Who would buy a uss flagg???

Just wondering how many of us would actually buy a USS FLAGG if Hasbro decided to make one for the newer 25th Anniv. version figures? The original cost $89.99, and if you adjust the price difference according to the price of the current and previous Rattler(orig. $9.99, current $24.99) a new USS FLAGG would be $225.00. Alot of money, but maybe the new improvements they have added on some newer vehicles would make it worth it. I'd like to see them add extra figures, of course Admiral Keel Haul, a better Cutter, maybe some deck hands and those guys who guide the planes with the little stick thingies. Some extra greenshirts would be cool too, so they can be blown overboard by a fleet of Rattlers. Oh yeah, it should also be able to float in water(if it cost that much, why not?)

People would buy them, and then whine about how the stickers suck, or how it's not the original color.
=P

I can honestly say without a shadow of a doubt I would buy at least 1, 2 if I could come up with enough money. $225 for a factory complete flagg. Who wouldn't buy one, unless you already have a minty one. I'm sure even some non joe fans couldnt pass up the oppourtunity to get 1 at that price. But that is a huge risk for Hasbro to take, as we have seen with many things in the joe line. Collectors will cry and ask for things, say they will buy 10-20 of them and when they do make them they sit on the shelf 4 ever. Its a nice dream but it will never happen, unless they can do some kind of pre pay order and once they have the commited amount of orders/money then make them. So like I said it will never happen.

why not just do it exclusively on the internet or something that would keep costs down, to me they are just way too big and all my friends would make fun of me too much, i secretly want one though

The price alone will keep this from being made. We can all dream that it might happen but it won't.

Count me out.

I *LOVE* this stuff but the Flagg is just too huge for me and for many collectors I would assume.

I know this has been brought up before but look at the Millenium Falcon... SW has a huge following and makes GI Joe look like ants next to it. They arent having the easiest time selling the $150 Falcon even though its an excellent piece.
