Has Target ever been accurate with a pre-order? This is Retro Fest and the Red Rooster all over again. And in both those situations, the figures were readily available for a long time once the figures went live. I don't see any reason to expect anything different here. |

These being available online completely helps me and I’m sure many others, that dont readily have 27 Target stores around them. I’m glad that they’re online and that everyone gets a chance to get what they want. I only wish they’d eventually implement some sort of order limit per account to prevent scalping. Online shopping can be a great thing, but there’s always a few turds floating in the punch bowl. Props to AFA for working to getting these online. Regardless of the virus, this should be an option for many reasons. I send this with only good vibes and the hope that everyone who wants any of these figures can get them. But I'm actually kind of in the opposite boat ... ever since the initial Legends line failed I've been a little worried/concerned about how these will do once they came back. Based on the amount of DOD figures that are all still available at Walmart's website, I'm not worried about these selling out -- I could see these following a similar path -- and I actually hope that second-hand people get on these (again, not at the expense of anyone who really wants them) just to drive the sales up and make this successful. Steve has said a bunch that these need to do well to keep going up online and my main concern isn't that we won't be able to get them, but that they won't sell enough. |

I mean that’s today, Sunday. And far as I know, it’s still Sunday, it never gave a time on Sunday and that’s probably a reason why, because of people like you. |

Anybody know what the retail price for Legends will be? So pumped for the Hammer! I don’t even care which one I receive.

And it’s not like we don’t all have our phones at our sides most of the time. I’m watching UNC/Maryland from ‘84 on ESPN, took some allergy meds and all my symptoms are going away (leading me to believe this is a sinus infection) and charging my phone so I’m happy as a clam. |

Not sure anybody collects as religiously as I do, but I’m not gonna let it run my life. I mean you’ll get the figures, rather you pre order them now or buy them when they hit stores. |

This isn’t like a SDCC exclusive. |

seriously their action figures having friends relationships and being with your family is so much more important. I can totally identify.... totally not worth all the time it's taking to get some of these things. And I think I'm at the point where I'll just pay the outrageous scalper prices for the figures I REALLY want..... And just not buy - not get - the figures I "kinda" want but can't seem to get easily. Cuz that's the way it's been for a while - and I don't see things getting ANY easier following COVID-19..... I feel like we're not going to see new figs in stores for like a year (or more). thats why i just preordered the fiend off ringside because I know finding him in stores when he does hit probably won’t be worth the aggravation. |
