Did anyone actually get their NFT code after purchase? I'm realizing they never even sent it to me

I got NFTs for all 5 of the figures I purchased. They sent them almost immediately after purchase to my email.

The line must not be doing THAT bad. The pulse website says they are sold out of Morant and Tatum, which gives me hope that the line may not have flopped as bad as we initially thought. I'm a sports mega fan, so I genuinely hope this line continues, even if the price point is too high and they lack tattoos, I'm still all in on some NBA and NFL figures.

A couple listings showed up on HasbroPulse.com and we’re removed for a SLU GWP Exclusive SLAM Magazine Jason Tatum and Giannis. Does anyone know what GWP means?

Interesting…I wonder if you’ll have to get SLAM Magazine to get one.

I thought the gift with purchase was the magazine.

I bought Tatum last week when it came back it stock and it came with the Slam Magazine (which was the gift with purchase or "GWP"). The listing made no mention of it though.

Did not get the NFT. Not that I care though as I wouldn't have done anything with it.

Hopefully, they came out of the gate with the NFL ones at this price point

Just want to say, the day after these went on sale Hasbro posted about a significant profit loss and they are laying off 1000 employees. Not that I think it was solely the price of this line ofc, as each main Hasbro line is having issues right now with its community, but lowering the prices looks like Hasbro was not able to sell these at $50.

I'm an NBA maniac, and it's the only sport I watch. Probably seen every Sixers game since Joel Embiid's first year, and he's my favorite player. I watch and look at the stats so much I can usually cite shooting percentages, scoring/rebounding/assist averages, and even the listed and real heights for players (from 1980 through about 2020 basketball heights were listed with shoe height added in, but in 2020 the NBA commissioner told all the teams to stop doing that, measure their teams, and list their actual heights out of shoes, so for decades I got in the habit of looking up players' real heights). That pic in the ad for them dropping to $29.99 reminded me why I have no interest in this line yet--is Ja Morant really scaled to be half a foot taller than Trae Young and Steph Curry? All three should be around the same size, i.e. 6' 0" to 6' 2"... :?

I've been forever irritated by the manufacturers not scaling superheroes correctly, but I can mostly let that slide--but I just can't let it slide with basketball players. That's the one line where the scale of the figures matters the most, by far. Until that's baseline for the line it's a hard pass for me.

I could see myself buying Embiid, but I haven't watched reviews yet and am skeptical he's scaled correctly. If he is I'll probably end up getting him.

I ended up ordering a Lebron and a Curry because of the batch of players available because the others outside of Greek Freak might get some "Who?" questions in 10-15 years
