How is it that these figures are on shelves at retail during a pandemic, yet I placed an order online within minutes of the preorder opening and they aren't scheduled to ship until October?

F'ing Walmart...

I hope the online orders don't come like that. I planned to display them on pegs :-(

Well, at least you have peace of mind you’ll get them. Instead of hitting up Walmart to come home empty handed.

That's assuming they don't decide to cancel my order for no reason.

My mind!!! I kept reading "stripper"! Lol

I’ve seen kids come along and literally rip the cards off the peg instead of just sliding them forward to remove them. Maybe that’s what happened here. It’s also possible somebody did it on purpose to discourage scalpers from buying them (I’ve read posts from people claiming to do things like this on forums before)
