If this is true, then we won't be seeing too many more Marvel Legends Exclusives at Gamestop, so only time will tell.

Just a thought...

It stands to reason that Hasbro would put in the contract with a store for an exclusive, a provision stating they had to sell/order X amount or they will let someone else have it.

My reasoning...

I'm in an area that has GameStops at every corner, like seriously they are all over, and I ended up having to go to 5 different ones to find one. This was after asking them to look it up in there system to see if another store had them. When I got to the store that "had them", they never received any. 4 of the Stores NEVER got any, the 1 I got it at, only got 1 because it was special ordered and then the guy never picked it up or canceled. I did eventually end up at another store on the other side of town that had 3 cases of them on the shelf and as of the other day, they are all still there. All 6 stores never sold any except the 1 to me, at least according to them. One of the stores, a guy working there actually told me that Gamestop doesn't get exclusive toys, go figure.

Gamestops here in south florida are horrible. None of them carry any collectibles or goodies like that. So i had to order mine online. gs was so bad i had to call them up and remind them that i preordered and paid for mine. It was literally after of a month of waiting that i was like "Hold up where the hell is the figure i paid for?"

It makes sense then that they would go that route with the TRU stores.... i recall hearing gamestop was going the same route a few years ago, and shutting down stores.
