I think it skips a generation because, yes I do have kids. My dad and stepdads and uncles would be on the toilet for 30 minutes. Now my sons are on the toilet for 30 minutes. I don't have that kind of time.

I probably won't drop Joes. But...it angers me because I don't see a reason for them locking ME 3.75 figures overseas.
But it's not like I cant just order them on HLJ, AmiAmi, Hobbysearch, etc. I'm sure. Just irksome. It'd be like if TVC was suddenly ONLY available in Asia because Hasbro wants control of 3.75 Star Wars in America and will only put Retro stuff out here.

But they're already double-dipping here in the US with the S7 stuff on the shelves and the re-RAHs on Pulse. Why wouldn't they be smart enough to triple-dip?

Because they don't think there's a market for 3.75 ME here

From their perspective, the lukewarm performance of the Walmart ME figures might have convinced them that ME demand is still low (something they've thought since the 50th figures or even before).

I would guess it's just a few people like me who the Walmart ones brought back in. Most people probably already had their fill of ME for years. To the point that the only ones who haven't been satisfied in decades is the O-ring peeps. Which is fair.
If Hasbro doesn't want the $100+ I'm dropping per figure on Ebay, that's fine. I definitely thing O-ring is the hottest now. At least it seems that way to me when I sold my used damaged O-rings for 1k this weekend and couldn't sell ANY MEs that I didn't want! |

Collector's want quality. That Walmart line was crap. I'm sure some brand-new sculpts would sell very well on Hasbro Pulse.
