I also preordered Annihilus via BBTS as a backup. If they cancel too, I'll be more concerned.
Thanks so much @msword! Good to hear from you, I'm sure it's a stressful time.
I have Annihilus on order at Amazon and Deep Discount. Don't need two, just don't want to take chances.
Frikken' Amazon just cancelled my Annihilus. So both he and Archangel have now been canceled.
EDIT: Great to hear we will get an update from msword when possible
I just got the cancellation notice on Annihilus at Amazon as well. But just after reading MSWord's post. Still hopeful.
I guess I'm glad my Annihilus order was through BBTS so I don't have to worry about the cancellation issue as I'm still hopeful it will ship.
I do think it's kind of funny that Amazon canceled orders for this one that is ostensibly still coming but has not canceled pre-orders for the Super7 Vecna figure whch has been scrapped for months now. Since it's "due date" still isn't until June I guess Amazon will just leave it up and active until it's 'late' even though it was never going to come.
Amazon doesn't like any order that is late, they cancel our products all the time. Nothing to do with the reorganization as far as I know.
Public knowledge is that DST will be sold at some point later this month, you can read it in the press release:
Diamond Comic Distributors Files Voluntary Petition for Relief Under Chapter 11 - Diamond Comics
I do not have a ship date for Annihilus or Archangel yet (everyone else is after them), but as soon as I do I will be here talking about it.
Thank you for the response! Hope everything lands well for you and the other folks at DST.
Huh. Amazon canceled my Annihilus order like two months ago. I put in another preorder with BBTS.
Every single Invincible figure I've preordered at Amazon has been canceled, ironic given that it is an Amazon show. I just don't bother ordering DST figures from Amazon anymore.
Super7 canceled figure aside (imagine managing EVERY SKU on Amazon - an almost impossible task!), Amazon cancels orders for everything that runs a certain timeframe past solicit. If the Annihillus gets made, Amazon pre-orders will reopen, happens all the time.
I'd heard Diamond got a cash infusion a few months ago, so maybe that loosened some stuff in the pipeline. If BBTS has them, it sounds like the Invincible figures made it under the tariff wire.
Will be interesting to see to see what the price for Marvel Select is going forward, cause it ain't gonna be $29.99 anymore. I'm guessing $36.99
