It can take a year plus to design, test and manufacture toys. Even a rushed wave can take over 6 months to go from planning to production. Once they saw what the market could support, they knew what they could go ahead with. From my understanding, at SDCC, they told our site owner that since the initial toys sold so well, that it has given them a greater freedom for next years releases.
That's not true. We have TC in our Targets.
