Thanks for your knowledge on this board. I have a few questions please. I pre-ordered last year August 30th 2021 WWE Fan Takeover Ultimate Edition Hulk Hogan. It kept changing dates but I was beyond patient. I saw people getting them and didn't understand why I didn't. Did they order x-amount and run out? Since it was exclusive to them did they reorder and I was on the 2nd batch? According to MY ACCOUNT I was still getting it. So I contacted them and they saw it in my account but said no. No more. This is what I don't understand about these kind of exclusives? I ordered the Mattel Creations Life Size ring and exclusive figures. Can they just decide to show I ordered it but just not give it to me? I know they will - same with Ringside. Same with Target. Same with Walmart for me .. but Amazon I have had issues am I alone? Is there a way to rectify this? Also, the Colosieum figures of Hulk and Funk. When and where are they available? Also with this new Shawn Michaels Fan take over figure? Where is it? Thanks for your help here.

So in a nutshell, Amazon is garbage when it comes to these exclusives which thankfully after the upcoming Goldberg figure they won’t be getting more ultimates for a little bit. Essentially what seems to have happened when the hogan figure first came out was the listing was leaked before images were shown, allowing a lot of people to buy them before it was officially listed. That was the first “sale” of these before that link was taken down and a proper one went up which sold out shortly after the fact. If you ordered during that second or third time frame they were available, the estimated date has been this week for quite some time. Nobody really knows if the Hogans scheduled to hit august 3rd are actually coming or not, so it’ll either be a pleasant surprise or another delay notification. The best way to grab these is to follow pages on IG or accounts on Twitter when they go live. The coliseum figures will be released on Mattel creations this fall, and as for the latest information they will be limited so if you want them, be online the day and time they’re available. Create an account and add your information to make for a quicker checkout process.

1.) Amazon carries millions of items and unfortunately toys isn't their main concern. Add on top of that Mattel's shaky distrobution. The Hogan's are coming in a second batch according to Mattel but know one knows when, or if they're even coming.
2.) Funk/Hogan going up as a 2-pack this fall on Mattel Creations.
3.) Amazon HBK: see #1. But they seem to have started shipping these for US customers just within the last day or so. I assume it'll go back up to order shortly, just like the UE Warrior and UE Triple H did.
Bonus answer!: Every one of these topics has a long thread dedicated to them. Just take a moment to read the first few pages or last few pages of each one to see what's going on, or just leave a comment in the thread itself.

The Amazon Hogan sold out almost instantly. I believe Amazon ordered a second production, but the ship date was about a year out. I'm guessing that had to do with when they could slot it into the production schedule.
My order says arriving Wednesday. I don't see that happening, but pretty sure Steve confirmed that Amazon had ordered second batches on Warrior and Hogan. If someone from Amazon customer service told you otherwise, they're just going off of whatever is in the system. Steve is going to have a much more accurate picture than a random customer service rep.

Amazon CS told me they don’t know when or if more Hogans are coming
Mine has said for months that they’ll email when available
I bet if someone with an actual delivery date reached out they would say that they’re sure it will be delivered by that date
They are a joke

I think you're expecting a bit much, to expect that a customer service rep in a call centre knows the finer details of Amazon and Mattel's dealings about a Hulk Hogan figure.

And it is strange that the orders were cancelled and not just delayed until another arbitrary date which is all that the august 3rd date was to begin with. Had there been communication from mattel to Amazon that the hogans were def still coming a postponement is what they’d most likely do.

I received my Hogan order yesterday. It's possible that there are cancelled because there is simply no more stock coming. Blame demand.

I got an email from Amazon overnight asking me to approve a shipping delay on Hogan. (I placed my order on 8/30/21, and I had a delivery date listed until a couple months ago when I got a new credit card and updated my billing information, and since then it has said they don't have an estimated delivery date.) So anyway, even after that flurry of cancellations, maybe there is a small chance I will actually get one, but I won't hold my breath.

Anybody know why the other Amazon Hogan Thread was locked? Someone decided to turn it into a political discussion. Let's not do that.

Steve provided a response in the Q&A Hey Steve, can Mattel do something about Hogan FanTakeover? We waited literally one year after the preorder and then Amazon has cancelled everything I sent some questions out to the team that handles this immediately on seeing the various cancellation posts but I don’t have all the answers yet. What I do know is only a small amount of orders have been cancelled and the majority of customers who pre-ordered will have their orders fulfilled starting in the next few days. Still trying to see what if anything can be done about the cancellations and why that even occurred in the first place.

It seems that it has been a HUGE amount of orders that have been cancelled, and only a few honoured.
I've had a different story each time I have tried to speak to Amazon in regards to this, as I believe the second production run was to fill the Pre Sales on Amazon.
I have been told that order was cancelled due to stock not being available, to an even more interesting excuse that the order was cancelled automatically by the system due to the order being place over a year ago!
If that is the case, does that mean Amazon will come into stock of a bunch of Hogans with no Order allocations that they will then put up for sale on the website, which will come as a blow to those who have sat waiting patiently for a year for this figure to have it cancelled and sold to someone else?
