Yeah, it's basically two separate exclusives.

It seems like the base issue changes weekly now. I need a spreadsheet to keep track. I prefer the church base personally since I was going to display him with the Titans. I may cancel my Robin Ex now and get a regular edition instead.
I may do the same just out of principal. Both bases were promised at one point and I'm getting tired of the changing script on this item.

I just sent my email off to Tweeterhead requesting the cancel.

I asked to get my full refund as well since it has changed descriptions several times since I ordered it in September of 2018 and it will be 6 months late for delivery in a couple days since it was originally an October 2019 time frame.

I'm hoping Tweeterhead may instead chose to do right on this one and include both bases with the EX.

If that can be addressed on his Sunday FB-cast that would be good to know.

Well this was from the September 6, 2019 update:

He's Here!! Batman has arrived and we are starting to ship on Monday.

In the meantime, I wanted to show you guys the Robin EX base (not the add on for Batman and Robin...that will be shown next week).

This is the base you EX customers will be getting. It works so much better than the Reg base. I hope you agree and are excited about it. I made this change for you guys because it will be a much more striking piece. I don't intend on changing things up on you again, this was just a change that I should have made before I put Robin up for Pre-Order.

Thanks for understanding and have a great weekend!!!!

I'm pretty sure Chad did a video in which he said EX customers would get both bases.

I don't think we should be splitting hairs that it hasn't been completely confusing about what this item will come with or how it will look.

Well, this 2 base thing might be my fault. I made an assumption, posted it here or over on FB and I think somewhere along the lines it got mixed with official announcement. I looked through the post and I can't find where Chad stated 2 bases (Church and Gargoyle) would come with EX.

I mean EX is supposed to be something extra... If it is not it should be clarified and named as Version A and Version B instead. It beats the purpose of Exclusive imo. The EX situation with Robin has been a disaster. I don’t know how it will be for you guys, but I think this will be the final nail in the coffin for me to never order anything from TH direct again. I will support them through distributors.

Hardly your fault. This whole thing has been clear as mud.

I don't expect any apologies from the Tweeterhead apologists and sycophants who constantly excuse this absolute sh*tshow, but I feel the need to point out that an EX is no longer an EX if you don't include the regular part as well. It is now an ALTERNATE base.

I know I said I'd just go gently into that good night, but now that the money is back in my account this train wreck is just too good to miss.

Get that $$$ back. And I look forward to everyone else's salty replies.
