I'm wondering for you folks that have multiples ordered and haven't received them all yet did you use the stickers or Flag points? It might be that the folks that ordered extras with Flag points might be delayed as the Hasbro summer interns count all those little clips of cardboard before sending out the figures. Just a thought.

And I still need to send mine off.

Nah, I sent some flag points in with my order, but a lot of them were from vehicles, so the numbers were a bit larger.

I don't think Hasbro has interns to do this work, it may be too hard to do. Now, standard answers to Q&A's, that they can do.

Mine were all stickers. I dunno..I guess they will be here eventually

Mine was 1 sticker form with 3 figures worth of battle points, and they all came on the same day....

I got to thinking about why the descrepancy in time about these getting mailed out, and it got me wondering if there was a marketing reason things are taking longer for some of you.

They get these forms with our names and addresses on it. Once they mail out the Docs I don't think they are just tossing that information. Chances are very good that they are storing that in some customer database. Someone somwhere is probably comparing that customer information with that gained from the Toy Shop online store and registrations for Hasbro sponsored sites like gijoe.com.

Think about it. There doesn't seem to be a rhyme or reason about when forms and payment were sent or what part of the country you live in. If you're on file already though, you might get yours quicker then someone who isn't. Just a theory. But just out of curosity how many of you who have already gotten your figure(s) have done one or all of the following:
1) Bought anything from Hasbro Toy Shop
2) Sent away for any other recent redemption figure (ex: unmasked Storm Shadow)
3) Registered at any of the Hasbro's product websites (ex: gijoe.com)
4) Been a member of the GI Joe Club

Hmm. Pluv may be onto something. I've done 3/4 of those things, and was relatively slow getting my stuff in, but got all of my Docs yesterday, all shipped individually (silly Hasbro).

I hit all of the above and I'm still waiting, though my forms weren't sent until 4/27 and my check was cashed at the end of last week.

I want to send away for one with some goofy name, something Bart Simpson would make up, and then see how much junk mail I get for that name.

I've done three out of four of those. My check was cashed three weeks ago today. And no Docs.

The wait from the time the check is cashed to the arrival of the figures is common though. It looks like that part of the process takes about 3-4 weeks no matter what.

I meet all of the criteria, sent my forms in that same week, didn't pay attention to when my check was cashed, live a state over from you, and had mine earlier this week. There truly is no rhyme or reason to it.
