You'd be surprised how fast you can get reviews out when you're just using stolen figures

Also, I know it's not a race about how many news credits we get, but it would be nice to get recognized when I'm the first posting a news.

Did you actually submit it to the news crew?

My apologies, you were ghosted (my term for last post on page syndrome). It seems like all three of you were very close in time sending this in! I'll amend the story now, thank you and my apologies again

no prob man, thank you.

He did not. Posting it on the boards in no way guarantees the news crew will see it, news must be submitted.

Truth be told, I am a bit worried about the ankle joints formed by Rampage and Long Haul. Are they as sturdy as CW Devastator's?

Or get them from the Philippines. If it can be proven beyond reasonable doubt they were stolen...

Fair enough, the distribution has gone so far off the rails even in the US, I guess this stuff could just already be at retail over there

I dont understand, US distribution is great this year, the toys are all coming out at the right time for 2 waves now.

Depends on where you are in the US. The big problem is that stuff may be on the shelf at one store, but nowhere to be found at the next store. A country as big as the United States isn't always going to have every location stocking things consistently. Even in my small town, you can have completely different results depending on which store you go to. One Target on my side of town is pretty good with Voyagers and Leaders,but is awful with stocking Deluxes and smaller classes. The store on the other side of town, on the other hand, is completely hit and miss.

I get that, but people were clearly talking country to country so thats what I was going with.

Ah,gotcha gotcha. I see what you're saying.

Yeah,the US is definitely getting the figures. There's no doubt about that. There have already been plenty of sightings that have made it to the news.

You lucky duck you, I have looked for those guys for months and no luck!

I go to that Target once a week, and they weren't there last time, so they must have just come in. There are still Dropkicks and Grimlocks clogging the shelves. I have still only seen 1 DoTM Megatron and 1 Jetfire, and that was almost a month ago and nearly 40 miles away.
