I don't think its going to go down in value that drastically.. I mean if there was about 100-150 available on BBTS.. that doesnt necessarily kill the market..

Who wants 1 still. I can cancel my order for whoever wants one. I ordered 1 early and can still cancel. It should be a un sub par standard blah blah whatever. Let me know!

instead of canceling the order and potentially letting someone else besides a tanker get it, you can always just make a deal to ship it to them afterwards

Might sound a bit "scalper-ish", but trust me I am not. I believe in collecting toys, you have to have pieces that are above regular worth, that's how people trade and become excited and talk and keep the hobby thriving. Can you imagine if they made 1 million of everything and no figure was worth more than $5.00? Would be boring and nobody would have a "pride" in their collection because everyone would have everything.
Just a bit dissapointed, not because the people that didn't get one finally did, but as a collector. You want pride in your collection, vintage is the only way to go. Current release figures I have no pride in, because there's no challenge. Even if these 100 wraiths didn't come out, you had nothing special there with your wraiths. They're always on ebay and are definately not rare. But say you have a gold head steel brigade. That is a rough figure to get in excellent condition. If Hasbro were to reproduce those in exact condition (well they couldn't do to plastics quality, etc) then you have an argument. Examples of the Manimals release, the He-Man commemorative series, etc are good instances of devaluing a vintage piece. But complaining about an on the pegs figure with high demand being made more available? Silliness and hubris in believing what you have was that valuable to begin with. |

well, vintage joes have decreased a lot in value since the 25th came out.
