Scaleface brought to our attention that San Diego Comic Con exclusive Alternator Rodimus no longer appears on Hasbro Toy Shop at all.
When he had sold out, the entry for the product still remained, albeit with an Out of Stock tag next to it. It was rumored that at different times he came back 'In Stock', but was just as quickly out of stock. But now there is no listing at all. For those hoping that a future re-stock would come, it appears, unfortunately that it is not likely to happen.
You should also note that the Exclusive GI Joe Destro product entry has also been removed, and it was having similar results to the Alternators Rodimus, many folks were still hoping to nab one of those too, and had seen it come and go as being 'In Stock' then out of stock.
Of note: The highly under-rated Titanium Menasor is still available, as is the Star Wars Hot Selling McQuarrie styled Yoda and Obi Wan two pack. Marvel Legends fans can still nab Stan Lee, and She Hulk too!
It looks like eBay is your best option now if you still want either of those two awesome comic convention exclusives.
Keep a vigilant eye on the Seibertron.com Toy News folks, as we try to keep you updated on the latest news on your favorite exclusives.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Thank you for saving me the time to type the same things. I would put in my own two cents but i dont think my post would stay very long due to the language. But i will says this FRAK YOU HASBRO!!!! KISS MY SHINY METAL ASS!!!! I know hate hasbro more that i ever have. Im even more pissed because there are TF coming out that i want so i cant do any thing about this. Either i buy the TFs i want and hasbro wins or i dont buy them and my collection stops growing and my strike dosent hurt hasbro in any kind of way. What i do hope is that all the scalpers out there on ebay that are selling these for those bullshit prices wind up getting robbed or go blind or something. The one figure that i really wanted and i get fraked once again. Thats it im done. I wont take up any more time with my rant.

Anyway, Rodimus will also be stuck in it's bubble, but only because I already have the Kiss Players version, and i can't justify opening it being the only difference is a few flamed surfaces. I kind of want to sell it, but kind of don't want to.. know what I mean?

I'm not really all that bummed about Destro. I wouldn't mind having gold helmet... Problem is I think this was gold on red when I'd rather it be gold on black, since that's how I remember it being.
I've already bought R2-KT (one of the other SW figures launched at ComiCon. I dunno how interested I am in Menasor. A little surprised that they did a figure for Stan Lee, but not so much by the FF costume She-Hulk.

I preordered the Mac Obi Wan and Yodat two pack
The only reason I haven't gotten Titanium Menasor is because of lack of funds
I possibly might get it my next paycheck

It's actually got a different head than Mirage did. Don't feel like I'm missing out by not getting this one, but I'm a fan of the Rodimus character.

There's a ton of eBay buyouts around $36. It's a bit more than Hasbro but they are still available.

And no I never got one so I am one of the peeps who wanted him but could not get him b/c of the stupid limited supply and the fact MOFO scalpers and hoarders cleaned him out. F*cking great.
And on that note, bHasb-blow bring more ALTS out or at least reissue them! Why the hell are they stopping the line?!!

Weak sales figures. Some waves would fly off the shelves, but others would just sit there forever.

Exactly, and they appeal more to the collector market, not as many little kids are able to buy $20 toys.

Better link for Menasor. Teh one in the news is busted There he is.
As far as the up/downs, I picture something like This in the Hasbro shop, opening the boxes of leftover souviners thay expressed back to wherever:
"Well, that's Roddy. Let's see about shirts."
---time---
"okay. Hey, tthere's a couple more Rodimuses in this box!"
"Great then let's put them up.
---time---
Wadda ya lnow. Another one wrpeed in a t-shirt.
---time---
We seem to have slipped a few into the menasor box for holding the bottom.
We need to sell them."
---time---
That's it. No more boxes."
"Too bad." Okay. Tell the web people to take his listing down when they sell out then.
end fic
