Botbots cartoon for Netflix

[griffin]

Amazon America has them in stock too....which can ship to here through the Australian site, but some of the prices are eye-watering.
I was told twice that they won't be coming to Australia, but will probably show up here after I import them.

So you will get doubles to get the full set...

Now that people are getting these from Amazon America and Hasbro Pulse, we have some photos of the packs and the catalogue... which should show all of Series 6 (the catalogue has 60 figures on it but the packaging has 75+ on it).
Even though online stores have been listing the four size-classes as master carton bulk lots, it is not always reliable if an outlet has unpacked the master cartons, as some people have been posting about getting duplicate single packs or multi-packs, leaving them with an incomplete set and having to chase up spares on the secondary market because they don't want to buy a second complete master carton for just one or two Botbots.

On top of this risk (of online sources not sending out sealed Master Cartons as they are supposed to), there is also the risk of them sending out a single pack instead of the full Master Carton... as I and some others in America found out the hard way, with just one Single pack sent instead of a Master Carton of 24, making it a very expensive single $5 Botbot toy costing about $140.
(the last photo here is mine, which even shows a label on the single pack that says it should have been for 24 packs... but alas, now I have to send it back, wait for a refund (and hope they don't reject the refund because I didn't send back 24 figures), and then risk ordering another set of Single Packs)

On top of this risk (of online sources not sending out sealed Master Cartons as they are supposed to), there is also the risk of them sending out a single pack instead of the full Master Carton... as I and some others in America found out the hard way, with just one Single pack sent instead of a Master Carton of 24, making it a very expensive single $5 Botbot toy costing about $140.
(the last photo here is mine, which even shows a label on the single pack that says it should have been for 24 packs... but alas, now I have to send it back, wait for a refund (and hope they don't reject the refund because I didn't send back 24 figures), and then risk ordering another set of Single Packs)

How on earth does that happen? Is it just the result of Amazon treating employees like slaves, or is there some way to honestly make that mistake?

Anyway, catalogues are still a thing?!?! There's something I miss from the 80s... And the next time I see someone complaining that a Generations deluxe is a piece of crap, I've gotta direct them to Loose Deuce

Looking good.

My botbots are sitting in PoL with BBTS. I assume they won't have this issue, they are normally pretty good.

It happened again... I received a big box with just a single Botbot figure in it.
So the system must be telling the picker to use a big enough box for 24 toys, but the picker is only putting one in there.
Now I have to try to claim a refund again, and go through the hassle of convincing them that I only received one toy instead of 24. (I am still waiting for a refund for the first order, as I have to wait until the item is returned all the way back to America, and hope that the person who processes the refund doesn't reject it because they think that I am not sending back 24 toys.)
I really want to complete the set and Amazon is the easiest, cheapest option at the moment... but if I order it a third time before they sell out it might happen again (probably not going to happen if they are sending out a single figure). It also means that even if I did get 24 toys, it won't be a sealed master carton to guarantee a full set... it is likely to be just 24 random loose figures, possibly leaving me to then have to chase up missing figures on ebay at 10 times the price.

Can't speak of shipping, however it's cheaper from BBTS, unless your receipt there is in AUD?

I think BBTS charge GST... and their shipping rates went through the roof a few years ago... but I just can't risk buying from Amazon again, so I might just have to pay the extra* (and Entertainment Earth won't restock until JAN-FEB).

*Since Amazon Australia was in au$, the price would change based on the exchange rate - my first order was au$138, while my second order was au$123 (the us$ dropped a lot that month).
The BBTS listing is us$75, which will be about au$110. Considering the size of the box needed, I would expect about $50 shipping. And then about $16 GST if they charge it.

[Trent]

Yes BBTS charge GST.

I had the whole wave preordered and when it dropped into my pile of loot it was a total of $375aud before GST and shipping. So I cancelled most of it because I am not paying that much for Botbots. I’ll ship what I am getting in the next few weeks. I was just hoping for that G1 style Unicron action figure thingy to come in stock before I ship.

[KELPIE]

I....I... I did not know you could cancel stuff once it dropped in your PoL...
