And how did they word it, something like too similar to a recently released HasTak product or something? Well, Encore Dev was just released a couple months ago...
And that would explain the TFC Neckbreaker all over the advertising for BBTS in certaim areas.....like the banner above? Giant in the current Yellow is a heck of a lot LESS like an encore Devy i would have thought.
I could understand BBTS looking nervously at the relationship they have with Hasbro and not wanting to cross the line....but maybe they just want to get rid of the few thou Herc bits they have in stock before putting a "rival" up. Crazy talk maybe....but 3rd Party stuff NEVER goes on clearance on the site (except poor old Sonicron-what did he do wrong?) so discuss.
I probably would get this set from BBTS as the POL postage I have built up to date would make it more cost effective than going elsewhere....so stock the damn thing Joel....I'll buy.
