Well, it'd be like making bright purple Cobra Commanders instead of blue for every version they sell. Hasbro has to have some clue what they're doing but they seem to want to cut many corners these days.

Like I had mentioned before, the only way I got through was having 2 computers running with IE and Firefox on both loading, and my Ipad. I had 5 options going and would have loaded Chrome if I didn't finally get through on a Firefox load for 1 regular version Zarana. It took til just before that version sold out to get through. I was getting error messages all around on just about every page. An of course when the Skystriker sold out I had to go back and remove that, then the other Zarana sold out so I had to remove that. I think sold out items should ahve automatically dumped out of the cart.

But yeah it was a pain and I almost gave up. I learned the trick of hammering a page through all the times of trying to order from Mattel. 1 browser and 1 computer just does not work. I still don't know how scalpers get in so easy though and place multiple orders.



Now imagine this times exponentially more people trying to do the same thing accessing it through 5+ browsers at once. Collectors DDoS'd the site then griped b/c it didn't load.





I also would've done this except firefox and ie are all work lets me load on computer :shifty: :shifty:

Well that wasn't what I did right away, but it's what I ended up doing since everything went to crap. Also I got an email from HTS telling me they canceled one of my orders. I only placed 1 order but apparently it either doubled or another browser got through. Either way they said I was over the allowed amount of 1 per person. I just hope all those Ebayers that did it intentionally gets the same emails.

I still haven't gotten mine, and I ordered things that weren't that fast to sell out.
In fact one is still on the site, not sold out yet.

That's assuming they even keep all items at the same warehouse. I don't know what their business setup is like though.

My SDCC stuff is shipping from Industry, CA. Of course, this was difficult to determine since my Order Status gives a Tracking # but does NOT list whose shipping service they are using (it's FedEx BTW)

The whole site needs a redesign. The Order Status shows what items you ordered but not how much you paid, how you paid for it, etc.

Still says my order is pending... They canceled the order that their server doubled and I didn't even know about. I hope their screw up doesn't mess up me getting the order.

Well they canceled my 2nd :zarana: Zarana. I hope it goes to a collector & not a scalper.
On one hand I'm glad they are going through the orders with a comb. On the other they should have been prepared better. Perhaps have it so you could only order one.
Anyone order from BBTS or Brian's Toys have their orders canceled? I'm sure they were on HTS that day too.

I got a shipping notification. Though I was never charged for shipping and didn't use a code.

Yes that was a glitch because "too many" people were on ordering at the same time. I think it only affected SDCC exclusives.
Who wants to bet that if we were actually charged shipping they wouldn't be canceling doubles?
