Nothing has changed for HHH. This Thursday is 2/3 which is the day it’s been scheduled to be delivered for multiple people. It just says “Thursday” now because of how close it is and how Amazon lists it.

HHH was supposed to release after Warrior yet Warrior’s pictures haven’t even been updated.. What a weird set of releases all these fan takeovers have been.

Triple H still being available for pre order makes me think they definitely have a ton of them so I expect them to ship on time.

I ordered on the 30th, ordered hogan before that and I've had no updates. I supported the new gen set x2 the retros x2 and to be perfectly honest I am sick and freaking tired of this crappy customer service. If I don't get what I preordered in the next couple of weeks then I'm selling my ultimates. Everyone is to busy sucking up to afa and trying to climb Inside him to notice Hey Steve, we love you and although we don't visit our grandma at the holidays we hope you had a great holiday. We want you to mark us with your scent Steve. Honestly, people need to get some self respect So we’re doing this again, eh? |

Another thing that's ruining the set is the amount of exclusives. Slaughter, hogan, Batista, Jeff, warrior, triple h, the rock. Its not helping. In UK the exclusives are impossible to get at a good price. Slaughter - was an SDCC exclusive and hard to get for EVERYONE. Batista - hasn't been released yet, so we're not sure Jeff - you can still get for under £30 on Amazon UK. Hogan/Warrior/Triple H - are (or were) available to pre-order from Amazon (US). You'll get them when they get them... first come, first served. The Rock - again, he was available to pre-order on Amazon (US) for months. |

Do you just come in with smarmy one liners to up your status on here or something? I hate to tell you buddy but it kinda makes you look a bit twatty |

Always find it funny when people say stuff like "lol you're complaining about toys".
We're all on a toy forum. Nobody has any moral highground over this stuff. Stop bickering.

It’s more so the complaining over things that are out of people’s hands. Steve has expressed multiple times that once the figures are out of their warehouse, it’s in the hands of the company selling them. In this case, it’s Amazon. Not sure if you’re aware of this, but TONS of items are being delayed in the world right now. This isn’t new and unheard of. To come onto a forum and literally throw a verbal hissy fit is extremely childish. We just point out the silliness in it. Steve doesn’t have the answers. The figures are slowly shipping out. People are getting them. Unfortunately it’s a situation that nobody has a clear cut answer to explain why. It’s okay though. We’ll either get the figures at some point, or we’ll *gulp* be given our money back. It happens. |

I just think it's funny when people go after Steve in situations like this. He's the Manager of Global Marketing. We're lucky we get interactions from him and some of the info we get, but I'm not sure why people think he has/should have all of the info and answers in situations like this, especially when another massive retailer is involved. I work for a very large company, and granted I'm not a global manager, there is so much that goes on that I know absolutely nothing about and couldn't answer questions on.
All that being said, I'm super annoyed and frustrated with the Fan Takeover UEs just as much as everyone else, but let's not peg this on someone who isn't causing the problems.

The words above are...a vast collection of proverbial garbage. Let me educate you on the FACTS 1. Hulk Hogan pre orders are already hilariously late and still showing as august for alot people, even though they have been shipping to others for weeks 2. The warrior was supposed to be out by now, again nobody knows what's happening there, and judging by hogan even pre orders aren't certain. 3.i didn't say there were no pre orders available ever - I said exclusives are ruining the line. And they are. There are now 12 series, that's 24 standard release figures and for some monkeyass reason they chose to repeat many of them. 2 hogan's (3rd coming) 2 fiends, 2 cenas, 2 rocks, 2 hhh - the exclusives are simply difficult to get hold of, and when a company like Mattel choose to make certain figures difficult to obtain they wipe out half of the collectors who wanted to collect them all. The famous "collect em all" isn't an option and the exclusives numbers are catching up with the main line - I've never seen any other available sets with so many exclusives. Exclusive to Walmart - yeah....that's great for the rest of the world. Scalper heaven more like. The simple fact is this - Mattel need to start using their heads or ultimates will just be the next legends...or defining moments...or flashback series...or retros. They will be a thing of the past if they don't better their distribution |

The simple fact is this - Mattel need to start using their heads or ultimates will just be the next legends...or defining moments...or flashback series...or retros. They will be a thing of the past if they don't better their distribution 1. Some people have received their Hogan, some have not. AFA said there's a second batch/production run though, so everyone who ordered one will get it in time. I've ordered 2 and they're showing in August too... so I guess my order will be from the second production run. No big deal... I'll just wait longer. I'm hoping they'll arrive sooner than August - but if not, c'est la vie. 2. Warrior is meant to be out now - so obviously there's a delay. We're (hopefully) just coming out of a worldwide pandemic though, which has affected and delayed a lot of things. There's really no need to panic - we'll get our Warrior figure when he's available, just have a bit of patience. 3. Exclusives aren't "ruining" the line at all, lol. They may be ruining it for you - but so far, only the limited Sgt Slaughter has been hard to get from the UE line (...I've had no problem at all getting all the ones I wanted - including the first Rock from Amazon). As for repeating the same characters... they're all A-listers/big names/proven sellers (even The Fiend was red-hot for a while - no doubt that's why they chose to do a second one). If you don't like the multiples of a certain wrestler, just don't buy it. Anyway, sorry if you think what I'm saying is nonsense... I'm just trying to put across another view of things in a calmer, more reasoned manner. Throwing a hissy-fit or saying we should go after Steve/AFA isn't going to help anyone. |

Sorry stevehulk , but when did I say we should go after Steve? You literally just fabricated that from nothing, I'm going to try for a third time....sigh...to say this.
If ultimates are to succeed they must be on time, and they must be readily available. There are now 24 standard line figures. But the exclusives which are not readily available are starting to catch up with standard line numbers
Slaughter
Hhh
Hogan
Batista
Jeff (yes Steve we know he's available but he's an EXCLUSIVE.
THE ROCK
look how many elites were out before they released an exclusive? An exclusive is supposed to be a special figure,but with the ultimate line they are whoring themselves to provide exclusives to suppliers without thinking about the impact that will have on the collector. And ultimately (no he dit'nt) the line itself.
Exclusives exclude. They exclude people In other countries, people who miss out. I mean they just released series 1 of the new retro line and it sold out in 5 hours. So now all the people who misses out on series 1 and can't afford scalper prices will probably give up on the line and it will fail again. Because it was a 5 hour exclusive? We are talking about series 1 here.
For you to jump on everything I say without reading makes you look like you didn't really read it at all, but know this, anytime you jump on my points without thinking I will point it out. Your trying to defend Steve so he sees you fighting for his honour and that's lovely it really is. But I'm fighting for the collectors who want to buy this stuff before people like you buy 10 of them and sell them on ebay.

Oh and yellow/red hulk hogan and warrior 6 as exclusives is downright stupid. Especially in a line people are going nuts for. But hey, for all the collectors who will miss out on hogan and warrior - at least they can get multiple fiends wooo

We’ll either get the figures at some point, or we’ll *gulp* be given our money back. It happens. Sounds like your having a hissy fit about people making complaints on items they committed to deliver. We are coming on a figure forum expressing how we feel about ultimate edition releases, you on the other hand take every opportunity to complain about people's complaints, which isn't really figure related so....its people like you who are starting the fighting mate. If you don't have anything figure related to say then don't speak. Your opinions on people opinions is not relevant. At all. People's complaints about figure delays are. So... |
