It just sucks. I was buying one. For me. Not to flip. I was there right at 12. Credit card on the table. Ready to buy and sold out. I don't understand the quantities made and why loyal fans ready to buy cannot. Sucks.

Added to my cart at 12. Waited in line to check out for 10 minutes; kept seeing available in my cart UNTIL it was my turn to check out and then it was out of stock. Grabbed a Cody, but dear Lord, I was hoping this would be better than last year’s Sarge debacle. I was wrong. Exactly what happened to me. 2 in my cart and waited 10 minutes only to say sold out. Sucks

I’m so sorry for those who missed out. I know how awful it feels to count down the minutes and then lose out.
I lost out on Slaughter last time and the bloated price plus shipping/customs to UK was awful.

Mine said 4 minute wait, 3, 2, 1, less than a minute, calculating, 3, then boom... it let me check out for my one. I was panicking when it put me back at 3 minutes.

I got one. I tried to get two, but the "+" button wasn't working for me when I tried to increase the quantity. I tried to put in a second single order, but was sold out by the time I was waiting in line. Oh well, at least I got one. Still, I wish this wasn't so ridiculously time sensitive and difficult.

Has any company ever made it so hard for us to give them our money? Man got up at 2am for nothing. It's not really justified if their goal is to actually make money.

Wrong thread but.... noticed Mattel Creations website has images of the Chase Bret for $23 but doesn't specify it's a Chase. Wonder how accurate this is.

Congrats to those that got 1 or 2. Very happy for you. . I just wanted the Zeus but not for 80 bucks. Very cool item though.

I had it in my card and started the process within a couple of seconds of the link going live. It wasn't a must have for me, but I really don't get how Mattel can't/won't produce enough of these to even attempt to meet demand.

Why can’t these idiots at mattel figure out there is a higher demand then they anticipate? Happened with slaughter.
Also happened last month with Wundar and let’s not even discuss the complete Crap show that was matty collector for all those years of 2 minute sellouts. I can’t figure it out. You’d think these morons would know there is a higher demand.

Yeah, I was wondering if the Captcha defeats script/bots. I'm sure they CAN beat a Captcha in this day and age, but I bet it kept a lot at bay.

Disgusting. Had to pay 155 on eBay due to no fault of my own. I had it in my cart immediately and had a wait 8 minutes and then sold out. Makes me sick but had to get Hogan and this is probably the only Zeus we are getting

I went through the same thing. I wanted 2x too. Email confirmed.

That Jurassic Park box looks great …..Anyone picking it up? It's a great set and I thought about getting it. However, I picked up the regular Hammond T-rex this week and decided that's good enough.
