Re: What do you want from TFS in 2011?
Agree totally about wanting better distribution.

Its become a vicious circle. Hasbro doesn't get much interest in lines like Generations and PCC, which are both rumoured to be cancelled in the UK, because people want the figures so much they import them. This means sites such as Kapow, Toyzandgamez etc sell lots of figures for higher than UK retail prices because fans desperately want the figures. When they are then released at retail sales are slow and so companys assume there is little interest. If there was much closer to US release schedules then fans would purchase more from retail. It also doesn't help that early waves of figures often have several unappealing repaints in them which retailers then struggle to shift. Then due to lack of interest retailers curtail lines and we often end up missing out on the end waves of lines containing much wanted figures.

So in summary. Less early wave repaints and better early distribution is what I hope for.

Its not going to happen, as its been the same way for years, but a TF fan can dream!

Oh and on the subject of dreaming..................................more animated! Wink
