Your argument is that we should just keep our collective mouths shut because there is nothing that can be done about distribution.
No, it's not. My argument is that the distribution of wave 3 and on is pointless to fuss about because wave 3 and on is not available yet TO be distributed. Your complaint was that new product wasn't on the shelves. My response was about that specific subject as to WHY you aren't seeing new product on the shelves. I said nothing about distribution as a whole or anything about any other lines either. Like I said, re-read my post as a whole. By picking out one line and responding to it out of context, you're putting words in my mouth.
Even if my post WAS in the context that you inferred, my argument has NEVER been that nothing can be done about distribution. My argument is that HASBRO can't do much about distribution because they do not control it. Hasbro doesn't send a truck to your local Wal-Mart and such full of Hasbro products. If you want something to be done about distribution, that falls on the retailers. Talk to your store managers. Talk to the district managers. Talk to the DCs. Talk to corporate. Those are the people your complaints should be going to. Hasbro can pick up the phone and call some people and say "Hey, it'd be really great if you could get our product to your stores a little quicker. We would really appreciate it. Thanks!" but it will still be up to the retailer chains to actually follow through with that.
