stick around, hover in the site, add extras, and they are GONE out of your cart before you can check out. CASH GRAB if you get lucky. THAT IS IF you get lucky. Odds are against you. Just calling it like it is.

Got a silver PDD Destro the first year on a fluke. Next year had to have CC and paid ebay for black suit, but then got two from HTS and sold one. Year after that I freaked out 'cause I thought I missed 2-pack Destro, but then it sat on HTS for like a year. Then was at my kid's trip to Central Park zoo and missed the Zaranas. Paid ebay for two of each variant. Had the "USA" Slaughter in my cart for a split-second then it sold out. Forget about the Transformers crossover exclusives, I've never even been close. Bought Soundwave on ebay, though. Also ended up with an ebay red Jinx, but the unmasked one eluded me. I consider I've done well overall, if you consider "well" to be paying through the nose and still missing most of the offerings. |

I don't like the term Mutant. I prefer gifted youngster. At least that's what the professor always calls me.

Put it this way
My company put in a firewall block last year for Hasbrotoyshop.com after a set of lab computers were set by macro to refresh the site 2500 times a day.

I learned how to toggle windows on my smart phone like a boss because of Jinxgate. I'm ready now, if they plan on doing a carded figure.

I'm still traumatized over having the Starscream/CC and Zarana in my cart and losing out on both on that awful day in 2011. Bought Zarana at a convention for not a terrible price but still long for Starscream/CC :-(

Ah, Pink Tuesday 2011. I remember it well, a cart full of goodies, and I couldn't check out. That Hasbro site couldn't handle all of that traffic. Anyway, my therapist says I'm progressing nicely.

surprised nobody mentioned this one yet -
Already be signed in HTS and make sure beforehand that your mailing address and cc are on file. This at least gives a slight chance of getting what's in your cart, if you're not like the majority of us and it just freezes on each of the 5 checkout screens. I have only been lucky enough to get a silver destro and have never managed to WIN anything else from HTS. |

Plant yourself in your chair in front of your computer the Sunday Night that SDCC Ends. Go to HTS's site. Press F5 constantly and be prepared for a night/morning of endless waiting, disappointment, frustration and anger. If you're lucky between their site erroring 1500 times you might be able to check out with one of the items you want. However be prepared to have things in your cart sell out while you are trying to checkout.
