so people who PRE-ORDERED Vader are having their orders put on hold or delayed.....but that figure is showing up IN STOCK on the website this morning and people are able to order it now? this is  ing disgusting. It is a ing joke!! Mine still hasn’t shipped either and I preordered as soon as they went up but Steve/Mattel and Target won’t do a damn thing about it! |

Mine shipped this morning and I got a late preorder in on Vader. It was backordered for like a day though.

Target really is baffling and frustrating. Every pre-order, I've ordered within an hour or less of links dropping and never been in the first wave of shipments. So it's clearly not based on order time. I'm a RedCard holder, so no priority there.
The only thing (aside from being totally random) I can think of is that they may go off of geography depending on where the figure ships from.

Now everything i have preordered on Target, i have gotten. (Eddie, Volkoff, Taker). But its absolutely abysmal why they always end up on shelves or ship to late preorders before the early preorders. |

Guess I should have looked earlier, looks like it's sold out again...

Most I have ended up finding in store before my pre-order finally shipped, so I just cancelled. Of the ones that shipped, I finally got 2 Greg Valentines after months of waiting. And I also got my 2 Jake Roberts after maybe a 1 month delay. M$M was cancelled without explanation. But it was a lot easier to justify wasting time and gas in hopes of finding 3/4 new figures. I just want the Vader, so I'm not chasing like crazy for one figure. |

I’ve started preordering these as my loose set not expecting to get them. If I do, it’s convenient that I don’t have to chase them down. I haven’t had any trouble finding all of these in the wild where I am fortunately.
I preordered all of 9 and got them all with no delays. So far my Cena has shipped and it looks like my Vader may ship soon, fingers crossed.

Within the past couple days, my order went from backordered to preparing to ship and I just got the notification right now that Cena/Vader shipped.
Give it a couple of days/week and hopefully your preorders will ship out. They aren't done sending them out yet.

When I was able to get PO's in for the other Legends, I encountered no significant issues. It's the instant sellouts of the one figure listed at a time that I never win out on that drives me to seek elsewhere.

So my Cena looked like it was preparing to ship, but now it’s back together with Vader showing backorder. It really is ridiculous. I’m so tired of these store exclusives. Don’t even want to think how much extra I’ve spent over past couple years having to pay scalpers on evilbay

My Vader has been stuck on preparing to ship for about 10 hours but still says expected deliver day is Monday.

Missed out on Vader pre order and was frustrated, however today I was able to order one but accidentally chose store pickup. I was thinking it would ship to store from distribution center, but then an hour later I received a notification that my order was ready at my local Target. Went there after work expecting it to be a mistake but shockingly I got Vader!!!! Unbelievable.

I stop ordering or pre-ordering from target and walmart because of all the issues. One order I got shipped months after seeing them in stores, one was shipped before I saw items in store, once had a order cancelled. Do I think it 100% sucks what goes on yes, but people needs to stoping b****ing and complaining, at this point we all know the risk we take pre-ordering stuff from both places so either stop pre-ordering and go hunting or if you do pre-order take the risk and in the words of Chris Jericho "Would you please shut the hell up"
