Just read a Facebook post that someone was charged for the Amazon AlphaFlight set... Woooo!

[ariellagunas]

Well, I guess that means it's coming soon.

Meantime in the UK we're stuffed.
Very little allocation of Dani, and expensive.
Still waiting for Havok and Jean Grey sets, which probably arrive at the same time, becoming a huge expense.
And we cannot ordered Alpha Flight set anywhere for a decent price.
Thank god for my friends in America, but what about the rest of us across the pont?

Ditto, well minus the american part , but not fussed about alpha flight

[ariellagunas]

Well, I've been waiting got them and New Mutants forever, so they are my most wanted.
I'm even going to try to customize Marrina.
If I ever get to to complete the Avengers from the Korvac Saga I'll be a very happy camper.
I still need the original GOTG minus Vance, Jocasta, new Captain Marvel, Moondragon, and if we ever get Korvac and Carina in their Beverlly hills glory (I.e. Daisy dukes) I will do several cartwheels and a head stand.

Yes to all of these. Under Hasbro logic, if you customize, they’ll announce an official one at Toy Fair. Or if you cave and buy an old figure, they’ll announce a redo. Marrina would be great, because then they could reuse pieces of her for Namorita.

[ariellagunas]

Haha! Sure. I will put the brush down and she'll be announced. I'm using the Pepper body with vintage wasp head with some add one. Gonna try a mix of classic and modern.
With Canada expo a yearly thing, I'm hoping Marrina, Talisman, both Boxes ne of course the Master of The World will be forthcoming.
And I hope since we have now bare female feet, Namora, Namorita, a new Shanna, etc will turn up.

My set has been shipped and should be arriving tomorrow...so hopefully not too far down the line for the rest of you.

I'm appreciative to get these before the December release date, but I really wish we could get solid, accurate release dates from Hasbro (for all of their lines for that matter) that are consistent going forward. I had the money set aside for this set at the moment thankfully, but it really can wreak havoc, especially when something is projected for a December release, only to drop a month early.

[Captain Nash]

Oh man, the AF set is already shipping? I'm going to be hovering over my email until I get the confirmation it's sent. Hot Damn!

[JCarterVA]

Just got the email from Amazon that AF will be shipping soon.

[Veronica Mars]

Ugh. I cannot afford another early preorder

Glad I passed on preordering it as I don't have the funds for it right now. I'll just get it sometime in Dec.

[Bo Ttef]

Seriously had zero interest in buying another Hulk... but then how would i recreate the greatest What If... comic ever. What if... The Hulk Killed Wolverine?! (Vol.2 #50 for anyone interested)

Alpha Flight just shipped and should get here Friday! Excited to (mostly) complete this team!

[En Sabah Nerd]

For those that didn't pre-order the Alpha Flight set and aren't going to wait for a sale it appears to be up for back-order with a listed in-stock date of November 18.

[ariellagunas]

Thanks En Sabah, hopefully will be in the UK Amazon also.

I expect it'll be like the Sentinel pack last year where it will constantly go in and out of stock for a while.

Despite the pre-order I put down in August, the Alpha Flight set has not yet shipped for me, nor have I been charged. Yet, a local friend of mine has his arriving tomorrow. I know I put my pre-order down before him, so I find this very weird. The one thing that bugs me is that between the time that I ordered it and now, my credit card company sent me a new card. I updated my default payment on Amazon. Could the pre-order still be looking for the old card or something? I called customer service and the guy on the line said "he doesn't think that would be the case". Real assuring...

I ordered the moment it came on-line... mine is still listed as "pre-ordered" with a Dec 4 delivery date... So I don't think it has anything to do with your card- just "random processing magic" >insert Elmo shrug here<

Welcome the wonderful world of Amazon.

[fr0stie1980]

So happy to see AOA Figured getting a wave! Speculation on the BAF? Why not Iceman? Dude is huge within AOA so a BAF figure would work well! However I can see it being Apocalypse or Holocaust or something on that line, I can live with that.

I would also love to see an affordable Sentinel figure that is not an exclusive or limited run. I am Pleased so far, you are living up to my wish list! Except for a 2099 series which Ghostrider 2099 you are seriously living up to my expectations. Too bad the black series of Star Wars is always filled with pegwarmers or figures no one wants. HINT HINT, Republic Commandos.

People are going "Tickle me Elmo" over the Mandalorian figure. Haven't watched the show yet, but the toy just looks like "Gray Bobafet" to me. No one seems to want the Jawa however. The rest of the line seems to be picked clean at all my local haunts.

Me, I want ridiculously overpriced Haslab giant Sentinels. At LEAST 27-36" tall. Would look amazing as long as it has the same articulation as a regular legends figure. I'd even settle for the cheap hollow plastic used in Mattel's Brachiosaurus if they at least give the joints strong ratchets and decent articulation.

Lucky, I have to cancel mine

[En Sabah Nerd]

I was also having issues with my Alpha Flight pre-order. I checked earlier today and the item page says it's in stock (like if I ordered another set it would arrive on Sunday) but my pre-order still said it wouldn't arrive until December 4. I went into a chat with CS and wasted time there before figuring "screw it, I'll just cancel the pre-order then order one that's in stock." Naturally when I went to cancel the pre-order I couldn't because it now said the item is arriving tomorrow.

Well I guess I will rearrange the 80's shelf to get ready for them just in case they show up!

Does anyone else who preordered the Stan Lee coming out next year at Target keep getting a temporary authorization hold or whatever for the price of the item put on and taken off their card? Every week or so I keep getting a charge from Target for $33.29, and then a couple days later it disappears. I've never had a temporary hold on my card recur like this, and I don't want this to keep happening between now and when the figure comes out in May or June.
