As I said in the comments the trolls and man baby tear drops are going to hate ole boy for being rationale and making sense.

As usual, I'll bet most of this is just tantrum posturing. How many clowns said the same thing about the ME line when they couldn't score a SDCC Ex Slaughter?

I wanted Serpentor. I was lucky to be able to pre-order him at Gamestop in Canada. When I missed the SDCC Slaughter, I told myself he looked crappy and made my own. I did eventually get the mail in deco version but really wanted the Teiple T one. After over 2 years, I finally got lucky and traded someone on the Hisstank to get him. So if you miss out, make your own or be patient and wait for the right person to come and help out.

As someone who missed out on Serpentor, I agree with everything he said. I find exclusives to be tedious because it's hard to find them on shelf, but I'll live if I don't get those figures right away. If nothing else I get the figures off of eBay or I'll find them resold in a local collectibles shop which is how I got my Cobra Island figures. If that's the only Serpentor we're getting I'll order it off of eBay, but if there is another on the horizon I'll check it out. Given how quickly Serpentor sold out, I'd say there are definitely more of him on the horizon.

Someone on a Transformers Podcast said a quote I use a lot.
"You must avoid loving something so much that you hate eveything about it." Thats what the toy community has become far to often these last few years.

I got lucky and got Serpentor right as they went live on the non-premium listing, admittedly i had no interest in getting him, as i pre-ordered Dr. Mindbender then cancelled him, but the more i watched the joe presentation about Serpentor the more i liked the figure, now, if i had not gotten it, I would have been fine, this complaining about it is sad, its a toy, there are many toys I would like to have but cant due to availablity or cost, i dont get upset about it.

The Crimson BAT showed up for pre-order every where shortly after Pulsecon ended, I got an email from BBTS 5 minutes after everything ended with pre-order for all the joes except Serpentor, they are are on dorksidetoys among other places.

Several people who have complained about not getting Serptentor and said they were done with Classified have been "done with Classified and selling everything" multiple times since they joined the forum.

they have to be like me, and be done with classified when they found out it was a 6" modern sculpt line.
and done with the o-ring line for the numerous reasons i have said before. because that's the way to be. quite frankly, if hasbro didnt have the star wars license for the vintage colleciton i would be totally done with hasbro all together, short of the few stocks i hold of it that just kind of languish. |
