Ive had Voyager Prime preordered since July, and it's said that it would arrive in July..then it switched to August. Now August is half over, and still nothing. I figured maybe actual retail stores (i.e. Wal-Mart, Target, etc) would get them first and then BBTS, and numerous WMs and Targets here in Vegas have said that they were gettin the new wave of movie figures in within a couple days, and that was a week or so ago. I'm sick of checkin out these stores!!! lol. It's pretty frusterating, anyone have any insight on what the hold up is? When clearly other places outside of Vegas are getting these figures.

Lack of stock by hasbro. Which means hasbro didn't plan well they don't have enuff stock to fill orders for brick and morder stores let alone the on-line stores so you may be waiting awhile. My recomdation is to see if your local target still has an robo-vision prime because he is basicly the voyager class prime.

yeah, the targets here are actually more pitiful than the walmarts. ive given up completely on Target after the only leader class prime i have ever seen with my own 2 eyes was runnin off with some little kid and his grandmother. lol.

I've ordered from BBTS. Of course the prices will be more expensive than RRP but the ones I wanted were more reasonably priced than EE.
I have found them reliable thus far. It's just a pre-order thing, sometimes they too don't come in and they have to wait. So my C9 Hasbro version BB08 has been shifted from July to August to September.
I order for peace of mind that I will eventually get a figure, so I don't really worry too much if pre-orders are pushed back. I think BBTS has the same problems as anybody else: waiting for Hasbro. And waiting. And waiting... And...
