Go hunt for toys Smoke. Never know when you might run across the panty bandit.

Nah, man, neither panties nor bandits are worth it. I'm half-assing it and trusting to the luck of the man who doesn't give a shit to see me through.

Why search for them? Don't you people OWN all of these already? They're just re-releases with new cards. Or is that the point?

My general feeling of the retro line is that Hasbro saw an opportunity to make some quick cash with some minor variations and repackaging of existing stuff. |

I'm happy for the folks who like these but I'm not a fan. I really like those 3 figs but I already own them, plus the extra large bubble ruins the aesthetic a little.

I'm betting the vehicles will be extremely hard to find. Although they were very plentiful online, I just have to think the shipping cases have only a few in them.

That's a nonsensical question. Why buy any of this shit? It's all stupid and unnecessary. Might as well ask why buy Classified when people already have those characters in a smaller, handier, less stupid-looking format. Or ask an army-builder why the fuck they buy the same toy over and over and over and over again. Adults buy kid's toys because...fucked if I know.

But I will keep poking on this issue. These 6" $20 collector lines are not kid's toys. They are too expensive, too fragile, and usually include characters or lines that kids probably haven't even heard of. They are much closer to figurines (which adults have always collected) than toys.

Great point. The vehicles definitely feel more retro than the figs.
