Amazon is a joke! Was gonna place my fourth order. Apparently my first 3 orders for medic 2 pack were all damaged or lost! Now they got a secondary supplier at really inflated prices. So annoyed right now.

They've been coming in and out of stock everyday when I check. Check back every morning or before you go to bed, hopefully they'll be back in stock.

Re: Amazon.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

Found a weird thing in my "more items to explore" queue tonight.



Listed at $34.99 and with a handful of apparent customer reviews was "Trans Fall 3" featuring a picture of the Autobot Clones from the Biosfera special pack. But if I go to the link it just returns a "page not found" error.


https://www.amazon.ca/Hasbro-F1142-T...dp/B08556YR1V/




I wonder if this is amazon somehow stumbling their way through setting up to maybe eventually get a proper page up to order the set that isn't done through backdoor wishlist shenanigans?

Given their problems with basically all the special sets this year they might've gotten shortstocked on a lot of stuff thanks to Corona. So they're burning through their stock quickly because of demand and can't resupply, leaving scalper marketplace sellers to fill the void.

This happened to me as well on November 22 I was able to order it so I did (my son really wants it).
It says I'll get it Dec 3-7th. Who knows if I will as all my other Amazon pre-orders got cancelled. No Ironhide/Prowl or Dirge/Ramjet and it did take 4 orders to get the medic set. - Really like that one by the way daughter is gonna be excited when she gets Lifeline.

Re: Amazon.ca Transformers Sightings and discussion

I'm hoping that all this mess is just Hasbro getting caught with their pants down on distribution and eventually things will be sorted out and there will be proper opportunities to purchase the sets.


I still have my Coneheads pre-order. It's in the indefinite "we don't know when we're getting this" holding phase, but I have not had the order canceled as far as I know. I don't really want to get the Ironhide/Prowl or Ratchet/Medic sets, but I would like the Autobot clones to balance out the Decepticon ones from TRU.

Just a little local nugget to add to the misery that has become this thread.

I wonder if my dead prime is there. Woo or maybe it's a cart full of Ratchets. It's with Pitney Bowes/Intelcom right now after all.

Already gone These things go so fast, I wonder if the scalpers have bots. There was news on ign about a group of 12 people in the UK securing 3500 units of PS5s using bots then reselling them at double the price. Don't think people would go through that much trouble for 12 dollar items though, at least i hope not.
