SDCC Destro's, Yellow Stalker, Piper, Black Timber SE were all produced in limited numbers, POTF wasn't, it was over-produced.

Snake Eyes with black Timber, yellow Stalker, and shark tattoo Shipwreck (as well as the whole diaper crotch vs. fixed crotch variations) remind me of the whole long saber/short saber variation fiasco with the POTF2 collection. I also want to mention the frustration I had with all of the card combinations that had to do with the card color, holograms, and bubble changes. POTF2 figures have made me hate variations, they are so annoying. I wish Hasbro made the figures one way and left them. Fix the errors before they leave the warehouse so that we don't need changes. Variations such as Marvel Legends with different costumes are fine though. Exclusives like SDCC gold Pimp Daddy Destro reminds me of the theater edition Luke Skywalker Jedi Knight figures. At one time they were over $100, but now you could get one on ebay using "Buy It Now" for $12.95. Who really knows their fate? This also reminds me of 1987 and 1988 Topps baseball cards because they were way over produced. I have tons of these collecting dust along with my POTF2 collection. The demand for these items has gone and left the building. |

LOL Scoop! you perfectly understand my point.
i hear you. i had the long-saber variants, the "tan-vested" jedi Luke, all the variants. i even had the film slide ones, and the red card first runs of those 5 that were slated for the green cards. I even remember that theatre Luke that was going for over $100.00. i sold 42 MOC POTF II figures(and the cards were mint!!) for about $49.00. that's about a dollar a figure. what a complete waste of time & money. i swore i would never do it again, now look. Hasbro, i hate you. swafus that link is busted, i think. Last edited by OUTBACK; 02-11-2008 at 12:05 AM.. |

Hasbro, i hate you. I stayed away from the variations so far during the 25th Joe line. I even prefer the non variations in looks. For instance I still need a Shipwreck from Wave 3, but I rather have the anchor tattoo than the shark variant. Now they made another variation by removing the anchor off of his belt, which I hate, so hopefully I can still find the Shipwreck with both anchors one day. |

I remember finding a POTF Luke on speeder with two flesh hands, instead of one being black gloved.
Bought it for cost at the mall, sold it on eBay a few years later for like $4 bucks more. There is a definate window of opportunity for this stuff... but as you can see in the linked auctions above... no one has bid on them. So they may have missed their window.
