Good to know. Hopefully we won't have to wait too long for the next wave. I was only mildly into the original line as a kid, so all I really want is the remaining three kids, plus Strongheart & Warduke, on principal, since they were the most recognizable characters from the old toy commercials.

The funny thing is, I didn't even play D&D that much, but I liked the cartoon and books like the Monster Manual, and LOVED the LJN toy line. Any time one of the figure characters had a cameo in the cartoon, I'd go ballistic. I wish I'd kept all those puffy stickers and coloring books, they're pretty valuable today.

So I guess no more importing figures early from Europe/UK anymore? Not even an explanation to those stores on why they will no longer be able to get GI Joe product from Hasbro directly? I guess the next round table will be interesting when someone asks why this happened.

For you D&D fans, TNI is stating that all of the D&D figures revealed today, except for that version of Venger, will be available at other retailers after Pulse-Con.
Here's TNI's exact quote: "As part of Target's Fall Geek Out, Hasbro debuted NEW Dungeons & Dragons Animated Series Figures! Shown are figures of Hank the Ranger, Diana, Bobby the Barbarian with Uni the Unicorn, Dungeon Master and Venger the Force of Evil. Go Preorder yours today via Target.com!. This version of Venger is the only figure that is being released as a Target exclusive. The others will be released shortly after Pulsecon next week (9/30) at other retailers. This is only the first wave." |

I'm unsure why they just don't make them for sale only in Europe as in telling stores they can't sell them to American addresses. Plenty of online retailers do this, especially overseas ones. |

Those stores were like,"Yeah? Fuck you!" But then Hasbro was like,"No. Fuck YOU!" Seriously. What else could it be?

It was on her d&d Instagram post today. If you're asking when she said they left the warehouse, I'm not 100% sure when. I do remember her saying tiger force is next to ship during a livestream before yojoe june. Then during yojoe june she stated everything that had been preordered during pulsecon last year had shipped to retailers. So its been about 4 months or more since these were said to have shipped to target. Not placing any blame on her either, but something is holding up the release and it would be nice to have an update.
Etc., but draw the line somewhere Hasbro. Great saying they've left our warehouses and it's on Target now. So SHIP yours out lol |

How is it that their own brand team was unaware of this?

Actually I'm impressed with how quickly she responded to the rampant rumor mill this morning that Classified was going to be a Pulse only exclusive. I asked about it on her IG and w/in an hour I found a post on TNI that she confirmed that limitation was UK/EU only. Not that I'm happy for those folks of course, but I AM happy we should no longer see the early release syndrome that we've all been watching with frustration this year. How many times has the EU/UK gotten Classified months and months ahead of the U.S.? Anyway, Emily if you're reading this... you are aces my friend. |
