ToyFarce News: Another Year, Another NECA Haulathon Prematurely Spoiled by Target!

[ToyFarce]

It's that time of the year again: the announcements for the Haulathon haven't been made yet by NECA, yet the end caps at various Target stores are already full of new figures a week early! Yay for street dates! And of course, half of it is already on eBay... So what happened exactly? ToyFarce investigated.

As announced on the promo pic, the NECA Haulathon is supposed to start on February 26th in Target stores, and on March 3rd for online and international purchases. New products should drop every Friday. That is, of course, unless your Target has already put everything out before the event started...

We sat down with Kyle, a 22 year old Target employee from New Jersey, to ask why they can't just keep the toys in the boxes until the official starting date of the NECA Haulathon event: "Oh, is there an event? Yeah, we don't really care... We get products, we put them on the shelves". Great. NECA Haulathon? More like NECA Haul-@$#-thon! (Yep, that's a joke from last year).

More news at 11:00... Hey, at least, the Canuck Curator is back!

There should be a series of honest event trailers like the ones on youtube with movies.

And the "Yeah, we don't really care-A-Thon" title sounds terrific.
