Gods sake what happened to all exclusives also on Pulse? and why is t-wrecks taking so long, its been found in lots of places

 

Hes on the UK site for preorder. Been there a few days.

Hes also available to preorder on the US version of Zavvi if that helps anyone

 

Thanks for the info - hopefully this means roadrage also will show up here.

 

Thats what im hoping too, ive wanted her for ages

 

Ultimately it's Target that sets the rules here.
Not Pulse.
Not Hasbro.
Target's not just selling an exclusive toy.
They're also selling the Redcard.
They can't do that if you buy on pulse
So for now no pulse
Once initial exclusivity runs out here in US, he'll pop up on pulse.
Have patience.

 

This - Redwing was easily available a year later.
If you "gotta catch 'em all" right away I'm sure someone on the boards with a Red Card might be able to help. If not, play the long game of patience and it will eventually prove successful. It's not a fun game of chance, but we've seen many exclusives return in greater accessibility. I know someone will want to contradict me by bringing up the Coneheads, Paradrons, or Earthrise Alliance... but those are the only three exceptions to the most recent releases.

 

On what planet? I couldn't get mine until BBTS posted a small lot and they sold quickly.

 

The concern is that the availability window for non-Redcard holders is going to be vanishingly small. Because what's the standard production run on a store exclusive? 20,000 units? Pulse gets 5% of that run, so we're down to 19,000. Target could reasonably Redcard-exclusive another 4,000, leaving 15,000 to be sold to regulars in stores. 1,897 Targets in the U.S. in 2020, and what's 15,000 divided by 1,897? 7.9. Just enough figures for each store to get one case. Which could very realistically sell through the same day it comes in.

Either this, or the production run is higher. Compare to Runabout. How many people found him in store? How many people saw the same figures on the peg over multiple days? And he wasn't behind a Redcard exclusivity.

 

F it I got a red card. I’ll probably need it when they make Crosscut…

i got him on amazon market for a decent price like over 30.

 

Planet Earth. Entertainment Earth that is. It has now since sold out, but their inventory was present for a few months. That's how I got mine.

 

he wasn’t super hard to find a few months ago. BBTS has a few Target exclusives for preorder that never showed up on Pulse.

 

Well, ok right. What I mean is, if that keeps scalpers from getting the goods, sign me up for a red card and do all the store exclusives like that.

-A.S.

 

Finally, living in this shithole paid off!

 

I ordered from BBTS. I won't shop with Embarrassment Earth.

 

I don't think they ever promised everything would be available at the same time. Target is obviously doing an exclusive window for T-Wrecks. Wouldn't surprise me to see him on Pulse once that window closes.

 

Small Update Road Rage is hasbro Product Number: F0924

 

I’m not criticizing anyone who is upset about the Target exclusivity of Road Rage, but… it seems like all of the reviewers are crapping all over Kingdom Tracks. Maybe folks aren’t missing out on much? Just trying to look for a silver lining here…  

 

I still plan on getting him and Road Rage because I have neither character in my collection. I also tend to overlook a lot of the more intricate critiques many, but not all, reviewers focus on.

 

Same for me. I can't recall any specific examples bit I recall some figures getting absolutely railed for "issues" that didn't really bother me at all.

Tracks does look to be the weakest WFC deluxe so far, mostly due to how big of a gap he has. But I still need him, and especially Road Rage. I would also love a new Loudpedal.

 

Yeah eventually these figures will become easier to get and from different places. Long term.
