That's why I have stopped with a lot of preorders and buy in stock. I gauge if I should buy by if the preorder sells out and how quickly it sells out. The Marvel Legends I got were figures I wanted but knew would go on sale for instance, same with Lio Convoy.

Last year really burned me with sales on things i bought, sometimes within a week. I am done with preorders after that

What's your assessment for those new animated spiderman 2 packs, you think they'll drill be in stock by next year's sale?

I think most will. now it is spider man, so there is a good chance I'm wrong on this one, but given these will be 2-packs that are more pricey, I think there will be ones left over for future sales

I didn't take the chance.

I don't want any of them, so I am good in this case.

I think Doc Ock is going to be in demand due to the bendable arms but that's it. I see a lot of people dumping the core figure on eBay. I have to admit I'm kinda pissed that they held this release back, had I known I would've passed on the Silk/Ock two-pack for this.

Same here. Though they are different versions. Unlike other characters, Doc Ock was different from his comic version with that armor and more heroic proportions. This is a new mold rather than a redeco and the key to all in demand exclusives is whether or not it completes a set, and this does.

As expected, looks like new items have been added to the ongoing warehouse sale.

And with that, I scooped up a Vintage Beast Wars Iguanus, Legacy Skullgrin, Legacy Evolution Hot Shot, and Legacy Evolution Scraphook.

Awesome! Grabbed Needlenose, Scraphook, Hot Shot, Pointblank and reissue Iguanus.

Pulse, you sonovabitch, me and my friend are in!



139$can shipped and taxed each. Not bad. Not bad at all.

Yeah, I double dipped as well after they added Needlenose, Pointblank, and Scraphook. I threw in Twitch too to make the threshold for the deal. My brother got a whole bunch of figures and saved a considerable amount.

Weirdly, my total ($78.13) was nearly identical to the total of my last Pulse order ($78.14), only off by one cent.

Glad you all are benefiting. There was literally only one item in the whole sale I wanted. I tried to look at other items to meet the threshold, but it just dosen't make sense to spend $75 + on something you really dont want . But I feel I did benefit in a secondary way. I was able to get the one item I wanted from eBay (someone who obviously took advantage of the sale as well), and with only taxes to pay (shipping was free) I ultimately paid less than I would have if I got the single item on Pulse, so we'll call that a moral victory .

Yep, dammit.

Why didn't Pulse just put EVERYTHING in the warehouse sale at once?

If they add things again, I'll be not buying. One order with their ultra expensive 30$US of shipping is enough.

Also, anyone know how long it usually take for Pulse to fully process the orders and to ship them?

Not even 1 day

Took several days for me. The order I placed on 3/7 didn't get a label until 3/12 (arrived today), the order I placed on 3/8 didn't get a label until 3/14 (expected tomorrow, but judging from the tracking it'll probably be Saturday), and the order I placed 3/13 got a label on 3/15, probably because the orders are slowing down.

It took 2 days for me.

So it depends I guess.
So it's just the usual delay like any other shops.

Yes it very much depends. It's usually 3-4 days processing minimum for my orders, then another 10 days to get to me on the west coast because Pulse uses FedEx ground which is super slowwwwww. I only use Pulse now if there is absolutely no other option.

I've placed two orders with the warehouse sale. The first took six days to finally ship, while the second took two days.

The first order arrived two days after it shipped, while the second hasn't arrived yet; it's been three days and the second order's estimated delivery date is still "Pending".

At least YOUR shipping is free.
Canadians have to pay 30$US of shipping for a single core class toy... or 2 titans.

My experience was pretty much the same; initial warehouse sale business meant it took longer to ship, but it has slowed down now. My 2nd order was ordered monday, shipped wednesday, arrived thursday.

Only if you have Pulse premium. If you don't, you still get charged shipping

Pulse no longer offers free shipping, at any treshold. You have to pay an annual member fee for free shipping.

^Exactly. The last thing t got from Pulse was Deathsaurus, and they don't even offer discounted shipping. If you ordered 5 of them, you paid 5x the shipping unless you are a premium member. I get that it may be Beneficial to some, but an elitist paywall is why the TFCC and convention exclusives are sore spots for many.

At least Americans have the option.
