Hasbro ain't Apple, and doesn't make NEARLY as much money for their other retail partners as Apple does. Apple is able to do what it does because there is such a massive demand for their product that the retailers know that it's not really going to cut into their sales very much. Not really the case with Hasbro toys (particularly their action figure brands).
A small chain of "exclusive" stores also doesn't really do diddly-squat to increase product awareness either. Certainly a lot less than having their product on Wal-Mart's toy shelves, in any case. Apple's product awareness isn't really driven by the stores at all...they built their product awareness and THEN built the stores, which mostly exist in high-end shopping areas that cater to an elite clientele (or at least a clientele that tends to view themselves as elite). |

A GIJoe game with Skylanders like functionality. I have gone upstairs and played hours on that game when my son is asleep. And I always am on the lookout for cool ones he doesn't have. The Figures would come on a base like they do not but would be both removable and pose-able. That 3rd snakes you balked at buying before now comes with special attacks and kids will always want special stuff.
