I have had all my SS86 preorders filled except Grimlock. The store I frequent says they have not received any Grimlocks yet. Hopefully he will show up soon, but in general he seems like the one that is taking the longest to hit shelves.

If EB is taking too long with Grimlock, check Walmart. I've seen him multiple times on their shelves now.

That so messed. I searched for him on the EB website a couple weeks ago and it and said that the Whitby north location had a copy of 86 grimlock. I called my local EB and they had it shipped to them and they called me last Thursday to say it was available for pickup. She said at the counter that someone saw online that their store had him and called to buy it online. She refused as I had already arranged all this to get my hands on one. Crazy.

I only ever preordered skylynx from EB and it never showed up. I figure pre orders are a wash and I kinda like getting out to find something in store. I get the frustration and feel for you guys. The copy I got shouldn’t have even landed in my lap. It should have gone to someone who already preordered it. It’s the shambles.

But we are living in the days of Covid and it’s dog eat dog until 2023!

My Megatron date is set for 2021-03-25 now pre ordered on 2020-12-23. No more EB games pre orders for me.

Everyone of of my pre orders with EB Games has come through, except for Sunstreaker which they haven't gotten from Hasbro yet. Sometimes just a little bit of a longer wait than anticipated but no issues to date. Transformers and non-Transformers alike.

I'm annoyed at the delay with Kingdom megs too (I ended up buying him at WM just in case, but I'll return the EB games one to WM when he comes). So far, EB Games has been my most reliable pre-order location, more so than Amazon... And the 10% discount is good too.

How did you find out that they have not received them from Hasbro?

Just my assumption. I don't think I heard of anyone who got a Sunstreaker from EB Games. I could be wrong though and missed a post about it.

Trailbreaker was late but he arrived eventually.

Deep Cover is up for pre order. I am not sure if that has been posted before or not.

Which is odd, as I got my Trailbreaker on time from EB. When I checked on my Substreaker order with EB they said Purolator had an address issue and returned to sender, but no idea what happened to the actual stock that was sent out and why it was not re-attempted.
