Maybe you should change "no one is willing to" to "only a few begrudgingly"

But I agree, in the age of the online shop, the entire sales model of these premium toys needs to change which I think Hasbro is dabbling into with Generations Selects and their US online store. However they are still very reliant on 'big store' money who, generally speaking, have a pretty 20th century sales model.

Ordered Legends Big Powered from Robo Toy Base and I'm just waiting for it to ship from Hong Kong.

Waiting for Artfire to arrive at my local EB. It went green on EBWorld over a week ago, but all they can tell me is that it's in transit, and they'll definitely send me an e-mail or a text or call me when it arrives (did not happen at all for the first two things I ordered via EB, although they did turn up, and has not had a chance to happen for a couple of other things since, because I've cancelled them due to being available elsewhere first)

Still, at least this one won't be turning up on the local Big W shelves before EB can deliver, right?

I'm waiting. Waiting waiting waiting.

Hoping I can get my BBTS order sent this week as people have received replies that they are shipping to us again.

And two days later it is here. Huzzah!

My MP Shouki was shipped yesterday. Can't wait!

Just paid for MP Getsuei. Can't wait!

I'm waiting for the wave 2 Velocitron deluxes to arrive. They just shipped from Singapore and should hopefully arrive sometime in October.
Most likely gonna get them before Zing bothers to stock Scourge.

Same! Keen for this train action (and he looks a lot more dynamic than Shouki)
