Release the Robots! *SOLD OUT*
What a crazy rush! Unfortunately we are now super extra sold out of our online stock. We had hoped to offer more this evening, but a software issue caused some over-sales.
If you missed out today, check back here in a week or two for a list of stores that will have some! If you miss those, there should be more available in a few months when our second shipment comes in! FEAR NOT, Androids shall be yours!
Andrew are you going to sale this over on deadzebra.com again this next wave.
I just put a deposit down for a case at my local urban toy dealer, they told me that they’re expecting to have them by the end of this month when they return from some conferences they’re going to (it’s a pretty small shop, so they’re closing for a two week break during). Here’s for hoping I get my case then!
So does anyone have an idea when the next wave of Androids will hit retail stores and Mr Bell will you also restock them here?
Anybody want to trade an APK? Lol.
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Taken w/ my Droid (Of course)
Despite today being a mail holiday, my four pack arrived in the ATL!
I received a regular, a creature, a darknet and a worker!
I wish I had bought more!
Even received a couple of nice stickers.
Got my case on saturday and agree it was like christmas opening all the blind boxes. Even my girl who has harrassed me about being a complete dork for buying these got in on the excitement and will be putting some on her desk at work. I am now surrounded by an army androids from 9-5. What more can you ask for?

LoL $44 for a single case on eBay :D
Where can I find them on eBay ??
Got mine!!!! I got a Copper bot, albino, creature, and a rare one that has a 2 tone with an 01 on the back side (really diggin’ the mystery droid). I really wanted a worker droid, but the ones I got are great. Can’t wait until more are available online here so i can get another 4 pack. I’m hooked on these blind boxes. I was all excited when I was opening them.
Well i got my 2 case ordered and I to think they are in MA. EBay…. so be it. They can do what they want and if people are going to pay that so be it. Right now my wife sold Series 2 and 3 of our Dunnys and a bunch of others with a few 8″ Dunnys just to make room for these guys. I wish you all luck in getting them RETAIL. They will be there soon. Just check out TWITTER. I will post the stores you will be able to buy them from. Help the retailers. I promise none of them are Millionaires and they all appreciate your purchases.
got Standard, Darknet, Albino, and Reactor!
Aaaand, they are now on ebay
I just got mine! Out of my 4 I got s Standard Android, a Creature, an Octopoid and a chase figure! If anyone is interested in trading a Worker or a Copperbot for the Creature or the Octopoid let me know. The chase figure I received is really awesome looking!
@Robert – Andrew replied to someone on Twitter about one of the chases, but I haven’t seen a picture of it yet.
Don’t read if you want to be surprised opening your boxes!

Anyone get theirs yet? I’m so excited to know what the mystery ones are!
@Robert: I payed via Google checkout and yeah I got shipping notification.. right now its coming from Springfield, MA and its going to be a very long haul to Phx w/ SnowZilla back east and president’s day on monday :/
I Luckily scored a case of these. Will post pics of course. Curious what the secret one will be? If its not a blue one. I will take one and paint it blue in honor of ‘him’
@Robert: I am in Arizona(Phx) and yeah im curious if they will be avail @Zia Records

I was just browsing on eBay & found one on there for $45… That’s crazy! I can’t wait until you guys in more stock so I can order one. I’m not getting ripped off by greedy people.
We needed some more large boxes for cases, which got held up due to SNOWPOCALYPSE 2010! Hope to have most of them out by tomorrow and the rest early next week (Monday is a Federal Holiday)
I got a four pack and a case. I am such a sucker for Blind Box items. How soon will these ship? Can’t wait to find out which ones I got!
I am with Alan, thanks for the heads up (Dyzplastic). It will be a rough wait but it’s better than being ripped off on eBay. I can’t wait to get a 4 pk :)

@dyzplastic Will try to be patient, but waiting a couple of months is going to be rough. Thanks for the heads up though :)
WOW, if you look on ebay right now, ONE BLIND BOX is up for bids starting at $45…
wow, very cool… at least I managed to get one…hurrah!
@sjors but the misses got a case!
Kelvin, I ordered early this morning and didn’t get a shipment confirmation but was charged so don’t worry too much yet. Good luck though!

