First of all, sorry if this is in the wrong location.
i have a question regarding the new halo mega bloks line that is out in th US, does anyone know if or when that line is coming to the UK as the only place I have found it is on Amazon.
the last pack sets we had where Delta and the last boxed set we had was the one containing the sniper tower.
We have no halo wars 2 stuff what so ever.
Also there are a good few sets that are target or US exclusives is there anyway that can stop as most of us cannot afford the massive tax and handling prices for buying something from US.
Thanks.
I don’t live in the UK, nor do I know terribly much about how toy marketing works, so I’m not sure how helpful I’d be, but I’ll try.
You still got some of the older sets in the UK, correct? If that was the case, then you should get the newer sets eventually, though it may be a while.
Exclusives likely will not stop being a thing due to the fact that seem to like to have an exclusive toy/set or two to attract customers. Do you know if any retailers in the UK have ever carried exclusive sets before? I know with Transformers, a figure or set of figures that is exclusive to a certain store in the US will typically be exclusive to a different store found in the UK, but I’m not sure if Mattel does that with their lines.
Thanks for replying.
yes we have most of the older sets so I guess it may be a case of wait and see.
No unfortunately there is no shop ( at least that I am aware of ) that does certain US exclusives ( like the target ones )

Hm. I just looked at the Mega Bloks UK website, and it’s labeled all of the newer sets as “Not available in your country.” That does seem rather unfortunate. Seems like a horrible marketing strategy as well. I’d assume that’s just temporary, and that retailers will eventually receive them, because that just doesn’t seem right at all. Why would they cut off what I assume is a fairly large source of profit?

Oh I hope thats just a temp thing. If not that would really suck and also be a very bad marketing decision.
