AEW Launch Day Thread (most likely coming 8/6)

[The Fan of Wrestle]

First thing in the AM my pegs are empty. Grabbing white cheddar pop corn so this wasn’t a waste even though its 5 mins from my house. BTW Columbus OH

[roadmicester]

The 5th for Ohio

[JCF]

First stop empty pegs. Onto number 2

Bty if this becomes a huge issue today I would tweet at Jazwares,Tony Khan & Cody.No need to hype up August 3rd for the last few weeks as the official launch date if their not physically on the shelves.

[theaxehennig]

Thanks for posting updates, gentlemen. I will be heading out shortly, but have little faith in Walmart.

Yeah! Burn them at the stakes! Because it’s tony khan, Cody and Jeremy themselves that are out there stocking the shelves like ing Santa clause.

How incredibly childish are you? Please explain to me how Jazwares or anybody in AEW can control the fact that WALMART had a delay and their shipments are coming in a whole day or two later than planned? Your attempt to illicit a response from anybody you mentioned won’t do a single thing but show your immaturity and pettiness. How about you try to remember that these TOYS are being physically shipped across country on a truck, by actual human beings, to stores, who employees actual humans, during a GLOBAL pandemic! We are spoiled to even be able to have the opportunity to buy TOYS during such a time in this country.

So even though these are TOYS how about we try to actually act like ADULTS.

I didn't get the impression that the o.p. was looking to go on a witch hunt about the non-stock...moreso letting the people in charge of the companies involved know that their retailer didn't hold up their end of the deal. I'm sure they're all going to hear about it all day long today. Tough to put a date on something like this, in my opinion. I would have gone "Early August" in all of my advertising.

Or simply "Coming in August" would've been fine instead of a set day.

By the way, second store has nothing. Time to go home folks.

Maybe so. If I jumped the gun I do apologize but let’s be honest you know darn well the comments would’ve turned in that direction. I can’t imagine how tough it is from a marketing standpoint to sell anything during times like this. Saying early August might have been a better call to cover their bases but then again if they were promised by the retailer a certain release date, why not advertise it? It’s a tough call.

[brianwc]

Thank you all for your sacrifice so that I can go back to sleep. It's not quite opening time here yet, and I told myself last night I would check the boards before wasting a trip.

[MrOrange100]

If you are going to advertise a specific release date and retailer it's not unreasonable to expect them to be available on that day. 

[walkingturtles]

Dropping the kids off and hitting 3 Super WalMarts this morning. One did have the rings and the belt so hoping that one gets it done.

Exactly! For all know they may wind up on shelves later today! Or this evening. Because let’s also not forget that typically stores are 24 hours. Nowadays you may not have that night crew solely responsible for stocking non essentials.

Simmer down my entire point is dont promise a set release date of August 3rd if their not going to be physically on the shelves.As others said just say released sometime in August.

When they started promoting the 3rd the last few weeks we've already been in the COVID era for months now,so that's a weak excuse.

Again my point dont hype and promise a date if you can't deliver upon it.

Not unreasonable at all. I’m getting ready myself right now to go to Walmart in my area to hunt these down. But if I come up empty I’m also not going to be tweeting out hate comments or complaining to store management. It just is what it is.

[Mclovin]

My walmart had the belt. the figures are in the store but not out on the floor.