Hey guys, if you are patient these will be easier to come by in a couple of months when our next shipment arrives. Don’t go scurrying off to eBay to get ripped off! :)
I can’t wait to see my little android friends. I must of got lucky and ordered at the right time. Thanks for making this happen. I hope everyone that wants these will be able to purchase in the near future.
I couldn’t sleep for some reason last night & I was up until 5am. I didn’t see anything posted yet so I finally feel asleep… I got up around 10:30am & everything was already sold out. I was very disappointed like most people here. I was waiting all week to buy 1-3 of these… I live in CT so I hope some store over here carriers them but I doubt it.
Anyone on here from Arizona, Zia records will most likely have these. They sell tons of these types of figures in all sorts of variety there. Still, I do have to say, it was half assed bullshit for them to “randomly” sell them like they did. Kind of felt like a lot of people were cheated on an even chance to get a case.
Hmmmm, I’m worried that I’m going to be one of those people that has to wait a while because I still haven’t gotten a shipping confirmation and I bought them during the second round today :(
Everyone knew it was going to be a limited release. As for the time, 9AM Eastern had to be pretty obvious. I was surprised they sold so fast but still it was not like trying to buy concert tickets on Ticketmaster.
I paid with PayPal for my 4-pack and got a shipping notification email.
WTF? What was the point for this half-assed release? So ebayers can sell them for a premium?
So bummed… looking forward to these so much :(
SAD!!! It was the middle of the night over here on the other side of the world :(
Candice> If you are in Phoenix, a local shop called Red Hot Robot will most likely be carrying them once the distributer ships them. Call the shop to confirm.
Hope there will be more available that will not sell out in less than a day.
Did anyone who payed with PayPal get shipping notifications?
My 4 shipped out today!!!
Anyone know if these ship out today? So excited!!!
Ho hum, my android plans for world domination will have to wait a little longer.
I managed to get a case, thankfully I missed them on the first round, but got them the second go around.
BUMMER! I so had my heart set on a case.
doh.. I wasn’t so fast. These cool Androids are not going to Russia today((
I would have preferred a set release time to a random one so that everyone could be on equal footing. Still I thank you for coming with such a nice product.
Fuck you! didn’t make enough!
Well, that went well.
SUPER WEAK! No one in my area distributes your brand. Why not sell online later as well?
I order (2) 4 pack around 9:35am EST. You can pay via Paypal or Google. I’d recommended it so you can check out faster and you don’t have to enter any info so you have a better chance of getting them. Went through Google check out with a breeze.
It is piorty mail ($5.50). Pretty excited to see what I’ll get. Hope I get them!
Well, it’s officially a wrap… I guess I’ll check to see teh list of stores that will be selling these. Hopefully, I’ll luck up with a Chicago store since I’ll be visiting home in 2 weeks. Crossing my fingers!
A lottery instead of a race would have been nice… some of us are plagued with slow internet connections so our orders don’t go through fast enough! Maybe do a batch you have to purchase using your android enabled device :) Thanks for making a cool product, hope I get a couple.
Man, I ordered a 4 pack @ 8:23AM CST this morning and went through Google Checkout. I was going to order a few more now but looks like they’re gone already (at least for now). One question, I got a confirmation email from google checkout and they charged my account but I didn’t get any type of order confirmation form dyzplastic. Does dyzplastic send out order confirmations or is it just from google? I just want to make sure I’m gonna get my little android guys. I already made some room in my office for them.
he said he was going to have to do some refunds in the near future on twitter. twitter.com/deadzebra I’m guessing there will be more available at some point.
If they already oversold they might not have any additional stock, unless they are not going to honor previous orders.
Paypal is a disaster. I have a Google confirmation, let’s see if it holds.
Sorry, but it didn’t take 30 seconds, I had this on auto-refresh and it showed me -24 when I went to checkout.
Are you going to add more today ???
Looks like he might have over sold according to twitter… uh oh.
I bought my box. 16 androids are coming in France !
Do we get confirmation from Dead Zebra if we use google checkout?
@Calbearsfan
