So.... just got a notification that Wal Mart has shipped out my Night Force Shockwave and Cycle -  the full priced one that I cancelled a million years ago when I decided it was too expensive.    I already have my NF Shockwave in hand that I ordered when they dropped the price by $20 -  so I definitely don't want this second, much more expensive one.      I know for sure that I cancelled that order -  I had verified on their site more than once.   Of course now my order history has been wiped away on their nonsense site,  so I can't see it.   So when they deliver this package I'm going to have to take it to the store and wait in the horrible return line for a refund and then they are only going to offer to refund me the sale price -  because of course they are.     I hate Wal Mart so much.

Why not just return it online? Walmart offers free Fedex pickup.
And you will be refunded what you were charged. That's how it works.

Yeah?    I've never done that before,  I guess I'll have to try it.    Just annoyed at the whole thing.

Ok, so got loads of Joe's the other day. 5 eels from ee. Torch jinx and gnawg from Amazon. Nf spider wolf or whatever and tunnel rt from walmart

Jinx, want red neck and arms, but she's pretty dope. The unmasked head seems to not fit tight, don't really habe any interest in using it anyway. I do plan on getting more for parts in the future. 

Gnawg. Complete reuse and repaint except a few things, not bad in comparison to vintage. The warthog is really nice. The broken tooth with the nail in it is pretty hard to see but pretty cool, lol. Peircings are cool. Monkey is OK, 

Torch, really nice, mindbender boots went unnoticed  til they were pointed out. Hands are extremely hard to hold the rubbery torch. Nit sure it'll it's the wrong hinges used on the wrist or the torch just sucks. Flames hold be more bolder, and broader, but they'd be way to heavy, so the skinny flame is understandable.  

Nf figs got for parts.  And to combine the tunnel rat to make a closer to the vintage one with darker pants. 

 

I think that's all I got. I know I got a lot that day. Got. What if Goliath for the baf part and probably use the head for a joe and maybe the arms and stuff.

it's super simple man. Usually you can drop it off at Walgreens.  Actually you can drop it off at the store as well. Then that will most likely end up in the clearance area discounted a hair. Then you go back and buy it, if that's the case hahaha.

Anyone know if the 6 inch walking dead motorcycles scale with Joe's?

Check your bank account, I bet you got that second figure for free.  Walmart probably refunded you and still shipped because yeah, Walmart is confusingly disconnected and dumb when it comes to their online store.

 

pumped about Quarrel.  I’ll be waiting for a sale on the pack but it looks good.  I’m still not a fan of the giant vests and shoulder armor they add to some figures but at least the shoulders can probably be removed to get a more classic look.

Weird issue with my Retro Beachhead, the trigger finger/thumb area on him has melted plastic or something, the area is really shiny and he's missing the tip of his trigger finger, it's a shortened nub.  Can't fit his finger into any trigger guards, so I guess my Beachhead is a lefty lol.  Never seen this QC issue on a Classified before.  Otherwise he's fantastic.  The colors look very nice in person.

Target has shipped the Tiger Paw. TF Roadblock and Tripwire seem like they are preparing to ship.

I'm so annoyed about the Tiger Paw — saw one on the shelf Thursday and of course was denied at register. Was online at 2 a.m. when they became available and there are 2 Tiger Paws left between eight stores in my area — nice work following the street date Target. Did try to order one for pickup at one of the stores but the order was cancelled. 

It's no big deal that I can't order right now, I'm patient and I assume they'll come in stock online eventually — but to see that no one followed the street date yet I was somehow singled out is a complete joke. That is such a garbage policy.

Target becomes such a clusterf*ck around reset time.  I have to imagine both the Tiger Paw and two-pack will be common in two weeks.  My Tiger Paw I preordered isn't coming for another week and a half for some reason.

Opened the Night Force Shockwave pack, it's alright.  Kind of wish I had stuck to passing on it.  Shockwave is fine if not a little boring.  His helmet looks huge on his head (hate the overlay helmet, wish it were a head), his backpack looks small, and his extra weapons aren't all that great (love the MG but I have a bunch already).  After opening Torch and Beachhead, this pack just isn't wowing me in any way.  The elbows on my Shockwave are loose, and will always be that way thanks to pinless joint tech.

There's also a piece missing from the sidecar that keeps the wheel in place.  Seems to be an issue with every copy.

Roadblock and Tripwire shipping from Target. I had totally forgot about the Tiger Paw. I think my order is with Pulse. Edit, it was with Target, preparing to ship.

Keep forgetting sometimes Target will pull inventory from actual stores rather than hubs. My Tiger Paw is coming from a city about an hour away and I don’t t think Target has a hub there.

Shipping notification for the two-pack here, too. Actually got a bunch of Target preorders all moving at the same time. 

I'd LIKE the Tiger Paw but I'm not going to drive myself nuts trying to find one, but I missed it at preorder so I may be SOL anyway.

There was one store near me that showed PAW in stock. It wasn’t or it got allocated to ship. I think Target just got a little initially and more will be coming later.

i did find Roadblock and Tripwire. 

Thwipp!

My Tiger Paw orders said 'Preparing for delivery' yesterday.
Today they say 'Backordered". Hrumpf!
