Why can't we, instead of buying the transformers figures on ebay, instead buy it from hasbro? I mean I do that and it's way cheaper than ebay's prices so can anyone tell me why no one here uses that website to buy theirs?

They rarely have anything in at hasbotoyshop.com that I want. Ebay pretty much always has something, and it carries, rarities, vintage, KOs, etc.

HTS is not bad, just has very limited stock.

If Hasbro started selling figures not from their current lines (ie, figures from beast Wars, RID etc) I'd be quite happy to buy stuff from them (If they would actually ship it to Australia). But as tigertracks said, they really have nothing in their online store that is worth purchasing.

QFT. aside from the latest toy releases (which, considering that they are the LATEST RELEASE, are severely limited in availability, d'oh!) they have nothing better to offer. they don't even sell the complete lines of whatever series they currently are promoting.

plus, i don't think they actually ship overseas.

limited stock indeed. and i doubt if you could order anything from HTS, if anyone were allowed to buy form there, including scalpers and hoarders, they would have very limited items thus unable to fulfill all orders, inculding yours, mine, and many other collectors. itll be just like that when rodimus was available at HTS. limited and gone in 2 hours.

Because all the good stuff that people want to buy are out of stock at Hasbro's online shop?

Because the Hasbro Executives & Marketers are THE DEVIL!

(The Designers are alright though )
