Sucks to hear man. Yeah, some of the GS/EB stores are run by not so great people. If that store has employees as bad as you say eventually it will close down cause of it due to lack of business. One of the GS's in my area had really crappy employees and after a bad incident with some of the employees last year, I vowed not to go there anymore. Well a few months ago I decided go by there and it was permenantly closed. Can't say I felt bad either to be honest.

Did they not even call you to pick them up?

My GameStop hasn't been getting enough stock to fulfil pre-orders lately, although I have gotten most of mine. Ordering with delivery to home may be more reliable.

Re: Star Wars Black Series discussion

Got gaming greats Sev today. And it's really not good. His upper torso armour is really high up and gives him a stubby neck look.

Also on mine the hip spread divots are really tight and he's either doing splits or standing too straight up. Ankles are too tight and weird too, I can't get him to stand at all.

I was very disappointed with how awful Sev looked. I ended up returning him. If Hasbro wants to charge that much money for repaints, they could at least do a good job on the paint and plastics so they don't look like a dollar store KO.

I think you're asking for too much from Hasbro at this point in time. They're just going to keep charging premium prices for mediocre quality figures.

Re: Star Wars Black Series discussion

Gamestop just sent a shipping notice for the new Darth Vader helmet. Caught me out of the blue. This was expected to ship in December or the new year. I was actually gonna cancel my order. I guess we can't put much faith in shipping ETA'S these days.

Re: Star Wars Black Series discussion

I think Hasbro has been giving shipping estimates way later than they actually expect them to ship just in case there are delays. Amazon has the new Black Series Vader releasing in January, but I picked it up from the local comic store yesterday and I expect Amazon will get their stock very soon.

Re: Star Wars Black Series discussion

I received the GG FO 13th Clone from GS today.

Found 1-JAC @ a local WM and the online order I placed is now in some bizarre state, so is no longer cancellable.
