Yep... it's a financial/business strategy. Waves with exclusive figures sell WAY better than ones that don't. With the very small numbers we do, we need something to anchor the wave. I know folks dont love it , but it helps us get the figures made.

So I'm assuming the answer is financial/business strategy, but why are those figures held back, and why are there figures in the bbts waves that can't be ordered single, is it to push people into ordering the whole wave? I have seen easily half a dozen or more figures I would buy straight up but I have no interest in dropping $160+ for one figure since I don't have the others and don't expect to resell them with ease. Am I missing something or is it just a got catch em all / blind bag kind of business strat?

The honesty is appreciated, but, at least with me, and from a similarly honesty-based perspective, this cost you a few sales. Hopefully it wound up being a net positive (I have seven or eight figures on pre-order, but just not full waves).

I’m disappointed that we have not gotten a 24 hour left update. I’d like to know where they stand.

They don't offer Lowtide separately on BBTS, wave only exclusive?

Either that or they are really close to the last update and no one bought any gold figures. |

It's Sunday so I figure they'll update it tomorrow.

The latest FB post by FM talked about the final push with a final update tomorrow night. The best part was that they said BBTS may push a few over if they think they’ll sell.

That’s great news if that happens. I’ll just be 4 figures away from having modern renditions of the original 18.
