if this has already been answered, I apologize. but I remember hearing a week or 2 ago that RSC was waiting to hear from Mattel about the status of their shipments of DM Sting. and with more and more people finding him at retail at both Wal-Mart and now Target as well, just wondering if any word WAS received from Mattel about when you're going to get these in? I find it hard to believe Mattel can still stick to the mid-to-late August date now.

I'm trying to be patient on this. I haven't seen Sting in my area yet but it'd be tough to leave on the shelf while I continue to wait on this pre-order. I'm guessing if RSC has heard from Mattel on this, the news isn't good, or else we'd know something. I would imagine they would produce the entire run of these in one shot, to save set-up/change over cost, so they should all be ready to go...unless I'm way off on that assumption lol.

I don't WANT to do that, but it's hard with 7,256 people on here having him already, and those of us with preorders still waiting.

Hes on back order though. So it will be another couple/few weeks. The internet is the best/worst hype machine. "We'll all get ours in due time, but theyre getting theirs first!" I can understand being mad paying the premium price and still waiting, but I cancelled my order because every DM has been super easy to find and discounted. Theyre 23.99 currently

He seems to be showing up in more areas today, so I'm sure Ringside will get their shipment in the next couple of days.

I don't like how rsc is offering people free table sets to not cancel but what about us loyal customers who aren't canceling do we get something for keeping our orders? lol I'm serious tho it's Not fair that the ones who won't keep their orders n cancel are getting bribed to keep there pre orders with free rsc table sets yet us loyal ones will just get our sting .

I hope they get them in soon. I don't care about getting it before anybody else, but pre-ordering something online that usually gets it a few weeks earlier then retail, that has already been delayed, then for it to be cheaper at retail and the pre-orders not getting any info from RSC ... THAT is whats frustrating about it.

Because there is no reason to bribe people who don't care about the delay and keep their orders anyways. If the customer is fine with the delay, doesn't want to cancel, then why offer something that's going to affect the margins? It only makes sense to offer it to people who are about to bail on their orders, because if they do, they lose a lot more than the $3 (retail) table they're offering

With you on this. I'm okay waiting and I won't actively hunt for it but, if I find it, that baby is mine and I'll cancel my order.

We posted this in another thread but if you e-mail your Sting order # to cs@ringsidecollectibles.net just as for the free table offer you saw on WrestlingFigs along with the color that you'd like.
