Independant Retailers Screwed Over FoC Going Exclusive

Weapon: tea cup."
Kapow have just had their FOC order cancelled so it seems it really will be an exclusive line - only the unknown shop will be carrying wave 1 and no British online shops will be able to stock them.

You mean yet again paying higher prices for something which could have been lower if Hasbro UK/Europe weren't penises.

Of course we can!

wasn't FOC first announced as Argos exclusive...then when someone contacted Hasbro they said the toys would be in all shops...sounds like a typical case of Hasbro UK going "whu? Trance...Foamers? Do we sell those?"

Hasbro UK.....fecking over Star Wars Collectors since 1997 and now applying that same world class incompetence to my beloved TFs........Isn't Evolution supposed to take care of clueless arsewits like this and make them extinct? Then at least you know UPFRONT you are reduced to ordering everything you need from BBTS.

ahhhh my friend never underestimate the ineptitude of a business hierarchy.
Wrestling is just a male soap opera, though less believable.

Well this completely sucks, sorry UK folk. D: Hopefully Hasbro gets their heads out of their asses, I can't even imagine why they'd do something like that.
