So people now have to spend money on travel and a hotel to attend a show and then upurchase a 50$ toy? Buy it for double on e-bay would be much much cheaper.

Ah, i see, makes more sense.
And as for the stormtrooper, it was 2 years ago and was for the upcoming Episode 7 film. Everyone wanted one and there were storries on bleeding cool of people tripping eachother over it and it being chaos at SDCC. You were waiting for HTS but the second it was live that toy was sold out.

I'm worried that despite getting an email that my order is being processed and my PayPal account saying the payment is being processed, that I won't get one. The reason being is that "This is a temporary authorization to make sure your payment method will cover the payment. Your payment method will be charged when HasbroToyShop.com completes your order." My bank account hasn't been charged which makes me think HTS us getting ready to cancel my order.

Luckily, I had no interests in any of these sets. Because holy crap, s#it went down for so many pages in such a short time!
Gotta admit that I Tl;Dr most of them. But the gist I got is a torrent of disappointment. As usual. Gotta love those ultra limited sets, eh?
My sincere condolences to the ones who missed out and congratulation to the few lucky.
Come see my latest creation, R63 Megatron, the gender-swapped Megatron

It wasn't that bad for the TF only figures (excluding the Jetfire set). While Primitive OP sold out, I think it lasted at least 10 minutes, maybe a little longer. I think most folks who sat in front of their computers refreshing the site were able to comfortably score one. And the voyager TLK OP is still available. But yea, some of the other stuff was gone quick.

Fun statistic from yesterday: the in stock timing of just after 2 PM eastern makes this the second latest time of day for that to occur. The only year they were put up for sale later in the day than this was in 2013, where SDCC items were available just before 4 PM.
I almost missed them, but thankfully two other people in the 2 PM meeting at work were also waiting on the Revolution set so we had a few moments of pause to order things.

My general rule these days is to never buy anything with the intent to sell them. I only buy things that I have an interest in, so "plastic crack" pretty much sums it up!

Your office sounds much more fun than mine. I was actually in the middle of a meeting and bought my Primitive as discreetly as possible. Purposely sat in the back of the room lol.

Just checked my shipping status this morning. Expected date has been changed from Thursday to Friday.
Though, what's more odd is that HTS still hasn't charged me for the purchase.

I was just about to reply as well. Mine got changed from today to tomorrow. Really wished it was today. I have softball after work tomorrow, and probably a lot of drinks after that lol. Won't be in any condition to play with Primitive for sure until Friday.

I think my last 2 orders from BBTS took almost a week each to process. But it's tough to beat that $4 shipping rate.

I think the $4 flat rate shipping orders get sent out last. It's like a BBTS Customer Caste system.
Back on topic, my HTS order of exclusives shipped yesterday as well, hooray!
