  1. I would THINK that Amazon would receive their shipment when the other retailers did. UNLESS they get everything they order in their own shipping container, in which case it could be a little later, if they're waiting to fill it. Honestly not sure. Sorry for the delay, guys.
  2. New info: Second two-pack will be revealed early April as part of Fan Expo. Deluxe set will be revealed early April and offered late April.
  3. I got my set from the warehouse and promptly misplaced it, so I have yet to take them out and shoot them, but I am irrationally excited about the translucency!
  4. Series 1 should arrive any day now. Series 2 will be offered this summer. First two-pack (Young Bucks) will arrive this summer. Second two-pack will be revealed end of month. Deluxe set will be revealed end of month and offered end of next month. Lots of cool stuff coming.
  5. This set may well encourage multiple purchases, there are multiple looks for most of the figures in it. DD, Elektra, and Echo all have alternate looks at this time (DD technically has two), and Bullseye is one of a team of three identical Bullseyes in the comics. I'll let everybody know what's in the set as soon as we're ready to offer it, I don't want to speak out of turn. We should offer it in May, I believe.
  6. Great shots, Funkguerilla. I've been posting some too, but they're not as good as yours! If anyone knows MInimated, let him or her know I'd be happy to donate prizes. I appear to be... disconnected from him. If not, I'll just give some stuff away here, because why not!
  7. No plans, sorry: But seriously, I don't think the Marvel line will go anywhere, but other lines that do not perform as well are certainly problematic. We're trying to keep everything alive.
  8. MSRP was still $10 each. And cost increases are still real. Sorry, guys. Believe it or not, we looked at other ways to bring prices down, and that included removing some paint apps and tampo printing. Not ideal.
  9. Someone was selling Wave 81 new for $7 a pack? That's a bargain! I think the MSRP on 81 was still $10 per two-pack, and costs have gone up, so that if we offered them, they would be $12-15 per pack (I believe the upcoming AEW 2-pack is $12). That means six figures would be $36-45. Similarly, four-packs have traditionally been $30 (I think even that is going up), so by that math a six-pack should be $45. Plus, we try to include a micro-Mate with every set (HERBIE, Lucky). So while cost increases in China (and everywhere) are real, we were really trying to manage pricing while increasing retailer (and casual customer) appeal. THAT SAID, we know $50 is a lot to dish out, so we are looking at reducing prices in the future, even if it means adjusting the number of figures in a set to make it more manageable. I'll keep everyone posted. Thank you everyone who has stuck with us.
  10. I won't have mine for a week or so, nor will most of my press people, so Luke customers may get them first! Let's get some reviews and pics out there!
  11. Yes, they are $35 and the item # is MAR232342
  12. I may have misspoke. Series 3 of MM includes one character from Hasbro Series 1, one from Series 2, and two from Series 4. Popularity on the cartoon was a strong factor in character selection, I believe. Unfortunately, we did not get to do the 1982-2022 40th anniversary set, which would have included some earlier Hasbro characters (it became Ninja Force), but those earlier characters have not been ruled out.
  13. I believe we just solicited them a couple of weeks ago, so it will be a few weeks at LEAST before we have final numbers. The price did go up a little, so hopefully we have more orders and not less. As far as I know, Series 2 is still on the way. I do not currently have a release date, but I do not always get them before they reach the warehouse. If it sells through well, another set is not out of the question, but I do not know where we are in development of such a hypothetical set.
  14. I'm not sure if we are tweaking the line-up at all as we look at other release options. It may end up being an exclusive, which may affect how they are packaged and whether it is all Joe/all Cobra. But if you look at Series 2 of the original toy line, I think you'll see some standouts.
  15. Woo-hoo! I kinda got it! Can't wait to see it! Great mod, elhonez!
  16. I think the second box set sales probably determined that. Not sure how it did, I need to go back and check. Not at this time.
  17. NO plans for more building sets, especially for Power Rangers. Trying to get good order numbers for the VInimates. NO plans for Jennifer Coolidge outside our Gentleman Broncos box set.
  18. He's a VERY popular wrestler who got in a real fight with some of the other AEW talent backstage. The other talent have returned, but Punk was injured at the time, so I am hoping they're just waiting for him to be 100%.
  19. Nope, they should be here soon. He's our first Gallery Diorama, as well (due in May), so I'm hoping Chuck knows something I don't.
  20. Marvel Series 83 is in our warehouse. It should hit stores in the next two weeks.
