And the prices of those figures on ebay are not that much more than the annual subscription (at least for me, who would have to get the International Subscription plan).
So, in my case, should I pay the USD 90+ for the subs or should I use that money to get the figs on ebay?
Also, are the other things the subs gives you worth it?
If all you are after is the free figure every year then no, not in your particular case.
Being a club member benefits those who attend the convention the most. Otherwise you really dont save a lot on purchases (shipping)
Unless you plan to get a figure subscription There are not many benefits to being a club member.
There is the free newsletter every month, but in the day of the internet it is usually out of date info.
There used to be club forums but those have been down since all the technological problems the club has had.
If you are going to a convention however the club is a good deal, you get decent discounts compared to nonmember prices.
