I'm sick and tired of finding these and ONLY these (along with the Hiss Tank) on Canadian shelves. What the hell is wrong with Hasbro Canada? Can they PLEASE at least get some VAMPs or something?
Only once have I seen something other than these, and that was one RAM/Flight Pod pack at a TRU. Never at Walmart or Zellers (the only two other places that carry them up here, if I'm not mistaken). What gives?

Happens down here in the States too, seems like they made a LOT more HISS'ses and Air Chariots and Armadillos than the other vehicles...either that, or they won't ship other vehicles 'til those are sold and off the shelves.

I feel your pain DPrime!
every store I go to in Toronto that carries Joes has nothing but Hiss's and the damn chariot/armadillos... its depressing seeing them cluttering the shelves and no other vehicles anywhere in sight. I always go in hoping.. perhaps today is the day they've reset and put out some Fangs, Vamps, or anything else.. but no.. sadly every time I am just as disappointed :(

Yeah, they really screwed us hosers. All we got are the HISS and the Armadillo pack. Needless to say, my buddies in the States and my favourite specialty toy store hook me up.

Hey, we're going through the same thing here in the States. Retailers can't even give these away. Why does Hasbro have to over do it when it comes to first Waves; comic packs, DVD packs, vehicles? They mass produce the hell out of these then when the cooler shit (DVD 5, SkyHawk, Resolute ComicPacks) comes out you can't find them.
Hey Hasbro if you are going to keep over produceing stuff like this keep them out of future Waves. I hate your revisions of old crap that won't sell with the newer stuff. ENOUGH already!!! |
