they got, so they stocked the stores in lieu of fulfilling the orders, which is contradictory, but whatever. All I know is that getting that line was a stupid headache between Walmart's handling of the preorders and Hasbro apparently not owning the rights to the catchphrase they printed on the packaging.
