Apparently the retailers didn't understand what was changing, and were ready to purge the old codes from their databases before Hasbro caught it. Much of the delay at this point has been due to the reexplaining of the situation between the distributors and the retailers.

He went on to assure me multiple times that David Vonner left them so far ahead in the MU department that they have more than enough new figures to last until the end of 2013, if not beyond. Both Dwight and another independent Hasbro painter assured me that MU isn't going anywhere.

Dwight was really excited about their new Legends ideas, so it was bait difficult to keep them talking about MU, especially when most of that work has been long done.

Nice....! Thanks for the info bro.....Can't wait till next month....Wife is going to want to divorce me..lol!
