    It actually came out tonight. They receive their comics on Wed normally but don't sort thru them until that evening. Plus, I was pass there for lunch today so it made easy to pop in and pay it off.

    Either they didn't order it or they ordered low quantities which were quickly gobbled up.

    PhantomZone in Chatswood are terrible for only ordering in 1 or 2 extra Transformers comics, than what their standing order people ordered.

    Guess Parra is probably the same.

    Funnily enough, the crap comics that anyone could tell you werent going to sell (UK reprints, Saga of the Allspark) they seem to order in heaps of, but revelation, beast Wars and other more popular comics they order none of... go figure.

    I think they expected b/c Saga of the Allspark had been limited to the UK there might be more demand since it spun right out of the movie.

    With BWs stuff and Revelation, those had been having a pretty miserable track record so they didn't bother.

    Do you guys ask about those comics if they don't have them? If you do that definitely heightens the chances of them ordering more in the future. Maybe not just you guys but if every fan who misses out goes in and asks, that'd result in at least 2-3 more copies ordered for the shelves

    But I guess u can't blame them. They have to stay in business after all and why put something on the shelves that people have been walking away from? If I ran a comic shop, I doubt I'd order more than extra 1 or 2 copies of AHM or Beast Wars despite actually like the comics b/c I know the IDW TFs just don't sell well period.

    I spoke to Phantom Zone Parramatta about Alliance and got told that their shipment got delayed... so hopefully I'll be getting it soon. (-_-)

    I just read issue 3... This series goes from strength to strength. It's really building to the Movie. My Decepticon Movie toys have a renewed appreciation! Ssshhh, while I go spin Incinerator's blades.
