Did they completely oversell, or is this a case of they can't fill the preorders with the initial Shipment, like they did with Nemesis Prime?

As for the issues with OpOp, I had the shoulder issue on mine. So far, no issues with the plastic (so far... ). I can't get the pegs on the big gorilla feet to attach to the back of the small robot's vehicle mode for the jet. I must be doing something wrong.

I guess that's the only issue I don't have
Idk...do you use the ankle pivots?

Don’t know if it’s been posted yet, but HTS has Cutthroat and Blot listed now. They aren’t in stock yet, but at least they’re listed, which is new.

I think if Amazon oversold figures it isn't entirely their fault. I don't think they expected a lot of people to buy two copies of one figure, but they still should have had more stock.

Regardless of that, they still should have cut pre-orders when they did run out of stock. No matter how you slice it, it's still Amazon's fault. They know how much they're getting, and they can see how many someone is buying

you guys do realize they do this all the time, with everything? they did this exact thing (if I'm remembering correctly) for potp wave 1 back in january, shouldn't even be a surprise at this point

Only up side is, they're the only one who can sell this figure, so hasbro only has to supply one company right now

Still no news on my counterpunch I am waiting for shipment notice preorder the day he went live at 7 06 am

That doesnt make much sense? I did thr same and had Repugnus months ago. and my punch is due Monday

I'm not a prime member, so when I bought them it was just the "$25 and up is free" shipping. Due to that it would only let me select "group my items in as few shipments as possible." So I've had to wait an extra month for Repugnus, and if they don't ship either of them I'll be about as annoyed as humanly possible. I mean, come on, I ordered these TWO MONTHS in advance, you'd think they'd be intelligent enough to know when they've run out of stock and should stop selling.

So, wait... I preordered my Punch/Counterpunch figure about two weeks ago. It is still saying that it'll be here by Wednesday, meaning it'll be shipped tomorrow. I'd they ate outta stock now... is my figure going to be shipped or not? Note: Amazon hasn't withdrawn the money, so...

It might be shipped, it might not. Amazon just calculates when something should be there, if stock allows. They don't factor in changes in stock I don't think

President-prime wrote:ok, I’m sorry, but that review of Punch/Counter Punch was hella annoying. Recently, more and more toy reviews are trying to be cute. Come on guys, you’re reviewing a toy. I really don’t care what you look like or if you’re happy or not when getting the Amazon packets. If you’re gonna review the toy, show me the toy. Hold it in a way we can see the toy, put it down, take good videos of it. Snapshots, whatever. If the video have you more than the toy, you’re not reviewing the toy. You’re marketing yourself. Ok, sorry. Got it off my chest.

Btw. Still waiting for mine.

So I shouldn't due my reviews from here on out reclined on a bear skin rug?

I can barely hear what the guy is saying.

I have the same issue with chefatron.

I pre-ordered mine back in July. As of right now, still shows status as 'ordered' with an expected arrival date of Sep 21-24.

I have no prob with your review Chuckdawg. Actually fond of your voice so no complaint there. You actually put the toy being reviewed down and allow us to see the figure. You’re reviewing the figure. Some reviewers seem to not know what they’re reviewing. Just saying thanks.

I think they mean this guy:

D-Maximal_Primal wrote:Thanks to Seibertronian ScottimusPrime, we have a brand new review from the titled Seibertronian of the soon to be in everyone's hands Power of the Primes Punch/Counterpunch! The figure, which has begun to ship out to many Seibertronians and is set to arrive as early as tomorrow (Sunday 9/15) for some, is a brand new update to the old double spy, and includes Prima Prime and a Power of the Primes Prime Armor piece. The figure transforms between 2 robot modes, one for each named character, and a sweet looking blue car.

Check out the review below, and let us know when you get your Punch/Counterpunch, and what you think of this awesome surprise of a figure!

OK, I'm worried a bit here: my local Walmarts have put the Prime Master Assortment on clearance... which is all Wave 1 still. $4 a pop, a whopping $1 down in price. First the Leaders, now the Prime Masters, what's next? Maybe the Voyagers...

Target is the only place to have had Waves 2 and 3, but slim pickings right now.

I know, I was just trying to be funny. Who would really want to see me on a bear skin rug.

In honor of the late, great Burt Reynolds?

Most if not all are just fans like you and me. It takes time to get into their "mojo". There are instance though, they should by now gotten the sound right and stuff.

Some do the review just to be the "first". Sometimes it's good, most of the times it's bad.

A testament to Hasbro's distribution Genius. Got a talk with an Amazon.com rep and yup, P/CP is out of stock and they don't know when he's gonna be available!

I don't think it would be too much to ask for them to fulfill/supply the units they promised to deliver right?

They had like 3 months when they accepted via Amazon for orders of P/CP. They even used the Amazon exclusive as part of the selling point.

So once the orders were tallied up from Amazon, if they could not fulfill at least 90%, why not just delay the release?

Then we receive reports he is available at U/S Singapore? WTF?!

This last sentence is what sucks. There are stocks for him yet Hb did not see fit to get the Amazon requisition well stocked?

And here's the real kick in the teeth, it's coming misassembled. So now my review is going to be a repair video too.

That part has me leaning to cancel my order and get the JP version. Hopefully his assembled right this time.
