>>8546708that's encouraging desu. This is a bit a weird follow-up but does Hasbro have any stake in the secondary market for figures?

>>8546719what tips Hasbro over the edge on the pricier products? I've noticed that there's some I see the obvious appeal of (90's nostalgia, a coveted BAF included, one standout figure), and others that just seem blah (a bunch of those Marvel Legends + Motorcycle toys, a fair amount of underwhelming two-packs).
Also is Hasbro aware of the general frustration regarding retailer exclusive toys? Like it's one thing to "force" the consumer to buy from a certain retailer (I'm sure none of us really care all that much where we buy from for a few exclusives) but it's another thing to have toy buyers repeatedly rebuffed by out of stock products and high prices on the secondary market.
