Mostly, yes. The refunds and gift cards were consistently "shut up" offers.

I consistently told them I'd like two things, nothing else:
1) fulfill my orders
2) connect me with someone in corporate who can explain the fulfillment/logistics failures that led to the orders being delayed and canceled.

Every time; "we understand, we apologize for the inconvenience, have a gift card." "we understand, we apologize for the inconvenience, I've refunded your order."

Every time the message was clear: "shut up and go away."

Here's hoping the "Partner Exclusive" section actually holds stock on these for more than 3 minutes. Timed Exclusive Hasbro. Do it.

Isn't it amazing? Despite the debacle that was wave 1, wave 2 was actually worse.

I physically saw Troopers twice, BH 4 times, and RB hung out for awhile. I have not seen FF or the Viper in the wild - ever. Couple this with the Popfindr blocking and it was bad.

Can't wait for wave 3...

Check out this video. As always, take it with a grain of salt, but it’s some positivity.

Get on the phone with them and find out what happened. They dared to tell me that I did not approve the most recent delay they emailed me. I asked them where I could forward the email I had confirming that their system did approve.

In the end, they sent me another dumbass $15 gift card "for the inconvenience." IIRC, in the end they refunded one of Firefly, the one Viper I did receive, and sent me about $55 in gift cards across the board. My only out of pocket was for the other Firefly (which I traded w/ firmpulse for a Viper). So net three figures and $32 in gift cards.

Ironically, I'm still incredibly mad about the whole situation.

Yeah, I did a chat with them, and got a $15 gift card out of it. But like you, I'm still pissed.

The only CI figure I never saw in a store (except for the one time a guy beat me there by 5 minutes and I saw him walking out with it) was the Viper. I saw multiples of BH, FF, Trooper, RB, and even Baroness and Bike, all on the shelf.