But… they are available right now, like no waiting… it takes about 30 seconds…
But to each their own I guess.
That was really quick. I refreshed and tried to order a four pack and I missed it by one person! Sorry, couldn’t email anyone fast enough, LOL.
Not worth my time anymore, good luck to the rest of u
I just made my order with Google Checkout! Do we get a confirmation from Dead Zebra whether or not it got in fast enough? I got a Google Checkout order confirmation, but just want to make sure it won’t be cancelled and refunded.
just got 6.
Sold out again ????
Just grabbed two cases, in case anyone’s interested – 310.bryan@gmail.com
They’re up
http://android-shop.deadzebra.com/
@Candace could you add me to your list ? Im very interested :)
klianmail@gmail.com
Where do I buy them from when they are avalable?
This comment has been removed by the author.
@Long – Sure, I added you to my distrib. list.
@Candace can you email me if you spot them as well? tangwinn123@hotmail.com or long.nguyen11288@gmail.com
@Arnaud – What is your email? If I spot them when they’re back up… I will e-mail you.
I think these will fly like hotcakes once the new stock is up….
@Joel @candace I live in france and since this morning I’m checking…
Please, please, please, for now I’ve only my phone and my 3G connection to check, so is it possible to send me an email to tell me that a new order is possible ?
Thanks a lot by advance
@Cameron – I forgot to say… let me know if you get one. I may have an idea if one of us doesn’t luck out. Here’s my secondary email candace.smith84@gmail.com, give me a shout when you get a chance.
@Arnaud – Sales are currently closed. Keep checking the site throughout the day. It will be open again once they’ve recovered from the this first batch of sales. :-)
That’s because they are sold out currently. Check back later and there may be some.
I’m snowed in, I’ll be checking on my laptop and Droid all day. Also waiting on the Android 2.1 update for my Droid!
I can’t buy anything !! I’ve still an error about the notice but impossible for me to see product or add them in a potential basket ! Help me
@Cameron – Yea, I’ll be at work, but between my laptop and N1… I will be checking every chance I get.
When did these go up? Curious as to when they will put up the next batch.
Well, it was a picture of a single box with one green Android figurine to the side and another picture of the Android collectibles 16 pack box. There were titles underneath each image pertaining to Individual (1-, 2-, or 4-pack) or Box purchasing… Click the title and it would take you to adding it to your cart, checkout.. etc.
Exactly the same page as we see now, but just add my description to the bottom once you scrolled down a little.
When they are available it will list 2 options at the bottom, buy a single android, or buy a case. It looked like once they sell out it removed the option from the bottom of the screen. Cost for a box was $112.00 + $12 USPS shipping. Individuals were $7.25 each, available in 1, 2 or 4 packs. Didn’t get to see what the shipping was for the smaller packs.
Ordered 1 case, now I can’t wait to get them shipped!
What will the screen look like when stock is available, I’m just seeing the pink banner right now.
I got the same thing Candace. It is because too many people added to their cart before the Temporary Unavailable notice went active. Say 200 cases were put available. If 208 people added to their cart, it would show Reduce Order to -8, because 8 too many had been ordered. I could definitely use notification if it goes up. I will be in class all day. Probably have my laptop out the whole time to check though.
Thanks Candace!
I actually got in to be able to add a four pack to my cart, but when I went to checkout it stopped me and gave to options – Reduce my order to -11 or remove from cart… I don’t know that that was about.
@Calsbearsfan – $112.00… $4.00 Savings, lol
How much does a case cost?
I got my box right around 9:15am EST. But they did say they would be posted randomly all day, so who knows if that will really help. Good luck to everyone!
UK shipping is a little too pricey for me. Any word on when UK/European shops will get this?
Does anyone know what time this came up today?
@Cameron… we are in the same boat (I’m in AZ as well)! Maybe we should notify each other if one of us sees it first. I plan on checking this site alllll day until I get my hands on at least ONE, lol.
Man. I woke up at 7:00AM to check (in AZ). Nothing there. Get up at 7:30AM and they are gone. I want these so bad!
Holy crap, I actually got a box. Soon the Android invasion will begin! At my desk at least :)
Yea… that was fast! In AZ… hoping I can get in on the next batch…
Damn that went fast! I’ve been refreshing for hours and still missed em…
