Thanks for letting us know this - found Loki at TRU yesterday. (Ended up knocking most of the figures off the pegs in the process!)

You don't need to reply because it really doesn't matter what you say - this is what you're getting. By the way, have you seen some of the cool SDCC stuff we're making this year? Finally got around to making one of Marvel's top villains 'Baron Zemo'. Europe? No - never. Black Widow from the hugely successful Avengers movie? Why would we want to send figures of the only female superhero in the film? It's not like any girls that may have seen the movie would like to own a figure of the only female hero is it? Loki? Why would any kids in Europe want to play with the villain of the movie? Didn't we send you a Loki in the Thor line? Never made it there? What about the Gigantic Battles Loki? US only? Hold on - seems like a few Loki's slipped through and showed up at Toys R Us - we've plugged that leak - sorry about that, and by 'sorry' I mean we don't care. We're just not seeing the need for a Loki release over there from over here. Look, we'll send you more Thor's, Captain America's and Iron Men. Does that sound good? Please don't answer - this conversation is over."
Nice rant and spot on!
