Not what I mean. I’m talking about how RSC pre-orders stay up for a while yet Amazon/Target pre-orders go unavailable after 2 minutes Probably a lot of factors. RSC exclusives are online only, whereas Target/Walmart are allocating a small amount online and most for in store sale. You also have bots who scoop up anything and everything thats offered. Ciampa and NXT also have niche appeal compared to Golden and Attitude Era names. But probably mostly the bots. |

I’m talking about how RSC pre-orders stay up for a while yet Amazon/Target pre-orders go unavailable after 2 minutes Comparing it specifically to the Legends, there’s only so much they will make available to pre-order as most of the figures will go out to stock the actual stores. The stock for Ringside isn’t going anywhere else and is probably a lot more than what’s made available for Legends pre-orders. Ringside typically gets multiple shipments as well, especially for ones that are popular and sell quickly. |

Oh my bad. That's a pretty good question. You'll see people buying RSC exclusives on eBay instead of from them directly. It's strange. When RSC Warrior was up for preorder the first time I saw some idiot on eBay selling the link to Ringside for $70. Not even the figure just a stupid link to get the figure. Funny thing was that it said "Ringside Exclusive" in the title. No one's that dumb, lol. I saw people buying/selling at that price in Facebook Groups. |

It wouldn’t matter if you had nothing to do & you had the figure(s) in your cart paid for, you’d get a email later on saying your preorder is canceled. Target preorders are just awful. |

Target has been doing daily new/reissue preorders for their Summer Geek Out/the collectors spot all month. I thought for sure Legends 12 would be today's offerings.

It’d be very nice to get a time when these will be up for PO. TBD = us checking all day and then losing out to bots and scalpers.

^What for? You’re going to lose out when Target can’t fill all the pre-orders. Or great you got it, & it’s on backorder for months. Cool.
These store exclusive have been executed horribly. Great for Mattel to have a contract with Target for exclusive ($$$$) bad for the collectors.

Good day for Target as it looks like they sold their Cena’s and Vader’s while people refresh and wait.

I’d at least like the chance to get them. Geez. And so would everybody else would like a chance. And how long ago do you order them? The odds are asap it’s live most will miss out. So even with a time set it doesn’t make a real difference, when Target can pull the plug because they over sold the stuff or you’re waiting a long time for them. Remember the odd times that certain figures were available for a few set backs? “At 2AM MST a 2nd wave was available” or cool I got mine to only have them canceled. |

That's what they want us to think. Lull us into complacency and then once we've given up for the day and decide to take a bathroom break - BAM! - preorders go up and sell out faster than you can say "Sgt. Slaughter"!
