nolanfan34 Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 Just checked again, mine has now also gone from "customer service" to "In Process". Quote
Ed Mack Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 You have to be patient. Many are backordered, but will eventually ship. I do not think LEGO is TRU. On another note...I guess the notion that LEGO was using this to weed out resellers was a falsehood. Many resellers have had the B-Wings shipped. Quote
emes Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 On another note...I guess the notion that LEGO was using this to weed out resellers was a falsehood. Many resellers have had the B-Wings shipped. I still don't understand in that conspiracy theory what does LEGO do once they weed out the resellers? Quote
Mindblow21 Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 I also placed my order soon after midnight EST on 5/4, my order still has not shipped either. Order says it is processing, at least it does not say back ordered though. I have faith that Lego will ship my order soon. Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 I still don't understand in that conspiracy theory what does LEGO do once they weed out the resellers? S@H asked them nicely to please stop ordering for resale and then banned their behinds from ordering at S@H Quote
Ed Mack Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 I still don't understand in that conspiracy theory what does LEGO do once they weed out the resellers?There was a letter that LEGO issued to some customers a while back that warned them of excessive buying of the same set. I never really understood it in this case, or any situation for that matter. They let people buy FIVE. So sell them five if they want. I would imagine any company would embrace the sales. LEGO gets their price for the sets, why would they worry about what happens next? I think much of the paranoia is derived from jealous and uninformed LEGO fans who want to disrupt or denigrate LEGO investing. With these B-Wings starting to get shipped, the paranoia talk will subside. Quote
Anakinisvader Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 4 of my 5 have partial shipments. One is still in process. They are shipping the Han and poster and the B-Wing has been backordered. I trust LEGO way more than TRU so all is good. Quote
hollywdbri Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 Looks like the more you ordered, the faster they ship. :P Quote
jaisonline Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 Lego now has the $199 priced B-Wing sold out (ship date was May 26) . How could these have sold out for $199? Amazon, still have this set at $175.56. Quote
exciter1 Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 Looks like the more you ordered, the faster they ship. Yep, I had two separate orders of 2 each and I received backorder emails for both. One order was placed at like 12:02 AM on the 4th. Quote
spener90 Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 First B-Wing shipped last night. It will arrive tomorrow apparently, a day ahead of the 4 Hans who shipped the night before. All by Fedex, so they have some interesting predictions. Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 s@h always does two day fed ex shipping....on all my orders at least. Quote
steakyboy Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 My 2 B Wings got moved to backorder and i just received the out of stock email notification. Glad i picked up one at the store the next morning or i would be miffed. Should i hold and wait for order or just bail and spend the money on LOTR eol or MF eol? I have 1 stocked away. Don't plan on building it anyways, hear it is a bit fragile. Quote
c666187 Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 FedEx has taken possession of all 5 of my orders and they will be delivered tomorrow! :) Quote
steakyboy Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 Congrats to you guys receiving your wings. Customer service said mine are backordered for a ship date of May 24. But my Han and poster are on the way. Wait and see. Quote
Hebert89 Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 My B-wing is still backordered but they shipped the minifig and poster already. So jealous of the American prices! You guys get so many amazing deals while I'm stuck with paying AT LEAST 20% more on sales in Canada. Boo urns. Quote

jaisonline Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 B-Wings back in-stock for $199 "Out of stock, expected ship date 22 May 2013 " Quote
