Hasbro Pulse did randomly ship my Boba Fett figure today. That wasn't even supposed to ship until June. I wonder if they did it just because I started canceling some pre-orders and they felt the need to appease me a bit. I just have a hard time believing it is a coincidence, but it very well could be.

I see a temp charge on my card from Gamestop, so I'm hoping that's a good sign Flint and Lady Jaye are en route.

Hindsight being 20/20, I'm actually pleased Castle Grayskull was delayed. I'm mostly caught up on the Origins series (through wave 4), but if I can't get the Target exclusive Keldor/Kronis 2-pack, I'll sell off what I have and cancel my Castle preorder. That pack is too sweet and the completionist in me won't be interested in the line without them (and I refuse to pay the current eBay going rate for them, holy cow).

It’s uneven distro of a very small amount of product. If you live in a big city and stores get a case each then one collector or scalper could wipe out the entire case. In smaller towns you have a better shot, which is why we heard stories of folks finding multiple cases of Troopers in smaller areas.

Until the product numbers rise, Classified will continue to be difficult to find in the wild. For me, online is the way to go.

The last few times I found the viper was 2 times at one store in Decatur AL. It’s a small city but there are Joe collectors around too. That was where I found Zartan and the Cobra Infantry trooper.

My goodness. I was wondering how much that set was going to go for on EBay. Sheesh. I sure hope one of my local Targets ends up getting those in stock at some point otherwise there is no way I will get them.

My card was charged too. But in my GameStop account it reads "waiting on stock." Is that normal?
