Fucktards! Solid Vision! Blade! Check ebay, you doofs!
You know every other company that sells a product does site visits where the send reps into actual stores to see how stuff is selling, make sure the display looks good, make sure that if there isn't product on the shelves and if there isn't get it ordered and on its way, or find out what the deal is. How do I know? Because I've done it.

So why is hasbro apparently not doing this?? If they were they certainly wouldn't be repacking falcon! That's a basic practice of companies to maximize profits, and ensure if there is a product people desire make more and sell more, again, maximizing profits.

The conversation you had with whoever it was at the con was, for a while anyway, hope inspiring. Giving them a list of rares, them trying to explain distro issues, for a minute felt like they would actually fix something.

But my gut tells me it's lip service. It seems like they don't give a shit, telling you the case assortment is random is tantamount to saying, "we are gonna make these products, but we don't really care if it's something you want or if it actually sells or not".

Hasbro is a big company with their hands in a lot of different pots, so I gather it could be difficult to track it all, but where there's a will there's a way.

Pre retaliation joes, walking into my 4 area Walmarts and there not being one gi joe figure on the pegs is just plain stupid, a lack of effort on everyone's part.

I do appreciate the Rogue/Longshot pack coming out, but really? One more wolvie? Come on man!
