battlecat Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 I guess it was a glitch and the SDCC listings went 'live' before they were supposed to? They've definitely yanked them now, but I don't think you guys will have to wait too long, the last AFX news email said the preorders were on the way (and they clearly have it ready to go, since it already kinda did)... few days maybe?

karamazov80 Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Was Dark Avengers 2 listed on there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buttheadsmate Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Champions,Thundebolts & T2 . I honestly wish I hadn't said F-all now ......but they have confirmed my order! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mav-man Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 (edited) They had the champions, thunderbolts, and T2 bundle with a ironman hostile takeover set and web armor spidey included for free. They also had the Dark Avengers 2, and the Ghostbusters Peter and Staypuft exclusive up for pre-order. Luckily, I got them all ordered before it disappeared off their site!

karamazov80 Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 (edited) Luckily, I got them all ordered before it disappeared off their site! If they were there before, they will be there again. This isn't a case like the MOTU figures on Mattycollector, where thousands of anxious, sweaty-palmed fans were constantly refreshing their computers hoping to get the T2: Attack on Cyberdyne Minimates as soon as they popped up, buying all stock in a matter of minutes and crashing AFX's servers. Glad to hear DA2 set was there, though. I will be pre-ordering Edited May 23, 2009 by karamazov80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drgnrbrn316 Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Not sure how I missed the DA2 and GB sets. I'll have to keep an eye out once those links start working again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd have probably made mention of it, but since they've pulled the links, maybe they'll be reworked to include the fanboys. I imagine it depends on how many they have sitting around after the show. With only 500 of each, its possible that there won't be any left. (I have no idea what sort of numbers the freebies have had in the past) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karamazov80 Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 2,000 of each of the keychains seems like a bit much to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the past they've always been 2000, making 500 doesn't seem very profitable!!!! Giveaways don't tend to be profitable Also bear in mind that 500*4=2000 so what seems like the magic short run number is still being met. T.
