    I don't know when this behavior became acceptable but it's everywhere these days. People just disappear when it's no longer convenient. Employees no-show for shifts, recruiters ghost job applicants, eBay bidders don't respond to invoices, customer service never calls back, and so on. But then, amazingly, these people get mad when somebody does it back to them.

    No no no, you don't understand! They just need to step up and tell Hasbro to step up! Hasbro will just be like "LOL, sorry, we had no idea delivering your orders months late negatively impacts your business, we'll totally put you in front of Walmart" and then everybody will clap!

    This. It’s absolutely hilarious when the abuser gets called out and suddenly they are: “Hey! No fair! Be nice!”

    I mean, if you’re gonna be a jerk, at least own it and stop pretending or shifting the blame.

    My Hot Toys Avengers:Endgame Captain America will be processing soon. My wallet hates me.

    And my latest POL shipment is currently in... The Osseo Zone.

    Weird that my CC Inferno came in before my normal set of Inferno and Dinobot.

    I wonder why bbts hasn't put out any preorders for kingdom soundwave. Are they not doing core class figures? I seen some other places already have their pre orders up. Dissapointing. That would have made a good addition to my pile of loot. Guess I'll be dancing with the sharks again at local retail lol

    When they revealed Core Soundwave on the fan Friday or whatever the event was they specifically called out him and Dracodon as not getting preorders. Which in hindsight was a weird way of saying ‘you can only get this on ebay for $40’ but I don’t speak marketing.

    I'd heard Hasbro wasn't doing preorders for the new Core class at all, so we'd just have to find them a retail. Not sure where other places are getting their stock. I know I was thinking I'd have to find Soundwave at Wal-Mart, but I'm not sure if he's actually an exclusive to there.

    Is it just official Hasbro retailers that are blocked from selling core Dracodon and Soundwave online for whatever reason? i.e. BBTS, Target, Walmart?

    Specialty/comic/collector shops has preorders… Dorkside, TCP, Entertainment Earth has them to pre-order, July release.

    This is what I am asking too. With MP-52 starting to be delivered by other retailers how long will it take BBTS to do the same?
