Wanted to get everyone's opinion on something. When the wave 5 vehicles were canceled/postponed there was a tremendous uproar on this forum. It seems all of us, myself included, were really looking forward to the Stinger, Arctic Hiss, and Flak Cannon. Did our outcry have anything to do with Hasbro's sudden decision to release it thsi spring?

I am firmly convinced that the stink the entire fandom (Not just Hiss Tank) raised about this wave being canceled is the reason Hasbro brought it back. I said as much in the first thread about them being back.

Nah i just think they postponed the release. Didn't think they would make those sets and just not release them. They'd lose money on the molds.

I agree. I think Hasbro intended to release them some time after the movie. (Xmas at the soonest) Then the fan forums throw a stink about their postponment. A lot of us don't seem to like the movie toys and i think Hasbro said "Hey, let's keep the hardcore fans happy."

Actually I made a phone call and pulled a few strings. You're welcome.

I feel Hasbro took the fan feedback into consideration, & will hopefully reconsider other items that may or may not be postponed.

Possibly a small affect, but likely only peripherally.

Yeah, likely they were postponed to do production issues. But they may have pushed to get them out to us still in the first quarter because we threw a stink... maybe.
