[QUOTE=BossHog10;5577218
Seriously, all that's gonna happen when I get them anyway, is they'll just get thrown in a storage bin with the hundreds of other figures I have. I can wait lol[/QUOTE] I think the real late night question is why does one spend money just to wait and throw something into a bin? Not aimed at you, but at all of us.

I got serpentor so this isn't sour grapes:
The fact we are in a place where there is a one hour and five minute window for buying a figure and we're even implying it's the customer who did something wrong is ridiculous. Call me crazy, but I believe a product--ANY product--should be available long enough that even a customer who isn't watching the internet daily for news about a product, should be able to hear about it and make it to thier next payday when they can buy it, and have it still be available. This is the MINIMUM. Anything less and the seller is leaving ridiculous amounts of money on the table. The fact that some of us have gotten good at the game doesn't make the game one iota less ridiculous. |

Some here might disagree with me, but I feel if you pay a $50 premium, you should get a guarantee to buy the figure, not just an hour of early access.
This is coming from one with no premium who still got the figure.

I feel like such a dick for saying on here how I bought Premium just for Serpentor and missed it. I set alarms and everything but didn't have my phone with me when I went out. I mean it's totally my fault. But it's also a wakeup call I think. I need to stop spending so much money on nerd shit and save for retirement or other necessary expenses. Yes that's sour grapes but it's also reality. I've been contemplating on which things to keep in my collections, and number one is my Mezco One:12 Popeye figures. They blow all this crap out of the water lol. |

I think CG looks great, and I'd point out that alot of women who are really are in high fashion actually have angular faces to an extent.

While the logical train of thought would be that Hasbro should make more because they can sell more and maximize profits, I’ve seen Nike do this same shit for years.
The Jordan 1 debuted in 85 I believe. That line along with the Dunk, AF1 etc. hits the same nostalgic nerve that Classified does. These companies seem to thrive off of the chaos that ensues when the demand is greater than the supply. The exorbitant retail prices perhaps justifying their price increases. Curious to see how Hasbro handles this moving forward. |

Happy for those who aren't total basket cases like me and got it. |

I get what you are saying about how much this all costs, and I feel the same way.
