It's coming. There are a lot of revision waves and figures that need to move from store shelves around certain places...

I'm thankful for the calm up until now.
We're about to be bombarded with joes--Waves 10 and 11, DVD packs, new Comic Packs and Vehicles as well. On top of that, tons of revision waves, then wave 12 before Christmas.
BRAIN OVERLOAD!

outraged? Wow. I wouldn't exactly consider a minor slowdown in the arrival of Joes a reason for outrage. Insane gas prices, perhaps. Taxpayers bailing out companies run into the ground by crazy rich, greedy CEOs, sure. A little perspective is in order here, dontchathink?

It does look like we will be inundated between now and the holidays. Olympics probably had something to do with the slowdown and it looks like they will make up for lost time. Hopefully we have all been saving up!

There are like 10 threads about this. Calm yourself. Focus. Find your inner peace, and the answer will come to you.

What would Storm Shadow do?


(But seriously, it's coming. Just chill out. Within a month you'll be so up to your neck in Croc Masters and Wraiths and Paravipers and Tiger Force Dukes you won't know what to do.)

it may not even be a minor slowdown. perhaps Hasbro is actually stockpiling the waves so when they release them they will be in abundant numbers so they are restocked faster instead of the slow trickling of product prior waves have been subjected to and collectors were outraged about.

Hasbro doesn't release enough, collectors are outraged. Hasbro possibly amps up production numbers to meet demand which slows down the release, members are outraged. I'd say the constant is the problem, and it is the collector behavior, not Hasbro.
