All I got was my HISS. All my figures have been delayed. The email I received initially said that they have been delayed until 12/1 but my order status at walmart.com no longer has any date estimate. My AWE still claims to be arriving tomorrow but certainly hasn't shipped.
Honestly, this really pisses me off. I've been back into toy collecting for almost a year now and I can summarize the entire experience by saying "pre-orders". It seems there are no real toys to be had, just pre-orders everywhere. And even those are hard to secure (Target) then you get your pre-orders in at walmart.com in the first few minutes of the first day they are available yet the orders get delayed when the time comes to ship them. Meanwhile, a bunch of other people around the country are lucky enough to find these figures in stores. I'm already seeing photos of the wave two of retro figures in stores! We never had a single figure of wave one in any of our Walmart stores here. I tried to be patient early on by giving the benefit of the doubt, "Well, COVID..." but that's no excuse. Look at the toy departments in all these stores. I don't see a shortage of any other Hasbro brand. The Nerf wall is full. Transformers are everywhere. I see a ton of Marvel figures every time I go to any store... Wizards of the Coast... Milton Bradley... Meanwhile, the story of GI JOE is empty pegs, impossible pre-orders, delayed pre-orders, EBay exclusives... It's just good old-fashioned incompetence that has screwed up the release of this line, not COVID-19. I don't understand screwing over the customers with pre-orders. I agree 100%. I got my Hiss but nothing else. I was unable to secure the AWE in a pre-order. To be totally honest, I really just want the Hiss and AWE. I’m really disappointed in the figures... |

Same. Except after receiving my 2 Hiss tanks, I had a second order for 2 more that they cancelled. Then the Strikers which were to be delivered tomorrow were said to be delayed today. My Baroness, SShadow, and Snake Eyes x2s are also delayed. Even the Marvel Legends movie Cable figure I preordered at the same time is delayed. Not sure what's happening here.

I pre-ordered the Hiss Tank and Awe Striker. I received the Hiss which came on Friday. I have no idea when the Awe Striker will be shipped. In the email I received it did let me know that I could cancel my order, but fuck that at this point. Just send me what I ordered.

My buddy got our four H.I.S.S. tanks last Thursday. Just a matter of me meeting up with him to pick mines up.

I've only received my HISS as well. Part of my Wave 1 order says it arriving Thursday (Baroness & Snake Eyes) but the rest of the order (two Storm Shadows, a Baroness & another Snake Eyes + AWE Striker) are all "Delayed - check back later for status update." Got to admit, I'm getting concerned that it is all going to be cancelled.

Just got a new delay email. This time for the A.W.E.Striker. I preordered 2, but this shows a delay for only 1. No clue what is happening there. Nothing good, I think.

I too received my delay e-mail for the AWE striker.
That now makes every item pre-ordered from walmart. Better off just going to the store and buying them in person. |

My Storm Shadow just got cancelled. This pisses me off because I ordered immediately when they went up, so preorders mean nothing to them. And if course they were never stocked at any of my towns 5 smarts.

I did receive the HISS tank, though. That's something, I guess. |
