Distribution Is NOT Fixed

Because wave three has managed to get to some brick and mortar stores as reported here and on other sites, there is a sense that perennial distribution problems may be getting better.  But I think those reports are isolated and the exception.  The overshipping of the inaugural waves still plagues Hasbro as evidenced by this picture taken at Toys R Us today of not one, but TWO fresh cases of wave 1.  It is almost February.  This case is almost five months old, but it’s still working its way through distribution.
