Dude.. hasbro where the hell is the First edition voyagers? England's got the line AFTER the first edition wave ... WHY ARE YOU BEING SO RESERVED AND SHADY?!?!?
Im VERY dissapointed with the hasbro distribution .. honestly I'd expect the US to get these figures first.

i agree.. it's absolutely ridiculous. the US has yet to see all of the first edition wave.. and the UK has already gotten the main line figures. .. hell there are even people who haven't seen any of the first edition figures. it's BS.
.. not only that.. but they get figures that were literally just revealed to us a day or so prior to them hitting stores.
i don't mind other countries getting them first.. but when they're that far ahead of us.. that's when i start having a problem. this is the US.. where hasbro is based.. get your ____ing products on the ____ing shelves already.
the worst part of this whole deal is that there is literally nothing we can do.. we're obviously going to be buying the figures when (if) we see them.. and we're going to continue supporting the brand. but at this point hasbro needs to take notice of this and understand that they're pissing off a lot of people that put money in their pockets and put a lot of time and effort into their products.
i wish someone would grill them on their distribution because it absolutely blows. i'm sick of seeing stores with either empty pegs or bumblebee repaints.
sorry.. my whining and complaining is over (for now). i'm happy for the people who have been able to pick these things up and have been kind enough to share photos and reviews with us, kudos to you guys.

People who haven't seen the First Edition figures, eh? Like the whole of the UK, who won't be getting the line released at all? So we're not "ahead" of you. We're getting some releases and you've gotten some other releases.

I take this in stride, since we Americans usually get almost everything else first....)
That's so culturally insensitive; don't you know that becoming indignant over perceived slights is as American As Apple Pie and is an integral part of our national identity?Stumpybot wrote:I think people need to quit getting their panties in a twist over it. Seriously

Should we assume there's some satire in there somewhere?

I wonder will there be a voyager class t.f.p. starscream released any time in the near future?
