I admit, I have no idea how the process works, but my crap TRU, that never has anything decent, has had the Insecticon box set, Platinum Laser Prime and the "gold Soundwave" sitting on a shelf for the better part of a year. No one is buying. They eventually got rid of MP Bluestreak, but price dropped it by $20 before they started moving. How much longer is a retailer going to keep gambling on high priced collection pieces before Hasbro ends up not having anywhere to sell their repaints and re-runs.
I really like the MP wave, but if this keeps up we can be pretty sure that the Hasbro run of the Takara MP's will never get brought over here.
