I think core class with the market the way it is now has to be a loss leader and I don't think Hasbro is into that right now. With the way they abandoned the size class after CW and 3p filled in the gap with better. Hasbro isn't making a $40 mini-MP at that scale. But there's also not a market for $10 of that size. No collector wants it and kids don't care and it's also the same price as a TMNT figure or 2 packs of pokemon or a dinosaur. Those figures at $5 would bring people in, but Hasbro's not in a position for a loss leader right now. It has to die right now, even though the old legends got me back into collecting and the RiD minis are just great toys.

I was thinking about not doing pulse premium and then death's head shows up as an sdcc exclusive the week after my premium runs out. I don't know if it'll sell or not, it's weird. Seems like it's not too bad to get a 3.75.

RtS jazz is just an all-timer.

So my views on what Hasbro did with the price point have been tainted again. I just got the Dr Wu Galvatron from BBTS. For $30 I got 2 core sized figs- both are incredible. If Dr Wu can do this at the size class and his company scale to create great figures at $15 a piece--- what's going on in Providence?
