Because people found out Covid-19makes the perfect excuse tocover their natural laziness, ineptitude and greed.

you really think that thousands of ppl across multiple industries throughout the world all just decided to use covid to be lazier? ?

And its not that safe social distancing slows down production, which is a warranted and acceptable reason for empty pegs right now?

Indeed it is true

Its the same thing all over the country. the pandemic is causing slow downs across all avenues of production. Toys, materials, food. Why do you think taco bell is about to cut a quarter of their menu, or shipping on anything is taking longer.

Don't believe the hype. Look at any Target or Walmart in my area. Empty pegs. Shelf space can be going at that big a premium.

But that doesnt change the fact that buyers for big retailers dont want to take the chance of taking up that kind of space, at that price point, for fear they may not sell. They dont look at direct funded ventures like Haslab and assume itll mean sales for them. One thing above all else is they are ridiculously cheap.

I cant be mad at Haslab. Beause of its business model were getting that sentinel which is outstanding and would never have worked under normal business practices. Big box stores dont like to carry something that large and that expensive unless its something like a bike or power wheels.

Shelf space is at a premium, especially with toysrus gone, so to manage costs the big box stores wouldve demanded a smaller size or lower price point, which couldve ruined it. Also given Haslabs infrequency, I dont think its holding up normal production that much at all.

Odd, I was hoping this line would last long enough for me to finish the first bloody wave. I also hope Hasbro wakes the F--K up and ends that Haslab BS so they can put all their efforts behind getting their normal stuff to the pegs . . . like REAL toy companies.

I really hope this line goes on long enough to get characters like Buzzsaw and Zarana and Bazooka. And at least one GI Joe vehicle from Haslab. OF course we all want the USS Flagg, but I'd settle for the Defiant Shuttle.

This would be great for SDCC if the exclusive items are going to be available on the website. We've seen a lot of exclusives only available at SDCC.

Yeah,but Hasbro is usually pretty good about getting their SDC Exclusives to Pulse.

Thus far there really havent been many perks outside of convention season. I go to SDCC every year so for that reason its worth it to me, but thats really about it.
