Wow, so many delusional people here. I can't be surprised though considering all the grown men playing with toys. Retailers are completely innocent huh? Be careful there, wouldn't want you to suffocate with your head so far up their asses.

He didn't say "completely innocent", he said "it's not exactly [their mishandling] that kills the experience of collecting". Right there in the quote you quoted. Nobody's denying comorbidity or the possibility of contributing factors, they're saying that excessive elements and members of our own community are the primary causes of our woes. If you disagree with him, confront him on what he really said, not an imaginary version.
I mean, how many times do we chill folk get a curt dismissal from an employee because they've already had half a dozen fanatics harassing them that day? And just an FYI, when things are tense between people, a smiley or winky face at the end of a dickish comment doesn't make it come off as jokey and lighthearted, it just makes it look even more dickish. You need to relax.

My local Target said they were doing their reset today and they were! I showed up when they opened, I went to the electronics desk and they had my figures waiting for me. I was so stoked, they apologized for the street date screw up too. I never have this kind of good luck at Target, I still think I am dreaming. I was able to get a trooper and a Beach Head. I have been able to get two troopers now so I feel extremely lucky, but I hope they make a ton of this figure, I want more.

Hey Kilowatt were you at the Feedwire Target this morning? I was there at 745 am in line. I also got 1 Beachhead and 1 Cobra Trooper. The store manager I spoke with on the phone said last night they are Not allowed to hold figures for customers. Kudos to you for being able to pull that off and secure yourself a few figures. I was Very happy to be able to get 1 each. They did not have the Roadblock. |

If you have such contempt for Hasbro, Target, and the collecting community why are you even buying these figures in the first place and supporting their business? You say what you say, but at the end of the day you're still jumping though hoops, driving around to all the Targets, confronting the employees, and buying the figures like the rest of us. Seems to me your head is right up there with everyone else.

On Target.com Baroness shows as available for preorder, but it's the bug where it shows that but she can't be added to a cart.
It's the first time I've seen that bug for anyone other than the Trooper. Maybe it's a good sign they are loading inventory.
