Star Wars: The High Republic

Whoa, glad I ordered 30+ copies and all ratios (x 2) of this discounted, which feels like an eternity ago. Well to be fair it is a whole new year.

I preordered one of the C cover from the lcs. I like to hurt myself :japanese_goblin:

lol, impatiently waiting for TFAW to mark my pre-ordered copies of this book as “Processing”

I managed to snag one of every cover, including 1:10 and 1:25 from them.

You guys with the double-digit (copies) pre-foc orders though
 yall the real mvps. Salute.

I watched the whole 4 hours of Disney Investor day and during the Star Wars segment, I was literally dancing around with my dog. Well, to be fair, I also put the majority of my liquid assets in Disney stock in March : P. So I had a vested interest.

The only other one I went in this hard was 30 copies of Strange Academy #1.

Right! Later issues of HR may hit down the road not necessarily #1, all though thats a safe bet. This is truly moving into the unknown for the Star Wars universe. Probly a good decade of story telling in this era and then move back to present post skywalker saga for new story telling and characters
 Exciting

Wow thanks I totally didn’t think of that. Those eternals ratios are definitely going to be ignored by the vultures at my shop over the star wars hoopla

So, reading the Bleeding Cool 200k print run article, that includes #1 2nd print as well, and it is a bit vague on whether the 3rd print is in that total aslo.

Someone at Marvel must be in trouble with the low order numbers and is trying to save their job. :rofl:

Is anyone else having the problem where they aren’t processing your pre-order from TFAW for HR 1? Is there a reason why they aren’t sending me a single copy. Does TFAW just pretend to have a certain quantity of comics for preorder and arbitrarily stop orders at a certain number that they don’t even have???

Bleeding Cool just makes crap up for clicks. I wouldnt trust any number they throw out there. I imagine the 1st Print is around 100k, maybe a bit higher. I dont think its anywhere close to 200k.

If you read the 1st article, it said orders topped 100k. I wouldnt be surprised that post FOC orders pushed it to 200k, but a lot of those wont be fulfilled.

I pre-ordered it on FOC.

So do you think it was first come first serve with pre-order dates?

Id give them a day, if you ordered it before the FOC im sure they will ship it to you.

TFAW hasn’t processed this week yet.

According to my pre-orders, HR was pushed to January 12th. Does anyone else say the same thing?

I don’t. Hope they don’t do that cuz it will screw up my shipping costs as I imagine they will still ship out my package that was scheduled to go this week
 Even without the HR books.

I know some retailers diamond orders have been delayed this week though.

As for other concerns here, they just haven’t started processing this weeks orders yet. It’s not just the HR books so I wouldn’t sweat it - orders don’t always start processing before/on Wednesday.

My next shipment now also shows 1/12, whereas before it showed 1/6.

What’s your shipping frequency?

I can only imagine if they pushed out HR another week, they were plagued with damaged books.

Most weeks now it seems TFAW has been processing orders on Thursdays as well as they’ve been plagued with shipping delays as well.

TFAW does a good job fulfilling pre-FOC orders. The only time it likely won’t happen is if they get damages that aren’t replaced.
