I see your point, but I have to say...with the 25th anniversay line, I have been MUCH happier letting the scalpers do the dirty work. With one exception, I have never found any new figures in my area and my area has its own crew of the slime that are up every morning hitting the stores as they open.
Like I said, I like to army build. So I usually buy a few new off of ebay to "fill the void" and then I wait until my preorders come in. And to be honest, its pretty much the same cost to army build on ebay as it is with most online dealers. I love BBTS, but they'll have the vipers and Hiss drivers marked up for sure. I love GSTG even more, but they tend to be on the tail end of a wave's release when you order singles from them.
For me, the Hiss driver was absolutely one of my favorites as a kid. I carried him everywhere I went and they did a really good job with him, so I bid. $30 was my cut off point. Thanks to Hasbro messing up Marvel Legends, I now have more toy income to buy stuff like this.
