I have been a mentor for 12 seasons and for that time will say that FIRST HQ has almost without fail poorly forecast the game object availability to teams in a reasonable time. This is solely on FIRST HQ and not the folks who support them logistically like our friends at AM.

At least we haven't had a major screw up in providing an actual game object since 2004 when the balls we were sold for practice were completely different from the real game object.

I don't know but I would put 2009 out there using a game piece which was discontinued by the mfg and being closed out by the single retailer as a bad example. But yes, I agree this is all on FIRST HQ not any sub-suppliers or distributors.
