Its outselling 25th Anniversary because there is much, much, much more of it. And as far as action figures are concerned, they consider those laptops, googles, walkie talkie, Snake Eyes Swords and power blaster rifle RoC gimmick toys to be "action figures". I am not concerned with that at all. The 3.75" action figures/ vehicles are not moving so yes I am right.
Just because retailers are buying new product like crazy that doesn't clearly indicate how well ALL of the merchandise is being bought buy costumers. That's why they have tons of backstock in the storage rooms that won't be pushed out to the aisles unless the other stuff sells. With the film being out in theatres for only three weeks the sales are accurate for the fact that retailers, not customers, are ordering stuff to be well stocked for their Fall toy aisle reorganization which makes more room for what they believe is a hot product. Will they show high sales of RoC merchandise in October? My guess is not likely.
