Thinking Out Loud: As I scroll social seeing ALL of the new photos hitting the reels, groups, and the gram - I am laughing at some of the commentary seen.

All of the --- they are NOT real --- comments when presented with photos of the actual products. How some of today's photos were taken and shared on TikTok in comments from inside a CAR? I don't know. (shrugs). That spinning thing didn't jump out of a shipping box --- zip across a parking lot and land next to the rear-view mirror inside the car on its own for today's photo shoot. HA HA.

All of the comments from customers who wrote that after reading Reddit, they went to their stores and asked when these things are coming --- and of course -- were told, "we don't know anything about this" (when we all do know they do, and they cannot say --- so, I mean...stop asking?)

Whatever is coming, will be here soon enough, because the stock is hitting stores --- hence the leakage.

As for the main question everyone wants to have answered after seeing the photos on social --- I am reminded how this famous line from the "Implant" episode of the sit-com Seinfeld sums it all up nicely:

"They're Real and They're SPECTACULAR!"

Thinking Out Loud: I knew that the info was on the SAS papers, briefly. The same thing happened with the Stranger Things collab candle releases. All of those pages with all of the info of the comings and goings ... it is bound to happen people figure out what is what. I am sure the other releases are there as well. I heard of one 8 months ago that is still not talked about. 😯

Stores need customers. Customers get excited and ask questions. The brand has a huge fan base that discusses everything about everything on social, which keeps them coming back to the stores wanting more. Workers get sick of customers behavior and say as much on social. Customers don't like feeling like they are being lied to. Workers are bound to secrecy.

Nothing...ever stays a secret.
