Good grief guys. I know there are next to zero mods here these days, but can we just agree:
1. Lanard has lots of product at Amazon and Wal Mart 2. Some American collectors would like for to to be a little easier to get the Gryphon, Sky Strike, and the Rock (and by easy I mean Walmart.com, Walmart shelves, or Amazon). And that’s just about it. Now can we just enjoy what they make and know that it’s all obtainable but some items are easier than others. |

EXACTLY WALT.
lanard's for kids. then why in the living hell do you insist on saying "order it internationally" for a toy line that's made specifically for kids. Quote:
Quote:
8 year olds arent making purchases online, nor browsing retail or teacher's supply websites and grandmothers arent paying 20 msrp in australian dollars that are less than us funds to ship a large box for 20-50 dollars austrailian dollars that are less than us funds. please stop saying they make these toys for children when the only way for children to get them is to rely on an adult that is not a toy collector; which is an interesting notion in of itself. a non collector is relied upon, by you and lanard, to buy a gryphon. question for everyone else: could you rely on a family member that neither cares for your hobby of toy collecting, to buy a gryphon from australia? part 2, the same question if you were an 8 year old? i can already hear my mother laughing. my child wont know what that's like, except when it comes to products from a company that's partnered with a teacher's educational supply webstore because there's no way i would ever know that a product is available there unless i got into an argument on the internet with a company shill that only knows that's even an option long after it's not available anymore.

Again the Gryphon was sold through several vendors for over a year solid, and a few retailers did carry it (No, not walmart) And I provided links when it was on US toy and Constructive playthings, The Sky-Strike was sold at Sams as an exclusive boxed set, and went fast! I personally assisted several collectors get the set, as well as the sky-strke was sold during the Holidays through go stores and go toys.
And The collectors I've seen online are purchasing these, both for themselves and for their kids. This is no different than when the gijoe had the defiant, or uss flagg, not every store carried it. You know what the difference then to now is? other than the world wide web, or ebay.....We had TOY STORES! Shelf space is the key here, and it's something that I've explained over and over, it's why you only saw the Beast Bomber, and Rainfire during the holidays a few years back, The boxes were huge! and retailers want specific items that they get more of. And Yes, Lanard Toys is a Worldwide toy comapany, Not just Domestic. right now kids in the UK and Australia can't get the Lanard 7" alien or predator lines (till after march for international) But guess what....International Adults are ordering from domestic partners to get them for their kids before march! Now you're concentrating on 2 very specific items, 3 if you count the rock. And as stated they've been obtainable, Be it not as easily as just walking into one retailer, but obtainable nonetheless. Again Lanard is a Worldwide Toy Company, that has created Thousands of products! From Preschool toys to Action figures, to garden and nature outdoor toys, Licensed Products, Dart Guns, Fun toys for both girls and boys. And Every year that product output grows! FACT!

I want to apologize if my comment set something off. It was an expression of disappointment not of blame. At this point I've accepted that I will probably not get some of the cooler items Lanard produces. I understand the logistics of it all and also accept the limitations.
When Tkprime posted that the Sky Strikes were being spotted in calendar stores and later Sams Clubs, I checked each website. They were either not available for mail order or not in my area. I also checked for local locations and while I couldnt find a calendar club, did visit more Sams Clubs than I care to admit. No luck. I dont in any way blame Tkprime for this. I appreciate the notifications of new items and availability. He doesnt control what stores buy certain products. Walmart could just as easily have gone all in on the Time Crisis line and passed on the Aliens line. Then we would all be arguing about not being able to find the Aliens. It's not a big deal. In the grand scheme of things, not getting a plastic toy isnt going to change my life. I even looked at buying an import but decided that would be above what I'm willing to pay for it. If I could suggest one thing it would be for everyone to post links when they find something for sale domestically (in the US) online. While not a guaranty it will increase the chances of scoring one. That's how I was able to buy the Walmart Joe Retro figures I've got and how I'm hoping to get a Scarlet. Anyway, have a great day guys!! |

Thanks Billybob, and I did post up more links for both the Corps!, and Jurassic Clash just this morning (As of right now they are all still in stock).
And I don't take any offense to anyone wanting answers, (even thedarkone508) as these questions are on a lot of parents, and Adult collectors minds. I brought this megathread here to keep everyone informed, and educated on all releases, I promise as soon as information is Finalized and Cleared after Hong Kong Toyfair there will be a full listing of what will be available for both domestic and international markets. I appreciate everyone's enthusiasm, and love of the brand, This is a monumental year, 2021 is the Corps! 35th Anniversary! and It's going to be a fun year for Lanard Collectors in general. Regardless of anyone's sarcasms directed at me, I will continue to bring the Latest Product information, and News to both here, and through Social media as it's Cleared and Allowed.

yeah i dont blame walt for lack of product.
i blame him for thinking that children and adult collectors know to shop on a teacher's supply website for a gryphon. i blame him for thinking that it's perfectly acceptable to buy a less than premium toy line internationally, with the addition of shipping rates; and if you're lucky the us dollar exchange rate being in our favor. i blame him for thinking that it's fine to have a proxy to purchase these items be it, out of state, internationally or at their annual clearance sale, or a parent/grandparent who then will need to buy it internationally or at an annual clearance sale. i blame him for assuming children have full access the internet to the point of making a purchase; much less an international one. i blame him for not figuring out what his narrative is. are they for children? or are they for adult collectors? one does not have the same resources as the other. having followed living the adventure dios on facebook for at least as long as the gryphon has been out, and searched it as of last week for these sources - i've found no links to any of those sources he's listed here. strange. it's definitely lanard's problem for picking what stores they're partnering with to sell their product; they arent doing a very good job of it. i dont see why walmart couldnt go all in with both time crisis and the aliens line. it's not like the space isnt there, nor is apparently the customer base to show for it.
