Poll: Would you join an Army builder Club

Here is an idea that has been eating away at me for a few weeks now:

Would you join a Hasbro army builder Club. Basically you pay a small yearly fee and hasbro will make plain white boxes filled with a set of troop builders. Say 10 Bats for 40 or 50 $ .

I think it would make it easier on army builders to obtain multiples of figures. Hasbro would benefit in a few ways, the yearly fee, the happiness of their loyal customers, and the massive armies that will be built and shown off around the world.It would also make more singles available at retail for children and other buyers.

WHy should scalpers get to make hasbros profits. Hasbro can still release the singles and all of the other types of figures. THis would be strictly for dedicated army builders. It is just an idea i had recently. Any input would be appreciated. Maybe its a bad idea, I dont know. Thats why i would like your feedback. thanks

i voted "Yes" based on what you gave as an example of what the club would offer. if what the club offered differed greatly from your example, though, i would have to reconsider. i can't off the top of my head think of a specific way that it could differ too much from your example, but i'm sure hasbro could come up with something.

It would bother me if they did this but instead of the general release of the army builder, they used a repaint. I would want this to be the same figure as the single release, just in bulk without packaging.

Well, there was a time when the Star Wars shop used to sell army builder sets and they came packaged exactly as you described. I seem to recall there were Stormtrooper, Sandtrooper, Rebel Fleet Trooper, and Rebel Endor Trooper sets which came with 4 figures and weapons in baggies inside a white cardboard box for like $19.99. The best set was the Sandtrooper one because the 4 figures all had different shoulder pauldrons.

no doubt. it would make things a lot easier for me, and I could avoid the scalpers in my area.
