>>6417215I've never seen a single Silk in person since the wave launched, and that's at Target, TRU, Walmart and Walgreens in a dozen or more cities across 2 states. It's $40 on Amazon and eBay, or more, depending on the day and shipping costs.
>>6417210Yeah, this damn BAF stuff, too! I like some of the figures, but the need to get 6-8 figures to complete the set is a shitty plan.
I'm not sure what they could do different. Part of their problem in general is selling everything by the wave. Hasbro is selling to places like Wal-Mart by the case. So even if Wal-Mart knows that Pizza Spidey is going to sell like hotcakes, they can't sell it without committing to the whole damn wave, which inevitably has 2-4 long term pegwarmers.
Shit like that kills their inventory turnover ratio, but they're fucked because they can only buy from Hasbro in those assorted cases.
Diamond Select doesn't have that problem. Shit stays at retail, none of that clearance price stuff. Stores can order just the figures they want. If it's still in production, you can get most anything you want for $20-30.
