They always did, which is how they timed them the way they did. Either just a longer embargo now, or they wait to give them the figures until a little bit later.

Yeah, its not hard to control in China.
So everything is reversed now. Before we would have to wait 6 weeks before getting our figures after release now they have to wait until we get ours.......even though the factory is right down the street 
Most blogger pics these days have become so jacked up with Photoshopped effects and light and tricks that they aren't even a good representation of the actual in-hand figures anymore. They've become comic strips and bubble gum cards.
They all try to top one another instead of giving a good recording of the figure like OMG used to do.

“Is there any point to going on waitlist with Timewalker Toys? Sideshow's waitlist was often a waste of time.“
FWIW, I wait listed with TW for Iron spider and it went through.

Very True.
They will order another case if they get enough waitlist I believe. Also they get cancellations due to not having NRD.
I would try it. I know a few people who have had success on these boards.
But I also had a success with Ssc on the Exclusive Marty.

Well, looks like Hela, Deadpool and Emperor might all arrive about the same time now.
Yes, I literally just got the email myself. Oct to Nov.
Oh well (that's for Deathstalker), gives a little breathing time. In the next two weeks its Fett, Vader and Royal Guard. That's enough for a month I'd say.

I only buy a handful of figures a year, and this year it's Tarkin/Vader, ROTJ Luke, ESB Boba, and the Emperor for me. I actually like the releases to be spread out a bit so I can spend more time per figure until a new one comes along and takes away some of that "newness factor" of the previous.
I also mod most of my figures, so multiple releases close to each other just means my WIP list keeps growing. I still haven't finished my ANH Vader that I got several months ago...
