Not sure who's paying attention, but the NECA Raph/Casey Jones 2-pack is being released today at Wal-Marts, with most likely not getting any though some getting a couple. Anybody want to pick one up for me if they see it? I just want Casey if anybody wants trenchcoat Raphael.

Hey folks. I really enjoy BSS (and even TVIV) and would hate to lose those communities.

I joined the BSS Discord, but I've never used Discord and it seems kind of chaotic, at least in terms of interface. Is everyone planning to go there, if it comes to that?

And did someone say it isn't safe to join it?

I'd also be down to pay for the two-pack if anyone comes across one. I also really just want Casey, but I'll pay for both if you don't want Raph.

One option is to just not pay when they send you the payment due email. They'll eventually ban you for this, but that's how I got out of a few pre-orders with them...

If you do it too often, they reserve the right to ban you from using them.

I think I've canceled two things with them over like five years.

I cancelled a preorder last year, and wanted to cancel one I have open now. I’m actually going to preorder something else, so they’re not even losing a sale even. Just don’t want to be banned from buying anything!

NECA just posted the web link for the 2 pack, and says it’ll go live tomorrow before 1 EST.

Did that NECA movie Shredder from Gamestop ever ship out? I remember putting in a preorder for that, but I can find NO evidence of this anywhere in my email, and I feel like I'm losing my mind. I can't check the status of an order without a confirmation number. It would make sense if there were delays what with all the apocalypses going on, I just wish I knew what was up with it. If I have to buy one off eBay, I'd rather do it while they're still reasonably priced.

Yes it did! I’ve seen it in stores before, close to its original release date (forget when that was). I debated picking up another since the one I have has a hosed up helmet but I passed on him.

It should be fine so long as people still treat it as a functionally public space and are accordingly cautious about personal details, no more or less than has been the case on SA for the past however many years.

Has Not Actually Done Cocaine
Not a toy itself but toy related, Dark Horse is putting out yet another He-Man book, this time a downright colossal book(712 pages) dedicated to the toys for MOTU, going off the description covering basically everything through the MOTUC line(including She-Ra), you'll want to secure a preorder now cause the full price is 60 bucks but Amazon has it down to just under 42 bucks at the moment(and could possibly go lower), if the other two MOTU books from Dark Horse I've bought in the past(the encyclopedia and the mini-comics collection) are anything to go off of this will be a gorgeous and very well made book

Also the Mark Bellomo guide for Vintage Star Wars toys will be getting a new edition in August if that lies in your sphere of interest

Edit: NECA twitter saying not sold out yet. So maybe just a system overload.

I thought I didn't qualify. I was considered, what was it... volatile, self-centered, and I don't play well with others.
You guys think the Snake Eyes and Cobra Commander Replica Helmets (GameStop Exclusive!) by Hasbro will be hyper popular? I really want the Snake Eyes mask but at $120 its a little too expensive for the Cartoon version design... hoping to wait out the pre-order and when GameStop is going out of business maybe snag the thing for $75?
