So, I keep seeing Resolute Snake Eyes on eBay for $250. Sorry, I like it but it's not worth what I pay for my half of the rent.
I'd like to think by seeing that, and a few other Resolute prototypes, that they'd be right around the corner. I mean... they wouldn't have a good handful of them floating around... would they? How does this happen, anyway? I keep hearing things like this: "After ROC fails hard, and they squeeze every dime they can out of the movie hype, they'll bring Resolute figures to the shelves before Christmas." "They'll probably issue a 7-Pack or some Comic packs instead of single-carded figures." My logic: 1- Transformers didn't quit making other 'bots when the movie came out. It was just more movie stuff than the others... but it was still there. 2- Wolverine: Origins sat on the shelves with both movie and comic figures. 3- 25th/ARAH figs are still on the shelf, and as far as I understand- will be for some time. So, is there an answer, speculation, or what? Gimme at least a number from 1-10 on the likelyhood! (1- It's in the works and on the way, 10- They will never arrive and Hasbro denies all knowlege of anything "Resolute", instead encouraging us to enjoy spring-loaded movie toys FOREVER) |

Definitely after ROC on the shelves as per Hasbro's Q&A's answers. think 2010; or we get lucky and get a 5 or 7pk with the dvd release of resolute-- whenever that would be. 2010?

5 it may happen it may not.no one really knows except hasbro. I am of the opinion that the Resolute figures we have seen will make it out to retail in due time just be patient it is not worth $250.if you buy it you will be kicking yourself later when he hits retail for a fraction of the price.

those figures are all going to hit the shelves under the ROC banner during its run. I'd give my prediction an 8. Hasbro didn't make these molds to sit on them, and by next year it will be too late to start releasing toys under the Resolute banner. the only sensible thing to do is utilize them like all the 25th/ME molds they are doing in the ROC line.

Of all the figures unreleased, I thought Snake Eyes was a definite for the future. In fact, the only ones Hasbro wouldn't commit to in the last Q&A were Roadblock and Destro. They're selling for $30+? but considerably less than Snake Eyes who you can almost guarantee will see store pegs sometime in the next year or so.

You pay $250 for your half of the rent? Is that per month? If that is the case and it's $500 a month for the whole place, what exactly does that $500 get someone down there in Georgia. I'm lucky if I can find a closet for $500 here in New York City.

he'll be out sooner or later, just be patient. Just imagine you can buy 25+ snake-eyes later with that $250 you saved today.
