To clarify, by Hasbro direct, I mean through our local mom and pop stores through their distributors and not buying off Amazon and reselling.

Cuz I'm a friendly fellow who chats with the people in our local stores to find out if they're getting stuff in. And they're generally saying they need to confirm that they're guaranteed their allotment before they take orders.
Plus so far three Canadian online retailers have put up pre-orders for a Sept/Oct release date which suggests that they're all expecting something around then.
Also if word got out that they were buying and reselling off Amazon then there would be egg on their face and reputation is everything as we all know from NMC.
