Yeah I'm waiting until these hit amazon. There's just too many Hot Toys, figuarts, and three zero going on right now that require my preorders.

I'm passing on these for now as well, they just don't stand out to me that much.

You ordered a second set? I say cancel your previous order I'm starting to get nervous that toy wiz wont deliver. They never even bothered to restock today so that tells me to steer clear until further notice.

Playmates needs to tighten up their QC with these figures. I had to exchange the first Leo's multiple times and I still ended up with one with a rather floppy arm.

Toywiz are notorious rip-off merchants, have been for over a decade. I'd avoid them like the plague if I were you...

I knew something seemed fishy about them. Why would they even list these figures when Toy's R Us was the only site to announce them as an exclusive?

Well, they'd have sent some lowly staff member to TRU to buy all their stock to resell at a much higher price. They're essentially the biggest scalpers on the internet disguised as a legit shop.

Regular stuff sure, but any kind of store exclusives are scalped.

I cannot say for sure about the Turtles, but I ordered the SDCC GI Joe set yesterday & already got a shipping confirmation.

I think the notice that they have shipped will be dependent on your shipping speed you chose at checkout. I took the free standard shipping so hopefully I get my shipping notice this afternoon/sometime on Monday. My estimated delivery date is from the 28-31 of this month. I guess I will get them when I get them.

Interesting. Mine has yet to ship. Oh well I received two different emails. One an acknowledgement and another a confirmation. I know they have at least received my order. They have also put a "hold" on the money from my bank account. Probably just a matter of time till I get my shipping notice.
