Not that I get a lot of 25th stuff, but it irks me that you can't find more than one or two packages of new stuff in the stores (If You're lucky enough to find that!) and on HasbroToyShop.com the stuff goes from "Coming Soon" to "not in Stock" Even if I wanted to collect this stuff, how could I? The only way is through online retailers or eBay scalpers. Hasbro is too busy looking for a new cash cow/windfall line to be bothered with the line that made it famous.
They don't care about collectors or regular consumers. they care about squeezing every penny until it bleeds. They only put out enough product to make sure they sell ALL OF IT and screw the consumers. And they allow the big three to dictate what is offered. I understand the purpose in business it to make money, but they are SOOOO overly cautious about not taking risks they are killing the profits they could make on the collectors side of things! Why don't they offer stuff on HTS a little more liberally?
