The HISS Scout and Cycle Armour on the way to Zellers!
« on: June 28, 2011, 02:13:49 PM »
Just got word from Hasbro Canada that due to the fan outpouring and feedback on these units, Zellers has stepped up to the plate and ordered them!

That's right - The HISS Scout and Cycle Armour have left Hasbro's warehouses and are en route to a Zellers near you! Look for them to arrive within the next little while.

So, we said our piece, and Hasbro and Zellers listened. Now it's up to us to show them that it was a good decision by getting out there and buying this stock up!

Good to hear!  But as usual, pricing will determine whether we buy many of these or not, not the fact that they have it...

Indeed. Hasbro has no control over the actual price, they just have an MSRP. I've inquired as to if the price point is known yet.

Surely it'll be a better price than the "$30 for a figure and small vehicle" packs... right? :shifty:

I would expect it will be the same price as their other Alphas - hopefully I will get an answer, otherwise we'll know soon enough when they hit the shelves.

This is great, it makes me feel lots better about not winning them in the raffle. I'll get a HISS scout for sure. Maybe more if the price is good. Pricing should be okay. That 30$ series was an exception, I hope.

Which is exactly why they'll do okay in Canada, if the price is reasonable. There should be enough demand from our friends down south to fuel the demand from zellers at least for a little while. The ebay prices should come down and then demand will slow, but hopefully there will be enough to go around and not too many for Zellers to get stuck with a bunch after the initial frenzy.

I have zero interest in these vehicles, but great news for those that want them. :)

I'm glad everyone will get a crack at these.
