Missed the train too since opening orders would've been 5 in the morning for me. BUT, from what I hear the preorders were open for a long while which is hopeful compared to previous ones, good news.
I think I can snag a Nash when the release date draws closer

Was at work all day. Completely missed out on the pre-order. Oh well. Same here. I checked it on my lunch break and missed it by an hour. No big deal. My gut tells me these won’t be overly difficult to find, despite previous sets being tough for me. |

I ordered all 4 this morning at 905 without an issue. My confusion is how can 12 be up for preorder as a whole yet 11 is a mess and Studd has his own case? What is up with this line?  ? |

It is weird that half of 10, all of 11 and pre orders for 12 seemed to drop all in one week or so.

I assume when people say stuff like this it’s just typical speak or they weren’t around for REAL warmers like Tito Santana’s HOF elite. |

I understand what you're saying and God dang did that Tito last forever it seems.. But heenan came out what series 7? We got series 10 and 11 trickling in stores and we still have Heenan on pegs.(2 for my area) |

Yeah and there were still Tito’s on the peg for 3 years if not longer. |

I know they’re floating around, but they’ll go eventually. They all seem to anymore. I’m not sure what series it was now that you mention it but seven sounds right. Even though they were on the pegs at the time, they also didn’t seem to cause an issue with series 8/9/10 from coming to stores either. |

Also Series 10 got split to online only. Same thing happened with Ultimate edition because of Nakamura. UE4 didn't make to retail, and UE6 was online only. These are obviously things Mattel are doing so the lines to get axed. |

But were the pre orders up longer because people were at work or it was really early in most places? Or did they fix the pre ordering? I did see where 12 now shows pre orders sold out, never seen that before .

i was able to snag a Billy Gunn this morning; i wanted him and Nash the most, but i was too late for the Nash. i could've gotten piper or JYD, but i feel like they are gonna be plentiful.

If anyone has a macho chase I’d trade my regular and chase Brutus for it.

Just bought a Scott Hall off Mercari for $45. It is what it is.

I did see where 12 now shows pre orders sold out, never seen that before . You could only buy 1 of each figure per order. So if you wanted 2 Nash figures you had to pay for one, then start a new transaction to get another. I'm assuming that slowed down scalpers a bit? |

It is weird that half of 10, all of 11 and pre orders for 12 seemed to drop all in one week or so. They all were released now for order because Studd and Beefcake were delayed, series 11 had no pre order and have already started shipping, and series 12 was up for pre order and won't be out until early October. |

Still weird that they all became available for purchase or preorder all around the same time. My big worry was getting all the Legends figures for retail price, and I just need a Hall, Bambam and Macho to do that. Didn't expect to drop another 250 this week on a ring. Really hope we get Doink! |
