I'm going the same route. I barely missed Xavier on Pulse. Still bummed about it.

The bright side is that Amazon has that wave listed for July instead of May, so it is possible that they are going to be able to deliver. I'm too impatient to wait until then though haha

Then a month later, they cancel my Prof X order I had with them since he went live and had to pay the extra to get him through GameStop. I definitely learned my lesson preordering with Amazon.

That's crazy. I feel like the exact opposite happens here in my area in the states. The comic figures never really show up or they disappear soon. I hardly ever see restocks on legends and never on DC multiverse. I can find about the entire first wave for Black Panther and all but Fury for Captain Marvel though.

I can see Skullbuster and Forge warming, but Blink may surprise us. I am going to preorder what I can for the simple fact that I have hardly seen any of the x-men legends at retail in my area and probably never will.
