I was just thinking today that it is not always great to live in or near a large city when it comes to collectibles. I have been waiting for my local "authorized dealer" to receive ANY of the new summer releases. As of this date 3 local dealers have not received any new items in the past 3 months. All are in the Detroit Mi. area.

However several weeks ago while on vacation in the north of Mi. I found a total of 5 "authorized dealers" and other small stores that carry HL items and 3 of these stores had ALL of the latest releases. These stores are in very small cities. I guess I need to get out of the big city more often or move closer to these places.

(I did not buy any of the new items because I found several retired pieces I wanted more. A trade off which I can live with.)

I was just curious about shipping priorities to dealers. A wondering mind with no place to wander.
