First Order Stormtrooper is Gone with the Wind

The First Order Stormtrooper went up at Hasbro Toy Shop at approximately 11:23 am EST.  I got a notification from twitter that +Yakface.com had tweeted the item was available, but it did not last long.

I had the site already pulled up, and I immediately reloaded the page, which took forever.  Once I finally got the Comic-Con exclusives page to load, the slow website wouldn't add the Stormtrooper to my cart.  I kept trying, and finally, attempted to go the product listing for the Stormtrooper.  I tried again, and when my cart finally popped up, it showed 3 of them in there.

In attempting to be a nice guy, since I was not planning to scalping two of them, I tried to remove the extra toys, but Hasbro site wouldn't load.  I kept trying, and I got one of the three changed from 1 to 0, but it wouldn't let me continue to checkout.  Finally, it said it was unavailable and that I should remove the product from my cart.

I guess if I would have just bought all three I could have got one, but unfortunately, since their website was way too slow, I did not get any.

The cheapest I have found one of these on eBay is over about $85.  Thanks Hasbro for having such a fantastic website.
