Wanna hear about shit distribution? You gonna hear about shit distribution.

I'm Canadian, from the province of Québec.

You Americans are spoiled to no end.

Your bloodline has biased you to no end. It's well known that Quebeckers hate Americans, and most of the French in general, do too. However, we're not all bad, nor do we turn our noses up at you.

You do realize that you're blanket statementing an entire country of people, because you have a bug up your ass and it makes you look bad, right?

We don't go out of our way to bash Canadians, which you and your fellow Quebeckers are also, and we don't seem to have much, if any trouble with them and vice versa. Your province doesn't even want to be part of Canada. I remember when you lot wanted to secede and caused a ruckus.

Now that that unpleasantness is out of the way, I don't deny that we have been spoiled, yes. However, you most likely will still get the figures you haven't received yet. You have plenty coming your way if Hasbro Canada keeps their word of delivering.

As for us? We've had nothing for MONTHS. Spoiled? In general, but not this year. Everybody's had to import, left and right. Last official wave of DOTM? Air Raid/Dark Steel. October/November. Two new molds, that's it. Before that, I don't even remember the last time I bought a movie figure. I'm gonna say July, August...maybe?

Prime? You folks got first dibs. Mind you, I'm not complaining. Hey, more power to you. It's about time Canada got first dibs. Us? We have Arcee, Bumblebee and Starscream. And Bumblebee clogs the pegs so much, plus Hasbro hasn't shipped anything, so new Prime Deluxes? Hah. Not bloody likely.

Prime Voyagers? No clue as to when they'll hit US soil. Which is why my Dad bought them for me as a Christmas present and allowed me to import from Canada.

Prime Entertainment Pack? Same. No clue when it's coming here, but you have it. Granted, you're getting screwed on the price. $45.00 is a lot of money for something that has a MSRP of $30.00 USD.

I had to import everything but the three main Deluxes. Those I had to buy on eBay. (Thanks again, Ryan! )

No new DOTM, no new Prime, and Generations went out with a whimper. Two redecos and poof. Gone.

Hasbro's not shipping anything right now, stores can't restock right now, DOTM/Movie Trilogy has been delayed and pushed back to February, at least. Up in the air is Leadfoot, Soundwave and Wheeljack. Which, again, I had to import.

We're getting the chance to see what you go through, but just because we haven't experienced it quite like this before, doesn't mean we didn't understand your plight. Your arrogance and bile spewing are offensive.

And I'll take being in Canada over America any day. Happy with the my TF Prime - Voyager Primes.

Not quite sure how to take that... Hopefully you're saying that because you have Prime before we do.

..I thought Italy was bad for prices!

I mean, yeah, same kind of distribution, but prices are way lower that that.
I believe Leader Sentinel was around 40€, just before Christmas.
