On the "recognized collector demographic" front, I got this email from Hasbro Pulse. I've only ordered the Siege wave 2 deluxes.

Anyone else get one?


Got mine like an hour ago too. I seriously doubt they'll offer anything that would make me want to sign up for it next year.

Well that's just bad marketing. Makes more sense to give us just a taste, dangle the carrot, then put it away once they get the money.

So I guess it's toys as a service now?

thats ok with me, i find it has been increasingly difficult to find figues at stores the last several years and i grow weary of hunting for them when they arent there to begin with, some stores that i frequent that carry Transformers Generations only go as far as the first wave and dont carry larger than voyagers and the ones that supposed to have most sizes and waves always run out of stock and shelves stay empty for months, i find it easier just to get what i want from the major online collector toy websites

If it continues the way it has, I really doubt it. Siege seems to be flying off the shelves so far in my area, and Walmart has even reallocated space for the leader class.

I think there will definitely be a larger online presence, but so long as the toys keep being bought, the major retailers will stock it.

The only problem I see is the limited shelf space and limited release cycles for the toys. I see a large breadth of characters available across other lines (including the TF lines) at the primary size class (Deluxe-ish). But only 4 different figures at any given time for Generations at the deluxe class.
