How can Hasbro Canada not know about this? Is there no communication between the US and Canadian businesses about the same products? Hasbro Canada should go and order a whole bunch to be released here. Then at least we'd have a few more vehicles to choose from.
Hasbro Canada is to Hasbro USA like Walmart or Toys R Us is.
Hasbro USA produces a product, and Walmart/TRU/Hasbro Canada have the opportunity to put an order in to get said product.
Back when this wave was first canceled, it was because Walmart/TRU/Target etc were not interested. Hasbro Canada had a chance at that point to order, but didn't - because Zellers/Walmart/TRU here are still sitting on wave 1 vehicles.
So the wave was canceled.
Now, to recoup costs, Hasbro USA is offering it to etailers, providing etailers import it themselves. As Hasbro USA is not distributing it, it is not even offered to Walmart/TRU/Target/Hasbro Canada.
That's just how it works.
