I pre ordered Fright Rider, Sprocket, and Flashwing about a month ago from TRU. Received an email this morning saying only Fright Rider would be shipped because the other two were on back order. I really hate dealing with TRU.

My Flashwing and Hot Dog preorders have the status - 'Special Order: Awaiting inventory'

Interesting.. maybe you ordered before me

I preordered on the 6th, I just have a backorder notice.

Same here: 8 of 10 on backorder. I expect that they will sort it out and we will all get our orders filled.

I have all kinds of back-order notices on wave 2 and wave 3 figures. I hope they all stand until they come out.

So what exactly is back order?
Goad, Acti, stop releasing so much. May as well make everything available at this rate.

One of the ways they earn more money is by releasing our favorites later.

^True statement

backorder is something like they >.> out of stock temporary and will send it out when they get more in stock.

They just cancelled one figure from my pre-orders. One single figure. Lightcore Hex. Very strange.

That's odd. They just sent me an email stating they shipped mine.

I got that email also - that they were going to ship it, then they cancelled that one figure and issued me some sort of eGift certificate for the cost of it. I guess that they must have charged my card already for it before they figured out that they did not have it...? Maybe some rocket scientist at tru.com thought S2 Hex was LC Hex? Dunno. Looking around it does not appear that she was supposed to be in either wave 1 or 2 so it does seem likely that a mistake was made. I hope you get yours though.

Your the reason why their in business

i just canceled the whole order and got the game+figures at the store. I don't think Flashwing will be too rare.

Yeah, but mine actually shipped. Mine has left the building. I am able to track it.

So was LC Hex part of wave 1 or 2? She seems to be an enigma about where she exactly fits into the wave ship schedule. Toywiz.com claims a release date of Oct '12. The gamestop.com link shows a picture of Jet-Vac on her product page. It's all very odd. I wish they TRU had just left my backorder in place.

LightCore Hex is meant to be part of a future wave... SERIES TWO Hex was meant to be the Wave Two one...

Right now both the Giants Legendary 3-Pack and Fright Rider are on backorder on my end...which annoys the heck out of me because the blasted thing still says it's available for order on the site.

My sprocket, flashwing, and hot dog are on backorder

Yes - I still have a whole bunch of backorders for the rest of the LC figs, hot dog, and a slew of other S2 re-poses. I will just have to wait and see how all of these play out. Dollars to donuts says that I will pick them up at B&M TRU before tru.com gets around to shipping them..
