I'm guessing if they don't find a second factory, a second production of S1 would probably come before S3. Even then, I can't see releasing figures in late December, when everyone is broke. I think it's the complete opposite. Releasing figures in December when everyone IS BUYING things like TOYS, makes all the sense in the world to me. Especially when RSC will be having all of those discounts. Sure, the AEW figs probably wont be discounted but the traffic the site gets from their sales will absolutely cause the AEW figs to fly off the shelves as well. Remember people aren't just automatically broke during the holidays. They are broke because they are indeed buying toys and other such items. So in reality its right up their alley. I could see S3 hitting mid-December with retail not too far behind. I mean, that's what I'd do. Gotta feed those Christmas shoppers!

No doubt they're going to push to make sure they product available during holiday buying. It's not just a big sales opportunity, but a huge opportunity to grow the brand. Little Timmy may have never heard of AEW until grandma bought him a figure for Christmas. If even a tiny percentage of incidental holiday check out Dynamite or become recurring buyers, it's a huge win.

I don’t get the thought process of toys not being in demand in December...

We’re not being told the whole truth about the chase figures. Threads are being locked.

We’re not being told the whole truth about the chase figures. Threads are being locked. It is a bit odd........I mean i thought I raised a legitimate point. So many other posts that are far more controversial or inappropriate that are left open forever. Im just wondering where they are at. I have money and willing to spend it lol

Any likelihood that Series 2 has another run as a backorder.

We’re not being told the whole truth about the chase figures. Threads are being locked. There's no conspiracy my friend. Yours got locked because people started getting toxic, and the second got locked because with no new developments, it's pointless and wouldn't add anything positive and could only really end negatively. It's already been explained near infinite times what's going on with the chase figures, and they have nothing to do with this thread really, beyond that we don't know the attires yet. (Which, admittedly, I'm very eager to see!)

I don’t get the thought process of toys not being in demand in December... Nobody said they wouldn't be in demand. I don't know how that became the narrative. I'm basing S3 likely not arriving before Christmas, and arriving by early-February to most stores, purely on the time between sets for RSC, the additional production of S1, a second factory not being confirmed, as well as my experience in retail, both as a manager, and a receiver. We always dug through toy overstock in the back the few days before Christmas, and especially after, and into late January. This period of the year also allows numbers to be padded for the fiscal year, as those receiving gift cards for unwanted gifts bought what was on the shelves. There was almost always a reset of the toy department in January, as well. Hopefully, I'm wrong.

I haven’t gotten any AEW figures yet. Don’t know if I will, but maybe I should. They’re selling like hot cakes it seems.

We’re not being told the whole truth about the chase figures. Threads are being locked. They're not selling them yet and haven't said when they will. Nothing controversial. No conspiracy theory. My guess is that they're waiting for the next shipment of back-orders to come in that way they're not putting up a few at a time. Once they're released, people will complain about the cost and/or them selling out quickly. Regardless, don't know what this has to do with Series 2 selling out...

I think they said series 3 would be at ringside for December, which would be in the original plan a new wave every 6 weeks. After 3 figures were shown and the tease of Shida. He went silent on AEW reveals. Come the January resets Target might have the line, and Amazon as well.

I’m honestly hoping we get a backorder of series 2. I’m afraid they are sold out for good...
