American companies are as bad as Japanese companies when it comes to ignoring the international market.

Those of us in Japan or South Africa are naturally excluded, but when collectors in the US start calling them "eBay exclusives," you know there's a problem with the distribution system itself. 🤨

 

The problem is Target, Walmart and Walgreens don’t give a frakk how things are distributed.  They’ll pile figures up in a few towns and completely ignore the rest of the country.  Last year Walmart sent so many of the exclusive Black Widow to Atlanta they had HUNDREDS of them all marked down to $7.  Meanwhile, not a single frakking one ever showed up in NM.  Hasbro gets paid for their lot so they don’t care after that and apparently some bean counters at the stores are just fine pushing to only certain places and Hasbro will not listen.

Man that's retarded. They should make them available via Amazon, then anyone on the planet can get them.

Wow, that is slow.  Why can't an international company like Hasbro get these things out quicker to people?

HasLab sent out an email weeks ago saying that shipments have been slow to a Covid related delays. As long as they arrive in good condition I will be happy.

Stealth Iron Man. Still remember reading the comic back in the day when Stark first used this armour.

It's a good figure but my first exposure to it was when he used a version of the Stealth suit when he had his Silver Centaurian armor.  It looks weird to me without the pointy shoulder pads although I know the first version was in a suit more like this one.  Come to think of it the 90's Iron Man cartoon had a version of the Stealth suit but it was also based more on the Silver Centaurian look too.
