At Movies Unlimited, using promo code "MU23JUN". Army build away!
Also, since I get a lot of questions about MU, I am pleased to debut: Stalemate's Movies Unlimited Guide Ordering Newly revealed pre-orders usually go up the morning AFTER everywhere else. Sometimes two days after. Their pricing sometimes goes up after that first day so I always try to order as soon as possible. They almost always have some sort of 20% off coupon code going which is what makes it worth buying from them. It's usually in the format "MU[2-digit year][3-letter month]" ie "MU23JUN" is the 20% off code for June, 2023 They do a pre-authorization to your credit card when you place the order which drops off after a few days. They don't actually charge until the item ships. Shipping They ship each item as it arrives and shipping is free on all orders over $50. They ship in brown cardboard boxes with air pillows inside of them. Their warehousers typically do a better job of selecting and packing collectibles than walmart, target, amazon, etc. Shipments will be marked as coming from "Alliance Entertainment, LLC" 300 Omicron Court, Shepherdsville, KY, US, 40165 They do ship internationally but don't offer the free shipping for international orders. The shipping cost will be calculated in your cart before you checkout. Some items are marked "special order" or "additional shipping charges may apply", for example some of the Threezero 12" figures. I've never had them charge me extra for these though. Arrival dates/returns/other info There are no "impending arrival" notifications. The best way to know when they are expecting to get something is to regularly check the "available date" field on the item in question. They update these constantly. You can also do a search and then sort by "available date newest" to get a look at a whole group of items (all Classifed, for example). They get new releases pretty quickly, sometimes even faster than Amazon and other retailers. For example, they got Rock n Roll and Bazooka before Amazon did. An item listed as "preorder" hasn't arrived yet. An item listed as "backorder" means they got some in, usually just enough to fulfill their preorders. They may or may not get more in the future. "Add to Cart" means they have the item in stock right now. Rarely, you may see an item on "preorder" when you do a search for in-stock items. This means they just got a shipment in and that item will change to "Add to cart" the next day. You can cancel items or even entire orders by emailing their customer service, either directly or via the form on their website. They are usually pretty easy to deal with but there is typically a delay of a day or two. I have had it happen once or twice where an item still ships a day or two after I email them to cancel. My assumption is that their customer service is not in the same location as their warehouses. They provide a return slip with each order. If something gets returned to them as undeliverable they will credit you back automatically (without even telling you!), so the best way to return something is to refuse delivery, otherwise you'll end up paying the return shipping. I've seen them carry products from Hasbro, Super7, Mezco, and Threezero. I have seen a few Mattel products but at higher prices and when I tried to order some they told me it was unavailable. They seem to be owned by the same parent company as Deepdiscount.com, as both ship in boxes of the same style which are marked "Alliance Entertainment", however their pricing and product selection is not the same.

MU is pretty great, but I don't understand how they stay in business.

Thank you for passing along that code! I just pre-ordered two more for myself.
I forgot about that site and need to get back in the habit of checking it because that is where I was able to get 2 Tomax, 2 Xamot and 2 Stalkers for like $80-$90. And it was right around the time of their initial release. They had them listed for cheap and I probably used a coupon code then too.

I actually got a good deal last year with them, i ordered the Viper 3 pack and they did a great job getting it to me and if i had any questions they helped me right away.
I pre-ordered both Grunt and Copperhead, with shipping was $46

Fuck it I turned an 81 dollar preorder into a 62 dollar preorder by going with these guys. It was worth the risk. Hope I don't regret it and end up having to overpay for torpedo later. Last edited by SlackerViper; 06-23-2023 at 09:54 AM.. |

I wish they shipped to the UK for free over ?50. As it is, even with the promo code, it's not much less than I'm paying here.

I honestly don't know how they stay in business either, with the way they ship everything in the united states for free in separate boxes. Volume??

In order to get free shipping over $50 on preorders, I suppose they have to have the same release day? I've tried a few combos and am not getting it.
