Yeah, not much activity on the Ky sightings board. Anyone as disgruntled as I am? I've just now finally found the new comic packs. (@KMart, no less!)
It continues to be a depressing task, hunting 25th figures. If I wasn't also a collector of Transformers I would not be on the look-out at all.
The 25th collection has been consistently selling out for what, well over a year now? And wether it be Hasbro or the retail chains' call, not a damn hint of improved distribution or larger shelf space. I can only reasonably assume that there never will be and that it's by design.
I have been really pumped about the new vehicle releases but I have a feeling finding them is going to be even worse than hunting the figures, if the Target Exclusives were any indication.
I've still got my eyes open in stores but I have a feeling most of my Joe purchases going forward will be on-line. And after 25th is over, I'm not very inclined to support new animated series or movie toys. I even have a bad gut instinct that the almost perfect 3-3/4" 25th figure style will be ditched for something completely different for new movie and cartoon toys... Why? Because Hasbro seems to be 1/2 genius and 1/2 total moron.
If time proves otherwise I will gladly eat my words.
