The only thing worse than having to go to Wal Mart, is leaving empty handed. Still haven't seen one thing at any Wal Mart in a one hour radius.
I did finally see the new He Man figure and it's an easy pass. It's a shame because Battle Cat looked great. I did see 3 G1 Blasters. Are they supposed to be rare? |

I received an email from Walmart today (which I immediately dreaded would be a postponement or cancellation) and was informed my AWE Striker should be shipping on 10/6. We'll see, but I'm hopeful.

So I just received a status update for a preorder:
"We wanted to let you know that your preorder item release date has changed. The updated release date is 12/01/2020. Please review your order details below. We're sorry if this date change is an inconvenience. The product manufacturer controls the release date for this product and we'll ship it to you as quickly as we can once it's released. If you have any questions, please visit our Help Center. Please do not reply to this email. This mailbox is unmonitored. Order number: Order date: 9/1/2020 Sincerely, - Your Walmart Customer Care Team Ships from Walmart Item Name G.I. Joe Retro Collection Baroness with Accessories Ships By 12/01/2020" Besides the bullshit about "the manufacturer controls the release date," the main point is they're delaying delivery of some of these preorders. I apparently ordered another Baroness on Sept. 1st that I've forgotten about. My original preorder from July hasn't changed, so maybe they're only delaying later orders.

Got the status update email for my order. Shipping on the 6th now, supposedly. Will prolly hit up the local WM tomorrow and see if I can't grab the vehicles. Would go ahead and cancel the preorder if successful.

This will be my modus as well if I can find the vehicles/figures. So far nothing has shown up in my area, not even Wave 1 which was pretty plentiful in my state initially.

I just got an email from Wal-Mart, too. My pre-order was bumped to a 12/01 ship date for Baroness and Snake Eyes. That order was placed 7/17/2020 (the day they went live). I placed that order at 11:00am Eastern. That's within the first minute the pre-orders went live. I ordered one of everything in that order and only those two figures have been bumped so far. I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop.
If they bump the rest of my wave 1 order I'm going to nuke everything but my Scarlett pre-orders. I'm not going to dance around with them on this stuff. If they don't want to sell it, they can keep it.
