What is the number for Hasbro, the contact us link on the website is more like a FAQ sheet. I need to vent my frustration right now.

I called 1-800-224-4438 but they truly dont have a clue whats going-on. They just assist in helping orders and things. The first guy said maybe they didnt have the stock availiable so it was removed but that was a guess on his part. |

The girl I spoke too was as rude as she could be, she basically was like "you stayed up all night waiting on a stupid toy, and now you are calling me because you didn't get it?" Which I guess is actually the case, I questioned why it was removed, and she basically just read the product description to me then said they probably just did not have it in stock. I told her that to advertise an AFA graded item would mean that they had them, and sent them to AFA for grading, at some point during my explaination she hung up. I did not yell or cuss, I was even polite and basically because I'm diligent in trying to find the answer to questions she hung up on me. Great company, awesome business practices. I feel like a black and blue wife who keeps going back to an abusive husband.

I kind of wonder if they didn't get a schmidt load of hate mail over this and pull all of them. Just a thought, seeing as the category tags are gone, too.

They probably removed the pages because of all the refreshing. They never said the figures would be available on a specific day or at a specific time, and there is no reason to assume they will not be made available at some point in the near future. They were not exactly advertised, either. The pages were most likely created and uploaded early for testing purposes, in order to make sure there were no problems during ordering, which made it possible for someone to find them via the search feature. Customer service representatives do not maintain the web site, but even if they did, why should they give anyone advance notice? They will go on sale when they go on sale, and we will all get one or miss out, just like everyone else.

Half of their stock is unadvertised :p
As for why they pulled ALL of their AFA'd SDCC items, I'd say fan backlash. I just ran through 4 Joe sites, TFW2005 and Rebelscum. It was pretty unanimous that everyone hated this idea. It wouldn't surprise me if we don't see those come back online ever |

A vocal minority on message boards vs. the chance to make good money by selling a collectible to those who are interested? I think we'll seem them go on sale sooner than later. |
