Kept tellin' you guys that Okie eBay seller would make ya a deal if you bought multiples.
I got 5 from my case order of that wayve eons ago...
I dunno about the retaliation figures. The street date is still the 28th, its the retailers product at this point, they already ordered/bought it form Hasbro. This definetly kills waves 3-5 though so good by night viper and POC CG :(
I suspect retailers will dump what they have...it would be unprecedented in the past 5 years for them to buy back stock this late in the game. Pretty much kills Colton's figure too.
Hasbro has a lot of work to do to rectify this, one to keep retialers happy with the product they already bought and have in thier stock rooms, keeping some kind of joe presence for the rest of the year(if they pull this product totally there will be nothing to buy for Joes for 10 months (think about those reprocussions)...i still have no idea now what kinda of news they can give us at Joecon and SDCC now...will definelty be no new reveals at all which total sinks thier plans....Paramount thoroughly screwed hasbro and us big time...I dont think they even know how bad thi sis going to pan out yet...
On the bright side it may mean we get a better toy line (yeah right) with more movie accurate figures (yeah right again) next year...but thats a LONG LONG wait ....they'll have to pull a rabbit outta thier assess to get any 30th level stuff back out in the meantime...but after the purchasing for the movie line figures...will retail support such an endevour or just go joeless for the rest of the year? What about etailers like Kokomo and BBTS? this is far reaching and potentially devestating...I hate to say it...
