We received word from Hasbro this morning that we can place our order for the new movie toy line figures as early as today. We hope to have stuff listed for Pre-Order soon on our website. The first thing we noticed was the wholesale prices have been increased. Ouch.
The catalog shows Bravo, Delta and Alpha vehicles along with figure cases of 12 per case. There is listings for some "10" Inch Battle-Kata Battlers" and "Dress/Playsets" and 2 Pack Ninja Showdown sets. Woo Hoo! There is no case assortment break downs as of yet, but we will update our site as soon as we get more information.

The prices are going up? No shocker there. Increases in wages, materials, shipping and bribes to Chinese govt officials are the excuses from Hasbro.

Do they not remember the part of the investor meeting where the higher price for the movie toys helped sink sales? Or that so much of the excess they produce, not unlike those $10 IM w/bike riders that have been re-released so many times, just don't sell? The marketing division's movie team (IM, Cap, Thor to a degree, RoC) really need to learn to cut back on the excess that sink the line's profits so quickly.

Awesome! It's a good sign they are having some vehicles, and it sounds like some of them are bigger vehicles as well. I can't wait to get a glimpse of these.
I am also curious about the price. We all remember that RoC toys didn't sell real well until they lowered the price. But maybe they've stepped up the quality somewhat. I know I'll probably be getting my smack from Kokomo toys, though!

They appear to be more in line with the wholesale cost of Marvel and Star Wars figures now. Traditionally the Joe line was always cheaper. You can see it reflected in the old standard Joe case price vs the Marvel Universe and Star Wars. Everyone at Hasbro is still on vacation so I don't have much information other than what has been posted. I'll post more as I get it, along with what will be in the cases.
