Possible Release Dates

Thanks! If you come accross any SKNs or UPCs that’d be awesome.

I checked at my store today and there seems to be a conundrum.. The upcs are in the system, but they’re coming up as “not on file”. I normally see that on stuff we’ll no longer be getting at the store.. Though, in this case it could mean the warehouse is not ready to send them yet. In any rate, I didn’t get any dates for them or what all we’re getting..

Anyone manage to check Walmart or Target systems, they received Power Rangers(made by Bandai) weeks, if not a month before TRU here.

I’d check Walmart (we don’t have Target here). But the Walmarts he are so horrible, terrible customer service and they don’t even get merchandise from Bandai anymore, I’d rather not bother.

Also VWchan, with what retailer you checking with? TRU?

Don’t get from Bandai? I still see Ben 10 toys at Wal-mart. o.O

The Walmarts here. Our Walmarts are special. They’re managed differently than those on the US mainland.

Damn typos. xD

oh ok. I misread. :slight_smile:

I’m checking the wal-mart I work at. Still nothing..

Darn…

I’ve emailed Bandai to see if they’ll give out the numbers. But I’ve emailed them before for Ben 10 related stuff..and they’re nothing impressive. -_-;

Where are the thundercats?!

Is it just me, or are they releasing these really late? Much closer to the debut of the show than usual, I’m a little worried that they’re not as confident in the lines probable success..

I have never heard of Bandai releasing toys before a cartoon in america. o.o

And no response yet. Bandai America..you’re horrible.

The release of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers line were almost two months before the remixed show premiered. Power Ranger Samurai figures were released a month before the series premiered. Not to go on a power ranger kick here, but they’re produced by Bandai. Both released well before the series premiere, here we are roughly two weeks before premiere and nothing..

The difference with power rangers is there’s a new show every year. Just like Transformers. Transformers can have a new toy line without even having a new show and people still want them. Kids will buy the new power rangers just because they like power rangers even if they don’t know those specific rangers because they’re all so similar to each other.

That may be, I wouldn’t compare them to Transformers though. It really is irrelevant as long as Bandai releases Thundercats in sufficent numbers. It just strikes me as odd, that is all.

Yeah I hope they make plenty of figures. I’m looking for a job atm and it would be heartbreaking if all the figures became hard to find before I got a chance to get them.

I don’t think they’ll be that hard to come by. Specially in Christmas when TRU starts opening 24 hours a day. Things cool down by 1 am, and that’s when all the goodies hit the floor. :wink:

closest Toys R Us to me is over an hour away. lol Best I can hope for is Wal-mart.

An hour?! I’m gonna be driving around all day to as many stores as I can. Also I live on third earth…

An hour is a lot when you’re not the one driving and you have to talk someone into it.
