    Yes, that's why I wasn't able to order Sideswipe, Hound, or Optimus hours after they appeared two weekends ago.

    Oh wait. I was able to order them. They didn't sell out in minutes. Huh, weird.

    That doesn't prove or disprove anything. Mere hours is not very long. I can go on facebook marketplace, local swipswap, letgo, offerup and mercari apps and see the prices of not just siege but even the reissue minicons going for way too high. It isn't like these people bought it and decided they don't want it afterall, they buy all kinds of stuff that is in high demand or just new to then upsell to fans.

    Keep in mind they don't make money unless someone buys it. You can upmark to whatever it is you like to make something look valuable-- it's not the same as people being willing to pay that much for it.

    It the PotP line was an indication of what's to come with Siege, the line will be readily available throughout 2019 and most likely heavily discounted everywhere by the end of the year.

    I’m not so sure. Potp was pretty Much more of the same. Siege is fresh and new and it’s gotten a lot of fans excited. If retailers don’t anticipate just how much demand there’s going to be for this line I can believe they will be hard to find. Especially with everyone army building with Cog and his fellow weaponizers.

    Potp was fairly readily available but I know several collectors had a hard time tracking down some of the figures. And there was that dang hard to find final wave. Novastar, primal, and the last of the Prime masters were in and out in a blink.

    Correct me if I'm wrong (I'm a bit new to HTS) but it looks like they've removed the "Exclusives" under Special Offers. Maybe this happens when they don't have any in stock to offer or it could just be in preparation for the move?

    Both are possibilities.

    (the last 5 from SDCC 2018 are out of stock on HTS eBay, reference listings: https://shop.hasbro.com/en-us/search?q=SDCC; the Hascon Han / Leia reference listing: https://shop.hasbro.com/en-us/search?search=Hascon)

    Probably not. Why add entries when they'll just renovate the site?

    I second this. It just seems like many retailers are either underestimating the demand for Transformers toys right now, or they simply don’t care and want to focus on other things (these things also have to do with pretty much every other toyline as well). Walmart is a very strong indication of this, as many of them have yet to finish (or even start) their toy section resets. Part of the reasoning behind this though, I heavily assume, is because they still have things left over from PotP that many people were struggling to find, but now don’t care about due to Siege and the new Studio Series stuff coming out. In other words, a lot of Walmarts cannot keep up with the supply and demand for a lot of toylines right now, and that is a HUGE problem.

    In terms of HTS on the other hand, I have no idea what could be happening with that as I don’t really shop on there unless it is a last resort.
