Black Zarak is now gone from Zing website.... hope you all got your orders in
That was fast!
Just 8 days.
And I thought I ordered it, but I must I must have forgotten to do it. :(
How much did they have it for?
$299. I got my order in with a $50 deposit.Quote:

The really annoying thing is that they still have up the other two GEN Selects toys that will come out five months before Black Zarak. :(
Zavvi still have a preorder - $273.99 plus $7.99 postage.

There's a few online sources. I just would have preferred to grab one with Zing for the flexibility of paying it off over so long, and local pick up over shipping it.
The reply I got back from EB Games was that they had a limited allocation this time (which is very odd) and they pre-sold out. Usually they have a cut-off date and just give the numbers to Hasbro... an allocation only happens if something is coming out soon and EB doesn't list it until the stock arrives into the country.
Kinda sad that. So I've gone and preordered with Saviers Toys.
I ended up going through Robotoyz.. Joel over there has been fantastic to me and the shipping ended up being far cheaper than I expected. Overall, pretty happy I didn't go with EB.
I was hoping that Black Zarak would be sold through Amazon as well (Hasbro Australia said that from this year we would see EB Games exclusives be sold through Amazon as well, but they didn't specifically say it would be for all EB Games items)... and someone has found an odd listing on Amazon Australia that is using the Black Zarak images, but is listed as a Power Rangers place-holder listing, for just au$45. (it is not showing as in-stock, but can be carted for purchase)
This would not be the listing for Black Zarak, but suggests that Amazon Australia has the images on-hand, ready for the listing to go up... which I hope is soon, as I missed out on the EB Games listing.
I have added this item to my watch list, just to see what happens with it.
After being taken down for a while, the black zarak listing on Amazon is back.
https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B08ZD2D...hk_typ_imgToDp
The price is still wrong (will probably be fixed later) but all the details are now correct... so could be the real listing this time.
Listing is still there with that pricing. So I have gone ahead and ordered one haha
It shouod be like the Jurassic Park set, with the preorders remaining but the price being adjusted later when they realise it is wrong. It is a good backup to EB Games selling out so fast, so fingers crossed this one works.
From talking to staff, it didn't actually sell out fast, but was just offered for a limited time. I slept on it quite a while and then the day it was taken down I was like oops. Went in to the store and they said yeah it's time was up, but could still take orders in store until C.O.B no problem, then they'd have the numbers for the supplier.Quote:

Be very interesting to see what happens with it.
My Amazon order got cancelled
Everyone’s did. But this is the zing threadQuote:

I doubt we will see it before Christmas
I saw that. At least it frees up a bit of disposable income from my budget this week for some other things I'm wanting to do.
Looks like zavvi have upped their price to au$282 (maybe due to the different exchange rate since then, as it is coming from the UK).Quote:

I still think it will show up on Amazon Australia when they get the stock in-hand (so that they don't over-sell it if they don't know how many they are getting), but I might just have to lock in another option just in case.
I was about to ask, that clears that up thenQuote:

I was expecting this initially to be a fairly limited release, because it was classified as Select, but they upgraded it to be part of the Legacy Line? just speculating it shouldn't be hard to get.
It’s ‘legacy selects’ like how selects has been ‘war for cybertron selects’ or something along those linesQuote:

I just got a call from my EB saying the same thing. Part of the rationale was that it is in "high demand".
How much did you guys have paid off? Mine is half done so far….
Does that mean that they have them (in the country)?Quote:

I spoke to a staff member at EB when I went in to finalise it. She said it's to do with people preordering limited edition items and never collecting them.
Odd, I've not received any communication explaining that was the case.Quote:

Perhaps your store is using that as a reason for people to pay up on time & not leave it hanging ? I dunno...
