The second round of pre-orders for wave 3 from The Black Series The Empire Strikes Back 40th Anniversary line (this includes Darth Vader, Snowtrooper, Boba Fett, Luke Skywalker (Dagobah), and Chewbacca) are starting to get canceled. JTA reader Erik just informed us that his Dorkside Toys pre-order has been canceled and that BBTS will soon be following suit. If you have this on pre-order let us know in the comments if your pre-orders get canceled too. Entertainment Earth still has several from this wave still available for individual pre-order. Might be worth securing these as a backup just in case.
