mr pecker;172764Yeah, me too. But with the poor decision to release over 2 dozen separate items the exact same day the trap goes on sale(unless they change that, too),I for one am not looking forward to the 17th as much I would if it was JUST “trap day.” Here's wishing all my fellow Ghostheads luck vs.that specter of all specters, the WSOD.
Perhaps I missed it, but is the trap not listed when it's only 10 days away? That seems kinda strange. Especially when they've already got their “closing the line sale” advertised.
I could be wrong, but I seem to remember the pke meter being listed on their products page for nearly a month before release…

This banner at the top of the Matty´s site has a huge “Ghost trap delaying” smelling:

As I'm in the UK it will take a few days to show any details on my CC acount, but it is showing something is processing at the moment, so looks like it is RAY.
I hope they have the Trap ready to go next week as all this silence usually means that there is a delay behind the scenes and they are not telling us anything like usual.
Look how much the GB 12" 2 pack has been delayed, I had a look today and I saw a comment tucked away by ToyGuru which said it has been delayed again as the proton streams do not attach properly and keep falling off so they are re-doing them. Just wish this sort of info was more widely publicised, getting info out of Matty is like pulling teeth.

why do you say that
instead of announcing with big banners the upcoming ghost trap, the only GB stuff for sale will be the Ray w/ slime blower… this too much silence about the trap worries me.

GB Halloween 20% off sale…Hot Wheels toys…interview w/trap design guy…NYCC news (hardly none of it GB-related)…
Who gives a smeg? How about this: announce the trap cost or tell us it'll be delayed!
Unbelievably shortsighted, this so-called marketing approach. Hmph.

I really think you guys are getting worked up over nothing, the absense of info doesn't neccesarily mean something bad's happened to the Trap. We're only four or so days away from the release, we've waited longer for less.

Kingpin;172821If memory serves, the PKE meter cost was up for a month.Announcing a price that can be met,some of us have to count every penny -and in some cases “rob Peter to pay Paul”- also known as creative bookkeeping. I am not as fortunate as some others with a bigger monthly budget..which makes an item as kewl as this trap even more of a prize to be had. That's all I'm saying.
