Glut of Pokemon? Not Here

 

If there is a huge supply of 30^th Anniversary Pokemon boxes and Elite Trainer Kits floating around out there, we sure have not seen it (See “Pokemon TCG Sellers Melt Down on Discord”). I have no doubt it is out there but I also figure the Pokemon Company is directing most of the product to mass market stores. We have had customers regale us with tales of standing in line at Target at 7 a.m., waiting until the store opened to join the crowds of collectors and resellers hoping to grab a box or fifteen of the Pokemon 30^th Anniversary Elite Trainer Kits. Another customer told us how she and her family waited in a line a block long at the local Sam’s Club to get Elite Trainer Kits. Even with the staff at Sam’s Club limiting purchasers to 2 Kits each, they ran out about 5 people before my customer could purchase any. Meanwhile hobby game stores are getting so heavily allocated that one distributor got the store one 30^th Anniversary Elite Trainer Kit.  Not one case of Kits, one Kit, along with single units of a couple of other 30^th Anniversary items.  Meanwhile, Sam’s Club gets enough Elite Trainer Kits to offer two of them to each person in a line stretching a block long.

Distribution Problems

 Distribution problems with Wizards and Magic have just exacerbated (See “Reality Fracture Shipping  Times Fractured”).  Unlike with the Hobbit, I did not read of any stores not getting prize Play boosters for Reality Fracture in time for the pre-release.  However, the delivery window for pre-release kits was the shortest I can remember.  Typically, kits arrived 1-3 days before pre-release Friday. With Reality Fracture, our pre-release kits did not arrive from UPS until about 1 p.m. on Friday and I read of stores whose kits were delivered 10 minutes before the store had scheduled the start of their first pre-release. Based on UPS tracking I was unsure as to whether our kits would arrive on time for our pre-release weekend.

I hope Hasbro and Wizards are taking a hard look at their supply chain problems and that the oversupply of Pokemon 30^th Anniversary product makes it to hobby game stores, which based on the calls we have had at the store and comments online, could certainly sell them.
