Saw these at an Orlando TRU yesterday. Didn't pick any up, though I was tempted to get Insecticon and Breacher (1st time seeing them).

Hasbro needs to be prosecuted for their distribution process. I would not be shocked if half the black market racketeers were funded and supplied by hasbro. most of the towns in the country never see anything past a first wave of a toy line released. its assanine.

Neither have I, which is really annoying because Scouts have been needing a restock everywhere I go.

On the other hand, the wave 1 Scouts around here seem to be barely moving. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-screamer.gif)

Hoo boy.

Your first mistake was assuming Hasbro is responsible for distribution. *adjusts glasses* Ahem:

QUOTE("TFwiki page on Misconceptions and urban legends about Transformers")
Hasbro actually has almost nothing to do with distribution (when Product A arrives in Store B) beyond making sure the manufactured product leaves the factories and shipyards of China at the desired time. Once the items arrive on US shores, they are almost immediately sent from the ships to the distribution centers for the retail chains that ordered them. From there, it's more truck rides to various regional warehouses, which is all controlled by the retailers, not Hasbro. After that, the schedule for taking product from those warehouses and putting it on shelves is dictated by each chain's inventory system.

It's conceivable that Hasbro could take more control of the situation, but that would require chains like Wal-Mart to release the vise-like death grip they have on manufacturers' nuts that lets them dictate how the system works—and they're sooooooo not doing that.

Your second mistake: ... What the hug?

QUOTE(DarkHawkke @ Oct 10 2010, 05:37 PM) *

Your third mistake: assuming every town, everywhere in the US or Canada or Australia or Germany or the UK or what have you has the exact same distribution as yours does.

it's assanine.

Your final mistake; it's spelt asinine. Good effort, though!

I can't believe I still haven't seen Wave 2 Scouts. But they'll come eventually. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-hotrod.gif)

I find it very endearing (sp?) that they're calling him Sunspot. As it wittle Sunstorm, cus he's wittle. Not quite a storm, but more of a spot. I melt. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-fire.gif)

Why?
Because it's racist.
