The Force Awakens/TBS6 Lineup: Too Much Too Late Now?

Posted by Paul | April 02, 2016 at 11:40 PM ET

As Star Wars collectors, Hasbro can rarely make us happy all of the time. That's a given. But I don't even think they can deny that Force Friday didn't go as planned. We're not going to beat up on them about that. But now if you go to Toys R Us, TARGET and Walmart, you'll find that wave 3 of The Black Series [Phase III] 6" line is clogging the shelves. Now, my area was one that has received next to nothing of ANY The Force Awakens products (especially in comparison to the mid and south West and New England areas) and even Philly is swimming in these figures now. Captain Phasma can be found everywhere. Even the Walmart exclusive 3.75" line (wave 3) has been overstocked to the point of not even fitting in the allotted spaces it's been granted. These quantities should have been available on September 4th, not April 2015. I wonder if the newest products will even find their way to my areas now because I don't foresee this old product moving out to make room for the truly new stuff. Hopefully The Force Awakens DVD/Blu-ray release will bring some toy buyers into stores again, because right now I don't see much of the line moving at all.... whether they're just peg-warmers or actually new and hot products.
