I do not post any new pre-orders from either of those two. Too many problems.
Hasbro can't seem to properly fulfill their products meanwhile their crap has no problem hitting big box stores and on top of that they keep raising the price on their stuff to the point where you barely make any money on them anyways so why sell something that consistently causes you problems you make no money on?
For super7 they seem to be biting off more than they can chew. They're on wave 4 of the Simpsons line for example meanwhile wave 1 is still not out yet. That's setting up for a big problem down the road. I will re-evaluate super7's future releases once they start finally actually releasing some of their products. Maybe they're just being hit badly by the impact of covid on manufacturing and supply chains I don't know. They do make a good product though so I'm keeping an eye on it.
he's always blaming these companies. I do understand where he is coming from when it comes to hasbro, but with super 7, there is delay...but other stores already got their stock. He hasnt yet....my guess is he probably didnt even order it because he is like 3 waves behind compared to other stores.
I really doubt he'll fulfill all the other thundercats he has up for preorder...I doubt he even ordered those. I'm just gonna get what I can from his in-stock items...which is really slim pickings as is. sigh. My take away from his whole experience is never to preorder anymore, just buy an item when it's instock. sigh

Honestly it's a bunch of BS.
If it's NECA's ninja turtles stuff I understand because it's not just him but also other stores in Canada.
But Hasbro and Super 7 are usually pretty good. You can tell either he's lying or having his own problems when the same toys from Hasbro are arriving to other Canadian stores except him. No excuses for "NMC orders from the Canadian distributor, the others stores must be using a US distributor... doesn't even make sense"
Super 7 is a special case as their Ultimates line is made to order meaning that stores will get the exact amount they ordered for made. So no excuses there either. I know Super 7 is experiencing delays but you are asking for items that are in stock with other Canadian stores. Once again, just NMC that's having trouble so, doesn't look like Super 7 is the problem.
Even for Mcfarlane toys. NMC gets in their stock slower than other stores. Once again, I can't see how Mcfarlane toys experiencing troubles getting orders delivered to NMC but have no trouble with all other Canadian stores.
