I have never seen so much whining over a preorder. People complaining they can’t buy something that’s not even been released yet. Amazon exclusives have never been hard to get. Not even that Ultimate Rock. Just show a little patience. Everyone that wants these figs are gonna be able to get em.

Not even that Ultimate Rock. Just show a little patience. Everyone that wants these figs are gonna be able to get em. Because we've wanted to secure our pre-order for weeks now. The figures went live too early the first time. Then a date was announced weeks later, but both were within 2 minutes no longer available and since then practically nothing has happened for a month. And now a date has recently been announced again and this time they didn't even go live. It's annoying. Even if the figure is probably easy to buy, as a collector you want to place your pre-order and be 100% sure of your purchase. |

Plenty of those have been canceled recently. And I get the process has been botched but it’s not that big of a deal. It’s a preorder of something that’s not going to be hard to obtain once it is released. |

Amazed/horrified by those who claim to have taken a day off of work for this, and then have the gall to complain about it.

Collecting figures is a lot of peoples passion and Hulk Hogan is one of many of our childhood heroes. So this figure is different from many others and we’ve been getting the runaround about it. So with the lack of information and the way most exclusives have gone, I’m going under the assumption this item is sold out. Just hoping that’s not the case |

Probably the least iconic version of the character in his entire WWF run. I don’t think this figure was on very many people’s list of wants prior to it being announced. |

How do people like this Kushida figure? I think it loos horrible. The face looks nothing like him and the white shorts are huge. This over here is a real collector, very happy to see that i am not the only one who noticed that. The proportions are very bad to be honest. |

i hope they can limit it somehow for the 1st intial surge of pre-orders. like target has done with there restocks. i know it isnt fool proof but i do think it helps at least at the start.

I’ve been a long time lurker here but all the dope new product coming out had me excited to post and talk about it. I don’t know if it is the state of the world at large or what but this sub seems to have become crazy negative the past few months. It was always a little defensive and negative but as of late every 3rd post makes me wince at the negativity. |

I'm getting it because he's a back to the future guy in series 88(mph), too punny to resist |

Probably the least iconic version of the character in his entire WWF run. I don’t think this figure was on very many people’s list of wants prior to it being announced. For me, it’s an ultimate red/yellow Hogan prior to his WCW run so it’s must. I mean any Hogan is a must. I’m sorry but nothing Mattel has said about Hogan and Hardy has come to fruition. We were told numerous times information would be coming very soon and so far nothing. It’s impossible that nobody can get an answer out of Amazon in a month and a half. A few days, sure, maybe a week for somebody to get back to you if they are out of the office or whatever, but a month and a half no way. I’m not flipping out or demanding blood here, just explaining why many of us are frustrated over this fig. I can’t even tell you how many hours I’ve spent refreshing in the last month and a half. 100% shouldn’t be like that. |

Childhood hero. Hahaha
If a toy of a character dictates someone’s life that much… that’s not a good thing.

It's absolutely no different than people going crazy for Star Wars or Marvel figures, or collectors getting excited over sports memorabilia. I collect memorabilia of my own childhood heroes, and I really enjoy it. I feel sorry for those who can't get that sort of happiness. |

I'm in the ballpark of really disliking the increasing negativity here and consistent complaining from certain people, but there are times when something is really frustrating, and I think it's okay to talk about those frustrations. This is a forum entirely dedicated to wrestling action figures after all, so like, that's what we're going to talk about--good, bad and ugly.
Popping a quick edit in to say none of my frustrations about this Amazon Hulk are toward Steve and the team. It's quite clear this problem is entirely out of his hands, and I'm sure he is about as frustrated with it as we are.

Your username on a forum for wrestling toys is literally “Save Us Triple H” and you take time out of your day to post on that forum multiple times. I’m sure some would argue that wrestling figures dictate your life too, especially your love for Triple H. Let’s not judge people for how passionate they are. |

The difference is, I’m not up in arms upset because I can’t get an action figure when I want it. With my “love for Triple H”. Which I wasn’t aware of. Haha Not knocking anyone’s passion towards anything. I just can’t relate to being upset over a pre-order of an action figure. I collect lots of different lines too. |
