According to a U.K. supplier all pre orders have been fully cancelled for Elite 106 & 107 and UE Asuka - no other info given at present.
This follows on from Mattel cancelling UK Ultimate orders last week.
What's going on??

Sounds like the UK supplier isn’t reaching the minimal amount for Mattel to find it profitable for them to ship to the UK.

Saw a brother love today in an entertainer. Smyths didn’t get him in so seems like that was their choice Mattel’s
Communication about what comes in when snd when things finish is so poor for us. I remember UE series 1-3 I think I’m store then nothing. Not even a quick tweet to say unfortunately uk stores won’t be carrying moving forward. It’s literally pop in and see.

Interesting... maybe they'll get R'n'B Greg Valentine too. Did you notice what price he/the Legends were in the Entertainer?

I got Brother Love there earlier this week.

Insanity

Tell me about it lol. Trying to buy smart but it’s not easy, which is a shame because imo the figures and range is better than ever.
