I think the cheaper price on Matty is what helped the All Stars sell out quickly, even though they've been available elsewhere. I only wanted Batman from that group, so I'll have to try Amazon I guess. Shop.Mattel.Com also had them for $14.99, and their shipping costs are way less. I even mentioned it last week (when I was comparing Mattycollector to Shop.Mattel); so I'm kinda surprided people decided to go with Matty.

Maybe Frosta didn't sell out so quickly because of the forearm/wrist issue. It wasn't really a deal-breaker for me so I'm glad to be getting her in my sub.

I couldn't get on for about 15 minutes and had the WSOD. Weird thing is I got in and then a survey thing popped up I declined to do the survey and I had to wait a few more minutes..LAME!
I finally got in was able to order the Guy Gardner JLU 3-pack (woo hoo), Poison Ivy, and finally was able to pick up a King Grayskull figure.

It sucked for me, i was on wsod for ever even though i got in fast. I have always wondered if the WSOD prefers windows over macs. As for the new 52 all stars, i'm not a fan and definitely would not buy unseen considering their paint apps/qc really suck. If i ever see them in stores, i will decide then, if not no loss. I'm trying to distance myself from mattel, its a difficult fight for sure but i'm so sick of their crap. But agree with all the comments, i am shocked they sold so fast considering all the online options that were and are available. I assume the price had something to do with it. Got what i needed though.

WSOD for about 20 minutes, the longest I've ever had to wait. Still, picked up Rattlor, Frosta, Cy-Chop, Battle Armor He-Man, and Trapjaw.
I'll be thrilled when my MOTUC sub starts in 2013 to avoid these delays.

Man, I really don't care for this crazy scalper rush in the first hour and then figures flooding Ebay for jacked up prices. It's just not fun. That Poison Ivy looked pretty cool, but I had already decided I was fine with the Alex Ross Ivy I already have.
So I just bought the JLU 3-pack, which has it's jacked up price already built in - no scalpers necessary!

After all of the discussion here, and even after reading reminders this morning, I forgot about the sale until about 1:30 Eastern. Since all I wanted was JLU Guy, no problem. Done in less than two minutes. I'm glad that's all I wanted though -- those "sold out" tags on everything startled me.

RrrrrRRrrrrRRRRrr!
I've tried multiple credit cards, multiple browsers, multiple computers, created a whole new account, and even called Digital River customer service (where the guy asked ME how he could log out the previous person he helped over the phone!?!?), all to no avail. "Payment Authorization Failed" every single time, and we're into the double digits by now.

I mainly wanted Red Robin from the site, and he was gone right away. I have been checking Amazon and shop.mattel, but he was always either out of stock, or in stock on Amazon only through their marketplace so it was like $30 plus shipping.
