30th Anniversary Collection / Re: Recent 30AC Purchases
« on: November 24, 2007, 07:40 PM »Great! I guess only time will tell who is right here!Well one thing "the coins" I think Hasbo hates these things and wants to be finished with them ASAP! and lets not forget the 7.5 was only created to fill the void of the Force Unleshead. and consider usually by this time of the year the average collector has finshed or is very close to getting all the figures, not true this year. And we now have to compete against the holidays shoppers. I hope I'm wrong..but..I dont trust Hasbro with this 7.5 wave, I have a feeling they are going to short change the wave and it will end up being really hard to complete. I think Hasbro wants to be done with these coins ASAP!
On what basis do you make that assumption? History has proven the opposite.
So everything is based on speculation, not informed observation of any kind. Informed observation dictates the following:
Hasbro does care about the coins. They took the time to replace all the coins less scuffed coins to satisfy consumer complaints. This held up distribution foe two months. They also offer to replace damaged coins. They're not going to put themselves in the same situation by shortchanging the last wave.
I don't know what the replacement wave has anything to do with quantity made. Hasbro has strived to make the same run of figures in every wave for the past three years. There is no indication of this changing.
The only reason why collectors would be nearly finished by this time of year is because of a smooth year in distribution. Not so this year as stated above. And what does this have to do with wave 7.5 being short runned?
Finally, holiday shopped means more product on the shelves for people to buy.
Back on topic:
My EE Mandalorian set arrived yesterday and I picked up the McSolo and a few more Awing pilots.
Happy Holidays!
