At least that is what I read about the joker yesterday. And the high numbers are also from people logging in with several accounts or couldn't buy it because of not being into RSVP.  So it doesn't mean you are waiting for all 1357 before you. Some think the numbers are kinda random too.

That's also very good to know.

It's been mentioned that it's not a good idea to refresh while you are in queue, as it could send you to the back of said queue. But will the site log you out in the meantime if you don't refresh? Seems a conundrum...

I would just make sure your screen doesn’t time out. I set my screen-saver to not turn on before 3 hours as it sits idle.

Normally a session is valid for an entire website and commonly ends when you're idle for 30 minutes. So as long as you clicking around the site your session should be safe.

Good luck everyone! I'm rooting for you all!

Is that right on the home page? I'm on the "What's New" page for it, and don't see that at all.

If you RSVP'd, they are holding a place for you in the queue. I don't know how exactly it becomes available. You can put in your email to be notified. Unless you RSVP'd a long time ago, chances are slim. I thought to check it out just out of curiosity and RSVP'd just yesterday -- so now I'm told there are 3438 users ahead of me.

I also notice this new text:

Good morning! We have not officially started our pre-order yet for the Anakin figure. The pre-order will begin at approximately 9:15am PT.
Please note, regardless of when you joined the queue, once the pre-order launches, everyone will be randomly assigned their place in line, ensuring fairness and impartiality. My the force be with you, always!

i ended up clicking the link in my email for curiosity, 7393 ahead of me so it's random compared to when you rsvp i think. (i rsvp'd like weeks ago when it went up). That's a good number , i think there are 3000 anakins from rumors

Huh, interesting. So the number we see is already random, not something yet to be randomized at 9:15. The numbers it shows me actually change, going down (slightly) -- from 3438 to 3410 by now; it also tells me that my estimated wait time is "more than an hour."

Well, Sky, I don't know if it will work out, but you seem to have the lowest number among those of us who are reporting, which is only appropriate considering how much you want this. My fingers are crossed for you. Hang in there. I suppose it means that when your turn comes, if there is still stock, you'll be offered an opportunity to buy it.

If I were you (Sky or anyone else), I'd leave the page with the countdown open (it updates) and maybe open in a separate tab or window, so you could do other stuff while you wait.

Checking out or giving up and moving on. I don't know. My number is down to 3174, and my estimated wait time is down to 56 minutes. LOL
It knows our IP addresses so it doesn't matter which way you try to attack it.
In a way, I'm doing reconnaissance for another set hopefully coming up in the future, though I doubt it would be nearly as much in demand.

Mark, did you RSVP twice, separately, etc? Or did you forget to click on reload?

I’m using two different devices (an iPad and an iMac). My iPad seems to have a better chance. I hope sky reports if she gets one…
