Glad to see v5 is back in business!

And just in time for worlds too. Great timing!

But all in all, I think it could have used an extra year of cooking :stuck_out_tongue:

This makes me so happy. I was really worrying about not being able to have v5 for next season.

I believe vex has gathered a slight stockpile to prepare for the wave on Tuesday to prevent the same thing happening that happened after worlds last year(running out immediately). I ordered 8 motors on Monday and got them yesterday(with expedited shipping).

Has anyone been able to place an order? The site says the bundles are still out of stock, and the support line keeps hanging up on me.

I just tried and it said they were out of stock too.

I wish they would have specified a time on the e-mail. It would suck for them to run out of stock before I could purchase again.

Texas time wait an hour or two…

Dont panic… seriously.

Maybe by April 16 they meant April 16 2020. Jk just give them a moment

The individual products are back in stock now but the bundle pages have been completely removed from the site as of this moment.

Progress. That means we don’t need to riot.

Does this mean they are going for less than 599 per classroom starter kit?
