Client cancelled - found in store
Omega cancelled - went back up online
Echo cancelled - not available online, could re order in store
I'm still waiting on these Gamestop in store pre-orders even though the release date has passed:

SW BL MIAMI FIGURE (Echo)
SW BL OMEGA FIGURE
SW BL DEATH WATCH MANDALORIAN

I did get called and picked up SW BL THE CLIENT FIGURE.

Anyone else still waiting on these others?

So I just checked my pre-orders and shipping notifications, and The Client, Omega, Echo, and the rest of the wave were always $35.99 at GameStop before Edge discounts. There may be some availability issues, but they're not cancelling orders just to hike up the prices.

Side note, I received my Ahsoka (Rosario Dawson) order today. Very nice figure.

Is GameStop getting stuff early or is Amazon just incompetent? Cause Amazon has the release date for January 2023...

GameStop originally had these as January as well (Omega at least, not sure on the others). I think it was Hasbro setting far off dates because they kept missing their initial release dates for so long due to COVID or shipping containers or zombies vs robots or whatever ridiculousness was causing delays.

Unfortunately it is happening, both amazon and GS have raised there prices to just cancel and up charge the new price. They use vendor as an the issue of quantity of selection. however speaking with the GameStop customer service and a DM. They have said the increases have happened and that they will honour the original price of preorder including 3 3/4 figs. I showed them the original orders cause I always screen shot of the prices and the DM is aware of the situation.

Amazon, well they don’t care, as per example my cpt. Rex 3 3/4 was originally 17.99 to be cancelled then 48 hrs later to be at the 19.49. Price point before the 21.99 raise to now be close to 24.99 price point.

I can say that all my day 1 pre orders for the echo wave at Game stop were for 35.99. I cancelled all my pre orders though as was able to get same items months earlier for cheaper shipped from a toy shop in England.

My store just got all 3 of those figures in for me yesterday, as well as Ahsoka, so should be any time now for you.
