Re: Star Wars Black Series discussion

Unfortunately the list of people waiting for echo to come back online has increased as there have been multiple reports on Facebook that TRU has cancelled their pre-orders.

I am confident that echo will come back online as we still have over a month to go before they actually ship.

Re: Star Wars Black Series discussion

I know echo came back online three times that day total, but every time it was shorter and shorter, I got him on the second time he popped back up before 11 am.

I was also lucky enough to get the two Walmart exclusives through the US shock trooper and admiral rampart.

Toysrus.ca now says Obi Wan is sold out. Anakin and Hawk are still available.

Re: Star Wars Black Series discussion

We seem to have gotten a one-up on the US this time for the TrU TCW figs; apparently they're not even going to get a chance to pre-order them.

Any how, I'm about to wear out my keyboard checking Walmart's site all the time for the Shocktrooper, lol.

The question is whether or not TRU is able to fulfill all these pre-orders.

There have been multiple pre-orders already cancelled by TRU. Some of those cancelled pre-orders were for Echo.

Yes, I've heard. Keeping my fingers crossed! This situation really is ridiculous and beyond out of hand. Michael from Retroblasting just posted a pretty accurate take-down of it all too.

I know, I've been checking a lot too! I really want to preorder the two Walmart exclusives. Don't want to have to use stocktrack and run all over Montreal and Laval to find them like with Ahsoka and the Mandalorian troopers.

Mine has not been cancelled, at least not yet and I hope not.

I tried that in the GTA. Ended up empty handed after weeks of attempts.

When were you able to get those? I remember when reports of them showing up across Canada emerged, we were in the 'Essential Goods only' part of the lockdown here in La Belle Province.
