I am so envious the white looks nice also, but I think the blue is still the better one since its accurate to the animation. This month budget is blown if not I sure order one. But now no more even from HLJ . My fren going to Japan, maybe I ask her to look for me.... WHat is a famous place to search for it in Tokyo? Akihabara is it?




Scout report...... another one of the hypermarkets still got stock..... brawl, swindle and scorponok berlambak!! Bonecrusher only left 2.... time was 3-4pm today.

Defintely Spark Blue, but beggars can't be choosers so I'll take the whiteone if dun have choice. I ask my fren to find in Japan, hope can get... together with rumble and frenzy earphones!! Gotto save money and pray hard now.

Re- Hasbro - i think this phenomenon is localised in a few countries only. And I don't think it is Hasbro's strategy to sell a bit, then see response.... then release again. Hasbro would have made a survey based on its past sales of other movie toy lines like Spiderman, Fantastic Four etc and then adjust manufacturing accordingly. Each country then submits a stock request to the factory based on projected demand/sales. I guess Hasbro Malaysia underestimated the effect of the movie, before movie can find berlambak everywhere, after movie nowhere to be found... the recent restocks also Gone in 60 seconds!!

I go to Bangkok for work quite often, the Transformers Toys berlambak but got many more choices. But I don't buy here because the retail prices here are at least 30% more than Malaysia. It was also reported that HK and SG berlambak.

So the culprit is...... Hasbro Malaysia for not doing proper sales projection!! Should have emplyed a proper market surveyer that interview the Transformers junkies like in this thread!!!

Added on July 27, 2007, 12:09 pmJust want to add to the Bangkok Transformers topic, although sales is slow, but it is picking up the last week. When the movie started, no one touch or layan the Transformers shelves, there were hundreds (berlambak) BB74,jazz. swindle, ironhide.. etc on the shelves, Now only left a handful, like 5 of each. But if this was Malaysia, that wouldn't last 1 hour.
