This one will win, will be submitted, and a day or two before the answers come in, they'll start showing up in Canada.

FYI on the 2nd option, I recently attempted to contact Zellers regarding this matter. While the response was their typical it would point at this matter not being one at Hasbro's end.
Dear Editor,
Thank you for your email of November 9th, 2009 regarding prices are
completely out of range.
We would like to inform you that we are constantly assessing our pricing
on exclusives. At this point, we would welcome inputs such as these from
our customers as we continually review pricing.
Please feel free to contact Zellers Customer Service at 888-226-2225,
for any further assistance.
Your support of the Zellers is appreciated and I trust that we may be
able to continue serving you in our Hbc stores.
Regards,

ego, if you are pissed at their pricing, tell them.

True story. Hasbro can do a recommended MSRP, but past that the retailer can set whatever they want on it.

What sort of commitment to G.I. Joe have Canadian retailers made for 2010? Will it be similar to what we saw in 2009 with the movie line where we had just about everything available, or will it be?
For what it's worth the new "mod" at Cambridge Wal~Mart has a significantly reduced section for G.I. Joe. It had 2 pegs (there used to be 7) for movie single figures, a couple for Fast Action Battlers, one for the new Rip Attack Vehicles, and then shelf space for Alpha and Bravo vehicles.

Just to further what stealth viper said, in past Q&A's with Hasbro (can't remember if it was Joe or Star Wars, but either way it applies) if asked about pricing I'm pretty sure Hasbro just deflected the question by saying they don't set prices and that it's up to the retailers. So it would probably be a wasted question.

So it would probably be a wasted question.
To be blunt, and no disrespect to either the person who asked the question or those voting for it, as it is an issue that effects all of us, but the question will be wasted. Hasbro has stated in similar themed questions that the stores are the ones who set the end pricing. Also in the response I have from Zellers if it was an issue from Hasbro I'm sure they would have stated it outright rather than dance around their pricing structure.
If this is one of the questions the response will likely be, that while they work with the companies running exclusive and do what they can to make these items available to us, that the pricing is set by the retailers, and beyond their control.

If I may ask, which questions ended up being submitted to Hasbro and when are the answers expected?
