Retail fag here. Something has come to my attention lately that has really pissed me off. So I'm going to share my story with you because I have no other place to vent.
You will never own these figures without paying huge scalper prices. Here's why.
Now that the movie is over and done with the retail buyers have cut their orders for Star Wars figures by 90%. Don't believe me? Look at how things were before the new movie merch hit shelves in September.
Making matters worse is that these figures each come 2 per case, in a case that has 6 other carry over figures, including the worst shelf hanger of the bunch, the resistance trooper.
Disney has also just sent out a press release talking about the "unprecedented demand" for Rey merchandise. This is a rouse. They're going to deliberately short pack her figures, as they have done in all previous waves, to make it seem like her figures are in very high demand.
These three figures DO NOT show up in any refresher waves after this case. Instead they are replaced by more carry over figures and a few new characters like Finn in the Stormtrooper outfit, Ackbar and Nien Numb.
So prepare to pay out the ass for these figures. Otherwise you're never going to own them.
It seems like the only sensible thing to do is to give up on American Star Wars toys all together.
Here's the wave name, just in case you need it.
