Goose egg. I figure if one is made available on here I'd get it if for nothing else but to flaunt it on HT, but I'm not gonna lose sleep if i never see one.

It's not like it's business suit Destro, or anything.

Anyone who got a BBTS order please post up when it arrives. I'm curious how many orders they actually fulfill. They had over 200 for pre order.

I love that Hasbro never bothered to take a newer pic of the production model, with the correct knee pads.

$19.99 is better than any price I've seen so far, but aren't they based outside the US?

I've got way too much money tied up in China right now with Paypal (iGear coneheads) to bother saving $10 with Zarana, but you're right, you should be covered with PayPal when it comes to this one.

I've had the jets preordered since Christmas, and have only gotten one so far, so my PayPal window is long gone. My fingers are crossed that I'll get the ship notification soon, but I don't like doing that...

Haha, no way I can do that. I'll wait till my next shipment comes in before I do those preorders, as much as I want them. I have a long history of bad luck (Not with e-tailers but in general) and I'm not putting all my eggs in one basket. :)

To Blood's question, I just got one from BBTS, one from eBay, and apparently my buddy got me one direct from Con. All pink, no cold slither variants.

Two pinks from BBTS, one black from ebay. The face is not as attractive as I think she should be. I know she's a biker skank, but she's got to be pretty enough to effectively distract/deceive someone.

Mainframe has bad taste in girls...so what...:D

I mean it irritated me and all, and their server crashing and them not answering the phones or whatever is awful customer service, but what can they do? It really is an awful cart system, but not worth gnashing teeth over. Go to eBay, quit whining.

They're the same people who keep waiting for stuff to go to ROSS before buying it.

Seriously. The whole collector scene is going to be the death of the line.

Kids are dependant on their parents buying them stuff, but at least they are not cheap bastards the collectors are. I think the cheap Ross sales did more overall damage to the brand than anything else.

I have to say I agree with this totally. Once it starts happening consistantly (or has it), people will start to expect it and not buy in the retail stores first. Once that happens, retail stores will stop carrying them even more than they are now. I for one look at the new waves, pick out the ones I like, and buy them the second I see them in no special order. They are already hard to find and I will not gamble on whether I will see them again or not.

Yeah i think figures might be safe, but retailers are not going to bet on bigger sets or exclusive stuff when they had to write so much of it off last season.

Obviously bad product deserves to die, and I'm not a proponent of telling people to buy stuff so we get more stuff.. No one should reward a bad product. The problem is people are waiting on everything.. And then turning around bitching when nothing new comes out.

Ugh. Their whole mentality makes me feel dirty.

Ive checked once or twice MW but if I dont get one its no biggie. Everyone is starting new threads to bitch about the same thing. But as has been mentioned here it isnt fiscally responsible to upgrade for one day a year. Then theres people wanting to start petitions or bombard them with phone calls, its cracking me up

Well I just tore a CS rep a new one. I don't care if they had nothing to do with the server not working. I'm pretty sure the girl started crying. Good, that's what the employee gets since I didn't get what I'm entitled to. F$#k them!! I'm done since I couldn't get one figure. DONE!!! I'll have my farewell thread up in a minute! Later bitches!!

Nope, it's all going to the rifle range. I'm going to destroy each one individually with a .270. Already bought a few boxes of shells and it's going on. All my Zarana's and variants get the 12 gauge. Starscreak Striker is getting a SMG to it. I want them to hurt like my child hood now is because I didn't get what I wanted that I never had as a kid. I'll post the video next week. Don't try to stop me! I'm doing it. I swear.

After that I'll post the thread where you can all beg me to stay.

Don't forget to prep your "I'm back guys!" Tjhread, where you randomly found something you were looking for and it hooked you back into the collecting game.. oh, and you actually didn't get rid of all your stuff, you were REALLY going to, but had to help your grandma or something and couldn't get around to it.

That's it, now i'm calling hasbro to complain. Not about Zarana, but about ruining your love of the hobby. When is enough enough hasbro. Why don't they just drive out to you and kick your dog while their at it. Maybe even tilt all the pictures on your walls and pee on your toilet seat :D
