I've been told hasbrotoyshop is not actually hasbro affiliated, is this true?

If so they could start their own easy enough, if not then they could sell through the site without starting a subscription service or collectors club, and fuck scalpers at the same time.

They could still have their shitty case assortments and send those to stores and moms and dads would still buy them for their precious little snowflakes who they made the mistake of taking down the toy isle.

But then, they could make say a case of 1 or 2 hundred for exclusive selling online, limit them to 2 per customer, and when they get down to 50 or 25 left, make another run, if stuff gets stagnant and doesn't sell dole it out to the Ross's and the like and that's it for that figure. Maybe slip it in a revision case for stores if u really feel the need.

This would not only make Hasbro more money (that they are loosing on the secondary market anyway to scalpers) but it would help true collectors, and simultaneously fuck scalpers over. Who may feel the need to make multiple accounts and buy figs they think would be sought after, but since we could all get the same figs anyway we wouldn't need to result to scalpers.

All this without the need to have a subscription service or collectors club, which would incur extra costs to set up and maintain.

And it's not like the president doesn't exist for making cases of a single figure with subscription exclusives and mail aways, which they could also continue to do.
