yeah...true. I just wanted to rant. It's when they buy more than one of each and they sell one and keep one. Buy what your going to keep and let someone else get the other. It wouldn't be such a big deal if there were tons of them making it to the stores. But that is not the case. I don't want to have to buy a hefty price for something I want just cause someone buys them all to scalp.
If you have an issue with that then your probably the one scapling the toys. It's just lame. That's all.

Ok i have an update for you all although it is still pretty lame. There are still about 60,000 of these things still being sent out to stores or sold via website. Now most stores now have there otl's which means there order to levels which are important because it shows how many ech store should keep on hand. Saying this i suspect more shipping being done by the end of the week. Remember people the majority of these have not been shipped(60,000). Be patient they are coming. Thanks all.

It just comes down to people selling things for more than they pay. Like if you get a figure out here from Target it's 7.99 plus 9.0% tax. So about 8.58 total. If you add gas on to that then you might just add another lets say 1.00. That makes most figures a whopping 9.58. Which is pretty dam crazy. You put a Pro tech case and your looking at like another 1.50. So now your looking at 11.00 dollars. What's up with the high pricing at Target? It's just down right amazing they can sell figs for that much. What happen to the days of 2.50 figs. Ahhhh....the days.
Anyways....back to Target Rattlers and Conquest. I went to my local Target today and of course nothing yet. Showing Zero stock across the board out here in Seattle- Bellevue. From what the employee said(don't think I believe her) they are not supposed to get any until the next reset a month from now. Which makes no sense. And of course, once she found out I was a collector she was completely rude. I hate exclusives....they should all be mail order. |

To the ones bitching about people buying more than one set just to keep one set and sale the rest.......you cant win.
I used to complain about this and complain till it hurt.......it seems no one feels you when you only want one. I agree with you but its best just to keep quiet. I also think you should be able to walk into a store at anytime of the day and find these instead of getting up at the crack of dawn just to beat some guys with no Jobs but Ebay. The Rattler should not have been an exclusive...it should have been in Mass retail........and this is coming from someone who passed on it a week ago. Hasbro knew damn well how hard this would be to get.........yes I know they "Listen" to us but out of all the Things Joe this should be one of the things sold at Walmart...Target....TRU.....hell where ever each and everyone of us buy Joes.... More then likely they will rerelease this sometime next year but in orange or pink........ Anyway just dont worry about it because you will never win the argument even though it sucks. |

And I agree. What's wrong with a pink Rattler and a Orange Conquest? Bring back the 80's. |
