I was in there yesterday... and they were showing me the preorders and despite Bugbites Oct 1 release, it was still up for preorder but Wave 2 which had same release was not. So who knows whats going on. I have a feeling his demand is going to go up since he's was just a niche character and then the Earthrise trailer dropped and he's one of the mercs (i think )

Oh, I should go instore. I THOUGHT I had pre-ordered BugBite and Sandstorm but I must not have completed it. They're no longer available on the site.

I just really want their goofy decos.

If you have a EB Platinum membership, does that get you a cheaper price or is the pre-order the normal retail price?

if you pick up in store when you go pick up they will adjust the price. If you ship to home go to a store with the receipt and your edge card for an adjustment

Thanks for this info. I just hit gold status so even if it's only 5% off, I didn't know why I wasn't getting the discount online.

Just because it's one of those placeholder listings that sometimes turns into a real listing. Sometimes you end up with an e-mail saying they couldn't get the item two weeks after it comes out.


But then the Spider-man retro figures all still have pizza toppings for names so who knows. Probably just being paranoid, lol.


[EDIT]And just so the link is still on the last page:

I expected Gigawatts to be 40$ish, but 60$.. that's a pass.

why? Ectotron was a voyager that cost $30 more.

You don't have to like it, and I do appreciate if it is not a price you'd like to pay. I expected it to be 50+.

Plus there's the fact that Amazon has failed to fulfill pre-orders even for legitimate listings. Amazon always seems to be a gamble, so far EB hasn't let me down.
