It's like saying antibiotics are unfair to people who died of the plague. Was that unfair to the person who agreed to buy it for 40K? The next year, new models are out and they're trying to sell off the old ones, so you get to buy the same car for 25K. Say someone buys a brand new car right when it comes out for 40K. If it's someone popular like Venom who has his own movie, yeah they'll probably re-release the figure. Or make a calculated decision on if they'll re-release the figure and then wait. If you want a BAF but not all the characters in the wave, buy them, and then sell the figures you don't want. That's the thing about them always changing figures, sometimes you like the changes on the re-release, sometimes you don't.īuy the figures you want, not the ones you don't want. But I didn't like the new Cyclops, I didn't want him in a jacket, so I kept the old one and sold the new one. And he also got re-released in the 3-pack. And then with the new figure, I felt like she got an upgrade so I was happy to have the new one.Ĭyclops I also overpaid for. Because the whole time I had a '90s X-Men team with the proper Jean Grey figure instead of feeling like an essential character was missing. I overpaid for Jean Grey a while ago, and then they recently re-released her in the Love Triangle 3-pack. And you shouldn't look at action figures as an investment, anyway. That may not be worth exactly the price difference, but it is worth something. But I got to have the figure in my collection for a few years instead of feeling like there was a giant Apocalypse sized hole on my X-Men villains shelf. If they release him solo for $30, I spent way more than that. They're doing an "Age of Apocalypse" wave this year, they very well may re-release the figure. I spent a lot of money on the Apocalypse BAF. At least Hasbro never re-releases the exact same figure, they always change it up at least a little.
If people will buy it, they'll re-release it. What other line of children's toys (that lasted more than a year) have not re-released figures? You can't expect them not to do it. First off, yes we are adults and we collect these, but these are mass produced children's toys, not limited edition collectibles.
