Or maybe it's the wrong costume?

Nah, they wouldn't wanna pay the Monster Squad licensing fee.

If interested, Walmart stores have stocked their shelves with Horror items from Neca, Trick or Treat Studios, Fright Rags, etc.

They have the Ben Cooper Kid figures of Witch, and Dracula.
Hope they get the other monsters in soon, as these two sold well, as there was only one of each available when I came upon them.

NY/ Long island wal marts suck so bad at stocking anything

The Collegeville Monster Squad( not Ben Cooper) costume is definitely wrong. That costume was released as two different costumes. One being a poncho.
    "They come from the bowels of hell; a transformed race of walking dead. Zombies, guided by a master plan for complete domination of the Earth."

I wrote to ToyWiz inquiring why it's taking so long to get my order filled on these and they replied they still haven't received them from the distributor, and it may be the end of July before they get them. eBay scalpers have been selling these things for well over a month. The crap collectors have to put up with these days.  ::)

Those with orders for Wave 1 with Toywiz, keep an eye on your email, I just got a cancellation notice, and an offer to get Wave 2 for the same price.  Definite bummer, as I totally wanted Wave 1, but if I'm being honest will probably get Wave 2 anyway.  With Neca doing their own issues of the BK Loot Crate monsters, I'm hopeful there will be a reprinting of these soon.  I think they underestimated the popularity of these. Now I'm on the Wait List with other sites, should they ever come in.

Stay sick. Turn blue. Drop dead.

I was really afraid of this happening as I watched Toywiz "dynamically" adjust their pricing upward, seemingly order by order. Why would anyone trust them with wave 2 or, honestly, anything at all?

For your sake, I hope they fulfill, but I wouldn't bet on it. They seem unscrupulous to me.

I got the Toywiz email too. I've been here before with BBTS and the TOTS Candy Pails. I cancelled the order with the wizpr*cks and now they're on the sh*tlist of businesses I'll never deal with again. They can take wave 2 and spin on it. Preorders just make me a little sick at this point. You either give these con artists your payment info or pay upfront with Paypal and they get an interest-free loan. I'm done with it. I'll pass on the Ben Cooper Kids unless I get lucky and find them for $20 each. Found the Witch at Walmart and otherwise I'll be saving some money.

If they don't, I will let them know that it was my last order from them.  $85 to $250 on eBay. (For 1 Creature!)

The way to hurt them is to get the word out about their unscrupulous practices. That's why I'm posting what happened to me on here. Make them pay for violating people's trust by costing them business. A preorder is a contract of trust and violating that to make a few extra bucks scalping is no small thing. Toywiz and Big Bad Toy Store stink of it.

Got my notice that I won't be getting the 5 toy "Wave 1", which I did not order. No responce to my email asking about my order for the BC Creature. Is it a good thing that they haven't refunded the $26.78 that they took out in Jan,? Has anybody gotten a refund for their canceled purchase?

I received my PayPal refund earlier today. I had to request cancelation of the order to get the refund even though the purpose of the email was to inform me they wouldn't be filling my order for Wave 1. They're pushing a replacement preorder for Wave 2 in place of the original order. I don't deal with liars and con artists, especially ones who jerk you around for months, so I cancelled immediately. Those figures aren't worth more than $20 each to me anyway.
