Do you know anywhere besides Cmdstore that has in stock?

I want to get Sabine and Ezra.

They will be announced officially next week, and they will be available everywhere. Just be patient.

Sabine was officially available for pre-order last week everywhere.

According to Yak Face, shipping data shows they already arrived in the US. They will be on shelves soon.

Did cmdstore sell out already?

More likely they pulled the listings because they're not supposed to be out yet, as they are still unannounced. I bet they got an angry call from Hasbro.

Would that mean like a lawsuit or cmdstore could be shut down?

I doubt it would have gotten anywhere close to that, but if a retailer wants to maintain a good relationship with the manufacturer/distributor, it's best not to piss them off too often.

It might have just been a mistake on CMD's part, and maybe they really didn't know those were unannounced figures (though that would be very surprising), but either way, Hasbro hates leaks since it screws with their marketing plans.

And I'm sure Disney/Lucasfilm doesn't like it either. And Hasbro certainly has contractual obligations with Disney about when they can announce and/or release various figures. Hence the annoyingly slow drip of figure releases for one wave.

Not worth making a thread for but if anyone is interested in taking my Clone Wars Ahsoka off my hands PM me. It's been opened but figure is like new. Also have AotC Padme, also opened but like new if anyone is interested.
