I'm gonna have to disagree with you on that, D-Max, I would rather be inundated with new figures to where I have to make a financial plan to get them all than have only a few figures trickle down every now and then. Sure, it's better for the wallet, but not for the soul.D-Maximal_Primal wrote:I actually miss those days. There is so much product out right now, i miss the days of a wave having 5 figures total between size classes I wanted.

As for this whole Unicron fiasco, I've been quiet about it, but I pretty much agree with what Counterpunch said. It's an impressive figure, but Hasbro seriously dropped the ball on everything else from promotion to timing to financing options.

So, yeah, blame Brexit.it's genuinely been in the works for a while now, the reason its taken so long is it needs to be signed off by the USA which happened yesterday ( 17th ) the brexit thing is a pain for this project and its something we're discussing with them at the moment.
And yeah in days gone we weren't geared up for EU and we def cannot please everyone, everyone has good and bad to say about all retailers but I promise you this we'll try our best to help out Europe with this project via the official channels and have already been in contact with an EU based business with regard to the assisting us.

I will be honest I have not dedicated my brain to wrapping around Brexit. I probably know more about Cybertronian politics than Earth politics
Can you explain for me how you think it impacted or complicated things? Or is it just going to get too political. Just genuinely curious no dog in the fight or anything.

In a nutshell, the UK will no longer be part of the larger European Economic Union, and will form its own separate economic entity. However, the conditions and date are still not agreed upon even after all those years, thanks to all the bickering in parliament.

"UNICRON stands alone as the most menacing figure in TRANSFORMERS lore, capable of devouring entire worlds and civilizations. He debuted in the 1986 film Transformers: The Movie and his insatiable appetite nearly brought the entire universe to its knees. But his legacy transcends both space and time.
