Re: Top 10 Worst Distributed Transformers

Ah, a topic that's near & dear to my heart

10 - preordered on WM website, no issues
9 - initially passed @ retail; eventually bought this 2ndhand off a fellow boardie, price wasn't skyhigh at all
8 - happened upon the full case assortment one morning before work right when the wave was launching - got to compare both copies for QA & purchased @ MSRP (never saw this figure again, in stores)
7 - caught this one @ MSRP when TRU had a listing up for two seconds (bought two in order to free shipping, & sold off the 2nd copy later on)
6 - (had to look this one up) apparently I picked him up @ TFCon 2021? don't remember price, I'm sure I had to late tax
5 - preordered @ the local GameStop, no issues (notably this the only copy I've ever seen, though)
4 - same as above, although mine had a face QA, and I WAS able to replace it with another copy I saw in the local GameStop
3 - preordered on WM website, no issues - I even saw this 2 or 3 times in stores, honestly
2 - WalMart Canada was honestly spoiled for this guy? the couple Xmas's ago when this guy launched, I saw the local WM, and another one further out, both get a case (4 copies of fig) each; picked him up @ MSRP, no issues (though mine was pretty smear-y with the black paint on the wings) - I even still see the odd copy floating around in certain locations' overstock shelves
1 - preordered on WM website, no issues - only paid the late tax when I decided to get a 2nd copy

I was hoping they might bring back Greenlight (Amazon exclusive) but pretty sure that won't happen. I believe she is the last of the female bots that I need but I am not paying those crazy prices.

It seems exclusives are the worst sufferers of terrible distribution.

Re: Top 10 Worst Distributed Transformers

most of these were recent lines I would add right from G1 to present end of line , for example G1 micomaster autobot base and 2 of the 3 micromaster combiner transports,... to the last 4 packs of the robot heroes, exclusives that never ship here for example walgreens titans brainstorm ....among others....
