Do you think the bmf will be a clearance item?

So im just curious if you think we will being seeing these on the clearance shelf in the future. Like the exclusive Rancor Target had, its a really cool item but its just soooo expensive.

$40 for that Rancor? Yikes

$150 for BMF? Double yikes

$100 for the AT-ET(or whatever its called)..good grief.

What is hasbro thinking with the huge price tags? People cant afford these items. With that said, do you think we will see this items red tagged in the future?

Only time will tell.

Gut Feeling?

Yes.

The hardcore fans are going to jump on it right away, however Parents and casual fans are not going to spend $150 on that.

With Target, probably as Target will put something on clearance in a heart beat. When the Speed Racer toys were first put out, my Target put some of them on clearance the first day. TRU and WM, will be a long time before you see SW stuff on clearance, at least in my area. My WM's still have the SW VOTC wave 2 fig's from 2 yrs ago, still at regular price.

BMF yes! I went to Target after work @ 10Am and all that were left were BMFs and Clone Trooper helmets/voice changers.

My mother ended up buying both the BMF and the AT-TE for my son this morning. She is saving the BMF for his Christmas though, which is where i think most of those sales will come from. Fellow nerds will pick them up as money becomes available. To bad everything isn't as causally available.
