I have the feeling that it was very last minute, if indeed Amazon refused the delivery because they had already cancelled the orders. Although they also got the Marvel Legends Children of Thanos box set very late, but in that case they hadn't made it available for preorder. Could also be that Hasbro didn't want bad piblicity. Who knows, really? They all fucked up, that's for sure.

Yeah Canada needs to get on the bandwagon when it comes to destruction of unused goods. There are a number of countries around the world who have now made it illegal to dump unused goods. Supposedly it forces companies to work harder/better with their supply chains.

Given that the pre-orders started three months ago at these small retailers, it couldn't be that last minute. They've had to have known for a while by now.

But Amazon canceled the orders at the end of July, so whatever was available a few months ago was not from Amazon's allotment.

I learned this the hard way in the past. Turn on thread notifications to be alerted to new updates. It can get annoying with the amount of updates, but if I didn't have notifications on, I would have definitely missed this opportunity, too. And who knows, there might be more inventory trickling out.

I feel ya man. I work nights so if something is released during the day I miss it. This time it was my day off and I was driving to my parents' place 90min away. It's a cutthroat hobby we have

Re: Got Coneheads? List of retailers that might...
Just had it delivered from CMD store (first time). Didn't love paying more than retail but I've had my share of deals over the years that I can live with it.

My Coneheads also arrived from CMD today and it sucks that they charged more for them plus shipping but in the end I have them and they look great !
