I don't mean to be hitting the POC Panic button (we already have a thread for that) but I just want to pass on what was told to me at TRU.
So I asked the nice lady to look in their computer to see if they had any POC figures in the back. She looked it up and said "no we don't have any right now, but it looks like this item has been discontinued" WTF? She even showed me the screen and sure enough it said the item was discontinued. She said that doesn't mean the store won't receive anymore, only that whatever is in the TRU warehouse is all that there will ever be...no more POC coming tot he warehouse. What could that mean? That Hasbro has already told the stores that POC is ending and 30th is starting soon? I hope that's all that it means. Hasbro telling the retailers that they won't be producing anymore POC makes sense, a little early if you ask me considering there is still another wave not released yet. You should also know that it was a Arctic Destro that she scanned. Maybe their computers differentiate between 2010 POC and 2011 POC. So 2010 POC might be discontinued but 2011 POC is alive and well. Anyways, what do you guys think? |

The new wave has all new skus. They weren't even in the system when I purchased mine yesterday. I'm sure it's just a case of the TRU order system locking out waves that they don't want, or are no longer available.

Sounds more like they're not doing any more Arctic Destros than the line being cancelled to me.

^This^ Don't worry, TRU has been making good money on POC, mine goes through it really fast, even all the arctic Destro are gone.

yuppers. Each "wave" gets its own sku vs just using one to describe the entire line.
