I think it has to do with increased inflation, sky rocketing gas prices chewing up disposable income. Couple that with increased prices from hasbro while also reducing what those prices give and you created a situation where its very easy to pass on figures.
Since WFC did so well distributors will be ordering the next similar line (legacy) in masse hoping it will be just as successful. They mentioned in the Fan First friday that the purchase order requests were higher for legacy than WFC... and its in Hasbro financial interest to provide less value while flying on the back of a successful toyline.
