Re: Marvel Legends discussion

I don't mind Hasbro doing fan channel exclusives so that at least more than one retailer can offer the item... but man, I hope the days of TRU-only and Walmart-only exclusives are done. And Amazon too.

End single-retailer exclusives, that would be a right move for Hasbro after making a series of huge mistakes so far with pricing, quality control, and packaging.

That won't happen.

The retailers pay Hasbro to get the exclusives so it is an incentive for Hasbro to offer them up, and retailers still come looking for them.

Fan channel is my preferred method because it gives us all a chance to get them through a preorder. Hopefully there will be more of them going forward.

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

Ajak from Eternals was another recent Walmart exclusive that did show up there.

As for Doctor Strange, what I’ve heard is that the figures are at the Walmart Canada distribution centre, so they should be showing up at some point.

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

One question about that Walmart exclusive classic Dr. Strange...I heard in the U.S., it was an online exclusive only, not one you could buy at physical Walmart stores.

Is that going to be the same case here in Canada?

If so, my concern is that scalpers will snatch everything up in a matter of seconds with their online bot accounts.

I can only hope it would be like the 80th Anniversary Captain America, where it was available on the Walmart.ca website for quite some time before being sold out.

Re: Marvel Legends discussion

It is an online exclusive in the US, yes.
I checked when I was down there a month ago.
