I'm a huge fan of the Classified product, but I'm not simply enough of a fan to spend several thousand dollars to attend a conference like SDCC. Hopefully there is a way to get these, even if they are limited.

All those accessories seem deluxe to me. But the regular release probably doesn't have them so...what is deluxe about the regular Mindbender release?
Is it just a case of "Look, Boba Fett has accessories like HIS HELMET and HIS JETPACK so we have to up the price" bullshit? So, look, "Mindbender has a cape! $41.99 please!" |

I'm still not a fan of Mindbender being properly slotted as a Deluxe. I think he actually would make sense at that Kamakura price point since there are quite a few new nice looking pieces.
Last year's Zartan seemed much more worth it not just because of accessories count but also that color change feature. |

The accessories don't make Mindbender a must buy in deluxe form. I just hope a non-deluxe version is soon available. I hate exclusives but understand why they do it.

...though I'll probly still buy one if I'm online the day it goes up, because I'm a sucker for this sort of thing. Lol |

Yeahhhhh, this is really really really going to annoy me if I cannot attain this figure with a reasonable effort. I really hate cons for this very reason. If there was one thing Covid was good for, it was for killing con exclusives. Why won't Hasbro let me give them my money? I don't want to fly to San Diego and wait in line and sweat with a bunch of other people. I just want to preorder Mindbender and go about my business.

If I'm reading this right, does it hint that there will be a regular release of Mindbender? I would much prefer that to the deluxe one with all the extra bits that will go into a box and rarely, if ever, be looked at again.

Look at the last few exclusives. Cobra Commander and Zartan were both reissued multiple times outside of the Con stuff.

It this starts again and I see others and myself miss out on this because it is SDCC exclusive, it will kill my interest quickly if it happens often. Especially if they are numbered in the line. I have no issue if SDCC attendees get first crack at them, even if product would be there on hand but they should be available to everyone then after the con. I understand con exclusives less than store exclusives. Last edited by JackKnight73; 07-13-2022 at 05:45 PM.. |
