Simple answer is that Pulse probably isn't allowed (or has chosen not to allow them to keep the partner exclusive deal in the long run) to ship until the main retailer ships their exclusives.

I often wonder how much stock goes to employees, I never saw a Major Bludd on store shelves but ebay was over loaded with him and people paying $75 or more for him, i got lucky and bought one from a fellow tanker at retail, but i remember when Toys R Us was in full swing and i spoke with several employees when i was looking for a particular item and they were pretty open about how they got first crack at new merchandise plus a employee discount, so i imagine the same thing happens at Target and Wal-mart, it wasnt long ago i saw Breaker with RAM cycle in stock at a local Target, i went and nothing was on the shelves, i had to ask an employee and he said they kept them in the stock room, i bought one but the guy asked if i wanted more than one.

This is what I want to know. Now I broke down and got them from Star in the UK anyways but this is an important question.

Pulse seems to have to wait until the retail partner gets theirs out first. I've never seen them ship exclusives earlier than a partner.

And Hasbro even sent out PP Vipers to Influencers as gifts in those 40th anniversary boxes. Hasbro Pulse most likely has their stock of these Target exclusives but can't ship them out so they don't upset their retail partner. I can understand this but Pulse is also now wasting money storing these figures in their warehouse.

Or has every single 2022 release been reasonably close to day-and-date with retailers as well?

Wait, has this two pack always been $45.99? I checked my Amazon order and at one point it was selling for $35.99. Anyway, BBTS is doing pretty well getting the Classified items early recently.

Amazon put theirs on sale maybe a month ago and if you had already preordered it from them at the point they preorder price guaranteed your order to $35 down from the regular 40 something.
