The head of .Com should oversee this, but I expect he is busier shipping toilet paper around to be bothered by this. Hasbro should make a fuss though. Advocating for their customers is a good idea no?
My understanding from some rumors and other stories is that there was a bit of a fuss made about how Walmart.com handled some Star Wars and Ghostbusters preorders and that lead to the whole creation of that collectible subsite that we all used to order the Retro figures day one. It doesn't seem to have helped much.
Weirdly, Target did the same thing shortly after Cobra Island launched, but their collectible subpage is even less developed.
I don't understand why preordering is such a hard concept, but whatever. I'm only sort of collecting Retro, Siege/Earthrise/Kingdom Transformers and Black Series. My main interests now are Classified and Masterpiece TFers and Walmart isn't involved in any of that (although, sadly, Target is).
