It's a matter of quantity. Yeah they sell out over there, but they are selling out at specialty shops and they don't even get a chance to get sold out at the big box retailers because they don't carry them. Despite efforts and some previous success, Joe is very much a domestic brand and not an overseas one.

Yeah, this also lets them test what happens when a product moves from "retail" to Pulse exclusively. While I don't think Hasbro wants to do that for its lines because the quantity of sales won't be the same, I do think it could be an option for more niche lines when their time at retail is done. If Walmart or Target decided to drop say Lightning Collection, moving a line that's heavy on reuse and has a sizeable fanbase to being Pulse exclusive could be a valid way of doing business.

Pulse might not be able to ship until Target beings to ship.

I'm convinced that's part of the deal for Pulse to carry the partner exclusives. They have never shipped first. And look at the time frame of the recent Walmart retros - Pulse had them loaded and ready to go as soon as Walmart started moving them.

Yeah Hasbro can't undercut their exclusive partner when it comes to these toys and that's why they are sometimes priced a bit higher and ship later. Frankly, it's impressive that Hasbro was able to work out carrying the products for all the retailers they partner with.

We're also doing all of this whining and bitching over Python Patrol and Tiger Force repaints. I'm sure half the people complaining consider them to be pointless repaints.
