Yeah - but it a problem of their own making.
They could solve this overnight if they wanted to. Fix their distribution channels, drop the crowd funding, which is tantamount to very high-end exclusives, level the prices, reduce the volume and make sure everyone can get everything they make.
Not sure if it is open yet, but last time I wandered through Battersea Power Station I saw that they (Hasbro) were opening a bricks and mortar Transformers store....perhaps Hasbro should look more widely at that (it works for Lego).
Anyway - the irony of course is that while I don't agree with HasLab - The ghost will be my second purchase, so that makes me a hypocrite
Tangent done - still looking forward to getting this, even if I never open it...

Well - I got my 'Haslab item has shipped' email today - very exciting. Now for the worrying part - since ordering it I have moved house, I did follow the less than well laid out instructions for changing the shipping address (a basic e-commerce feature for most digital retailers....) so fingers crossed it comes to the correct place......
