Thanks for the Target tip -- ordered! What sucks is, NONE of the Targets near me carry this so I have to pay to have it shipped. Still, it ended up being about what BBTS probably would've charged... a year from now.

Target ships orders of $35 or more for free.  Can't you add a few items that you might buy soon, anyway?

They sell candy, chips, canned food, school/office supplies, etc.  No need to buy anything big.

Target online only has the b&w wolf man.  No color wolfie nor color mummy.

Got my 2nd BBTS notice.  SOP for them is to next charge my card, then when confirmed (usually either later that same day or the next day) they "ship" it (meaning they print the shipping label).  Usually the next day it is actually shipped.  So I expect to get it middle or later next week. 

Hopefully they'll get in the color Mummy soon.

Then what??  Hopefully they'll announce the Lugosi Dracula figure any time.  Of course will all the crap going on with shipping delays  and backups plus China closing areas due to covid, might not get any more Universal monsters until 2023.

Unless you buy two and get free shipping!

Didn't know about Target's free shipping option. That's why they call me... D'oh!

If I am close to free shipping on a Target order, I like to add a couple bags of Kettle Corn.  Gives me movie-watching snacks and provides extra padding for my toy, or whatever.

BBTS shipped my item.  Estimated delivery date is Saturday, tho I've found that sometimes their estimated date is a day off from when it actually arrives.  So I should have The Wolf Man figure by Monday at the latest. 

Now let's hope The Mummy will be available for shipment soon.

Got my wolf man, so now I've got them all in color, plus Raphael as Frank.  We'll see if I have the willpower to resist the B&W.....  Until then, waiting for those accessory sets!

My Wolf Man figure is sloooooooowly coming to my house.  It was shipped from BBTS on Thursday April 14 2022 with a delivery date of Saturday.  BUT apparently the shipping label barcode was "unreadable" and it tool them awhile to fix it (sat at the FedEx facility for several days).  But it was shipped from that location and is inching it's way towards me.  No estimated delivery date on the FedEx site, but I'm guessing maybe it will come on Wednesday. 

I think this figure and The Mummy (still a pre-order at BBTS) are a bit cursed for me.
