Post my sighting why don't ya.....
Yes, TRU are receiving their Exclusive (has the exclusive sticker) Whirl and Bludgeon packs....
Scans (checkpoint) at $79.9X.... But at the register comes up with an "Unavailable for sale" message.
What to say.... BEAUTIFUL cgi details on the character heads on the front of the box.... really going out of their way for "non-movie" figures.
so no idea of release date.... but they are shipping at least
any pic? :D
Of what? a recently emptied shelf?
I've always been curious about this, what's the law when it comes to refusal to sell displayed items in a store? I know they're worried about having a falling out with Hasbro, but really, they've already cocked up by putting it on the shelf, so an angry fan could always 'dob' them in anyway?
Not that I've got any particular interest in buying that two pack, nor is there any way I could buy it as TRU continues to arrogantly ignore the Tasmanian market.
Items in stores and on shelves are "an invitation to treat". This means that the store invites you to make an offer to purchase the item. Once the store accepts your offer, then the contract is complete and the sale is made. Placing the item on the shelf does not constitute an offer so that your willingness to buy does not constitute an acceptance.
This is why most stores can negotiate price, and why, in this case, they can refuse to sell the item to you.
The head of Whirl is something many of you will want to look at closely.... bad paint ap on top where the 2 halves join together....
Apart from that they look pretty good....
oh... except woth the injection mould mark on the knee of Whirl as well.... Mine's very white....
:p
