Naturally we needed more of Hardhead and Hot Rod...good grief,lol.

A case assortment of stuff we need instead of stuff we already have? makes too much sense so no

Re: Think I'm Done with Hasbro + TRU
I'm with the OP. Limited run exclusives and U.S.-only releases are a large part of what ruins the fun of collecting for me. I'm supposed to pay scalper prices + shipping + import fees for what should be a mainline release? Blargh.

Re: Think I'm Done with Hasbro + TRU
Ever since CW started I've been buying Takara figures almost exclusively. After the POTP price hike it's going to end up being cheaper for me too.

Yeah cause it's not like Arcee and Grotusque were going to be in two other boxsets with Cloudraker and wingspan. Wait.......

Boxsets were another bee in my bonnet. They made sense for niche combiner, but That's it.

I hear you. Arcee did have lots of issues, but you can still preorder her right now, she comes out tomorrow
https://www.toysrus.com/product?prod..._psugg_q=arcee
While it wont ship to a canadian address, you can have her ship to a US based pot company that will either hold it for you close to the border or ship it to you. And to split your costs, TRU has a buy 2 get one free campaign right now so you could buy two arcees and something else and split the costs of the ordeal with a friend who also wants Arcee.

How do you do it for TTmall exclusives that dont ship to canada? Like Grand Galvatron, Defensor and others?

I have a bad feeling that the TRU.com release WAS the "normal retail release".

Yeah me too! I guess I'll just have to resign myself to the fact that I can't have everything I want, even though I really do want this.
