There is at least one item in each set that I want, so I’ll be getting everything, and then selling or trading what I don’t want. Part of the distribution process has simply been deferred onto us. This multi-pack configuration must be what TRU deems best for its own interest. And hell, we’re getting $7 figures again, thanks in part to these packs! So it should be a win-win, for TRU and us, so long as we're willing to put in a little elbow grease in the distribution on the secondary market. It’s a small line, but appears to have something for everyone, some new and old gems. Let’s help give TRU a notable success here, and hell, maybe bring Target back into the fold next year, and maybe get a few packs from Amazon or BBTS.

I'll buy stuff if I see it and can. But the only must-have for me is Leatherneck.

Dolts! Quit stop saying it is going to be rare and your going to buy everything, you are going to create false demand and the scalpers are going to snatch everything up. I swear this site is a Joe collectors worst enemy when it comes to stuff like this.

This line will surely sell itself. But like most of you guys are speculating, what they actually produce we'll have to wait and see. Hopefully they can tone down the 2 left feet/right hands/missing paint apps that we dealt with high volumes w/Retaliation. Oh, and fingers crossed on Concept Gung Ho.

I will buy what I want..I'm not going to buy things I don't want to help Hasbro......Hasbro is a major corporation--if they need my help running a line they are seriously messed up.
my advice for Hasbro....make stuff we want at a competitive price, and we will buy it.....except for the people that wait for Ross/Marshall's/TJ Maxx/Tuesday morning.

Didn't they already mention at Toy Fair that "what's been shown is all we're getting"? Then again, maybe that's just for 2014, and we could see additional waves in 2015? Or, maybe "that's all we're getting" from TRU, and there could be something from Amazon or someone else? Not sure how specific or broad that "all we're getting" statement or announcement was, or who exactly made it. Maybe another 'Tanker more in-the-know could clarify.

I'm sure ill buy enough to do my part… I'll buy what I want/see at TRU and will not be waiting for discount stores.
I don't want to artificially buy what I don't want/need though because Hasbro really needs to get better at making what is in demand and not wasting spots on shit that won't sell. I am buying for my own collection and a collection for my two sons to play with so I will def buy a lot of this shit.

I am going to try to get a set of everything. Being back in school will make it a bit difficult but gonna try.
Has anyone found any of it yet or does it come out in the fall? |
