BBTS availability.

I get the impression BBTS is hving delays with their shipping and receiving, does anyone else know anything? They seem to be getting their stock later and later than everyone else.
They're 2 waves behind on Hasbro TF figures and I've already seen people talking about receiving various 3rd party figures while BBTS still has them on preorder. In some cases they aren't sheduled to arrive for a couple of months.

Is this their normal situation and I just haven't noticed until now?

Sometimes they miss out on a wave or get less than they ordered, and it puts them out of schedule waiting for it.
And if demand drops off for a certain series, then they might stop getting more in until they sell enough of the old stock.

Ok thanks. I might have to start shopping more widely.

My Voyager Whirl and Wave 2? Deluxes are in my POL as of today. if thats what your waiting on they should be in your POL soon.

The wave of Deluxes before those have been held up, due to limited stock from Hasbro.... and now that Hasbro America have released the Scoop wave, I kinda doubt BBTS would get the Waspy wave now.
If there is a revision wave later with older figures re-released, we'd get lucky... but even revision waves rarely have redecos re-released (Goldfire & Dreadwing could be even harder to find now).
Perhaps keep an eye out for other sources stocking that wave, or still have it in stock... since it has been a couple months since they were released now.

BTW, anyone know if it's just BBTS waiting on the Kids Logic Prime or are other stores waiting also? It's the last thing I want in my POL before I ship it.

*head-desk* So what you're saying is my pre-orders are unlikely to arrive and I should probably have my kidneys removed and sold now, if I ever want to see a Waspinator or Skids.

Yeah, mine came in today too. And I was getting so much credit from my wife for not having bought any toys this month

if found their shipping has been slow lately. ie; processing to warehouse then warehouse to shipped has been slow.
