The Good: The Paoli twins and Stalker arrived yesterday. All three look fantastic in person. I can't wait to review them. I also can't wait for the waves of five to start arriving.
The Bad: I also received the email to approve a delay on Outback. "Scheduled to arrive yesterday-October 23". LOL. I am convinced at this point that they'll all show up at an Ollie's in Iowa and one dude will buy them. I have to wonder why we aren't going through this with the Python Patrol figures. The Ugly: I did order a Selfie Series Snake Eyes with the intention of putting the head on a different figure. Unfortunately I missed the fine print where Hasbro recommends you DO NOT remove the head from the figure. My son says he saw a You Tube video where they claimed the heads are resin and would break if you try to remove them. We'll see, I guess. I suppose in real life I wouldn't complain if I had Snake Eyes' body... |

I just found I received this email as well. This is so freaking frustrating and uncertain from Target. In the end half the time I get these emails I receive my order. The other half get canceled by Target even after all the delay approvals. Even though I would find product in my local store. Most recently, this happened a lot with Retro Batman stuff on the early waves.

Target had me approve a delay for Outback last week. Then today I had to approve a delay for the rest of that wave. I hope this doesn't keep up for long and these actually ship soon. This is getting to be really annoying. It's been almost exactly a year!

For once having a backup order on Pulse might payoff with TF Outback. I’m starting to think Target will not deliver on these. This constant approval delay reminds me of the online Cobra Island orders that were never fulfilled. Now Hasbro Pulse just needs to ship out there stock of these Target figures and who knows when that will be? I figure approving delays is going to be a weekly occurrence with these until they eventually cancel them.

So I'd take that to mean they're likely to appear on Target shelves in the next 2-4 weeks, and hopefully in embarrassing abundance. The real kicker is - imagine being around for the Baroness/Cobra Trooper/Beach Head distribution debacle in early 2020, the Viper/Firefly/Sorry not you Roadblock debacle of late-2020, and the Major Bludd less-but-still-a-blunder cockup of 2021, and think *TARGET'S WORST IS YET TO COME!"
