BigBadToyStore (BBTS) (America) items

[1AZRAEL1]

I'm getting worried about BBTS getting in the Waspy wave, as they've now stopped taking pre-orders for all four figures and for cases. They've also moved the release date (again) to January.

The worry is that if they have missed out on the Waspy wave (or missed out on more stock, if they did get in some early cases that some have said they bought), the next wave is completely different with four new toys (two of each).

They seem to postpone release dates often. I am not too worried just yet.

Though considering they haven't put up orders of cosmos snd swerve, it is kinda worrying.

Add me to the massive list of people waiting for Cosmos / Swerve pre-orders to go up. They will be the founding members of my new PoL.

I asked them a quesiton on Facebook about those pre-orders.

They said that they were still waiting on Hasbro for the preorder solicit.

What ever that means......

Probably means that until they know for sure they will be getting any from Hasbro, they won't put the preorder up.

Means for us we still don't know when/if they will be getting them. I'll wait.

It looks like Whirl is on pre-order because they only opened enough cases to cover existing pre-orders, as they still have full cases in stock (2x whirl with a Springer and Doubledealer). They don't have enough demand for the other two toys to warrant adding more of them to their inventory, just so that they can list those Whirls for sale.
The revision case is yet to be released (2x whirl, 2x Rhinox), so they have Whirl back up for pre-order for that wave (they'd just open up enough cases to cover pre-orders, but since Rhinox is still in stock, they won't want to open up any extra cases).

In other words, if you want Whirl from BBTS, I suspect that it won't be "in stock" at all... I would recommend that you need to reserve/pre-order one for when they get in the revision cases. (they charge you when they arrive, not when you place the order)

Massive day for me at BBTS with multiple pre orders all coming in
Got one lot out, and waiting for it to actually ship so I can get the second lot out.

(Small import limit here in New Zealand means small parcels and staggering their arrival time)

What surprised me though was singles and cases of all items came into stock, unlike previous orders where just the sets got shipped.

Oh and singles Whirl's did come into stock and they did have many left over for a few hours. Then I guess word got out...

It means that Hasbro has not offered these items up to North American retailers yet. BBTS couldn't order them even if they wanted to.
