>>6292163>In a fucking hobby where missing out a release date is punished with higher prices on the secondary market, WHY WOULD ANYONE WAIT instead of ordering the kickstarter?Bullshit.
Almost every other toy maker will continue producing their figures and selling them after release. All the imports that /toy/ collects? They're all sold in stores, which allows consumers to buy their toys AFTER knowing whether a toy is worth buying or not.
it's only 4H who only produce enough for preorders, and any extras are just left overs from the manufacturing process.
Even tiny companies who made toys for Kickstarter continue manufacturing toys after the matter, like Boss Fight Studio and Marauder Gun Runners.
4H is the only collector company where you have to blind buy the toys to own them without paying scalper fees.
It's funny how their FANtastic Exclusives, which are supposed to be limited, like the Raven is pegwarming, while the line that they planned for army builders is only made for people who preorder.
Making army builderable figures in numbers limited to only backers is backwards as fuck, but i guess that's what happens when you increase the scale for the He-Man buyers.
