I love Super 7 because they made a lot of figures for the MOTU line to which I own almost all the releases and now is making Thundercats among other lines... They are really making a difference in many of the gaps we the collectors had...

I'm glad some people are benefiting from them. I'm just glad I will never have to deal with them and won't ever have to see Brian's smug contempt for collectors and customers again. But this isn't the thread for Super7. It's for complaining about Target.

I am totally in the middle here, I would rather pre-order and actually receive the item than hunt but I would feel better if it was no more than six months of a due date. I know this can be short when dealing with toy production. I understand why most are a year out. However, especially with army building figures, six months is reasonable in my head, LOL.

Hasbro doesn’t need to go full Super7 with the classified line. Having most of the figures at every retailer works just fine. Whether you preorder from pulse, bbts, ee, etc, or would prefer
to hunt in store, it works just fine. It’s just the Target CI sub-line that makes collecting classified painful. And I would be fine having an exclusive CI line if it only contained alt decos for characters (like the CI roadblock). But putting absolutely A-List characters in there like Beachhead, Baroness, and Firefly is ridiculous. |

But putting absolutely A-List characters in there like Beachhead, Baroness, and Firefly is ridiculous. Of course not all exclusives are guaranteed to be like that — arctic Storm Shadow seems less obvious a choice for a second version later, for example. But regarding the A list characters you mention, a mainline recolor of Baroness, a Beach Head maybe in darker green with camo pants, and a Firefly (maybe without the vest and drone) are overwhelmingly likely in the not so distant future (....although there’s no way to rule out, say, the possibility that we might see a Tiger Force or Python Patril repaint first, if Hasbro is feeling frisky). Nothing’s guaranteed until product is announced and starts shipping, but that’s where the smart money is. As for the idea of made-to-order figures, I don’t think anyone is suggesting it as an approach to doing figures in the main line, because those are already available in quantity.

We probably will get another Beach Head and Baroness, but I don't know that it's as guaranteed in the near future as some people think. The pink hair Baroness might be like Regal CC: an early look that was changed as a result of feedback. Regal CC was definitely an unplanned release (it was a made-to-order preorder). Pink hair Baroness might not be so lucky. I think Target is getting the "real" versions of their releases. The Trooper, Baroness, Beach Head, the Viper, and Firefly all look like their normal selves. Only Roadblock seems a repaint/variant. That's what makes the Target exclusives so infuriating. But it isn't out of line with how Hasbro is handling exclusives for other lines. Bumblebee, for example, is a Walmart exclusive in his Earthrise form (along with Elita One). The rules for exclusives have changed . . . for the worse.
