Either way, SDCC exclusives have always been ~2x the normal price as figures.
I miss when we got more actual exclusive stuff, but even this trend of mostly being redecos isn't new.
It used to be that Hasbro would use some newly sculpted piece, like Business Suit Cobra Commander or Lord Destro, and you'd never see those pieces ever again, but eventually those started being used on normal figures.
That Obi Wan figure? Only the accessory piece is exclusive.
Sentinel is just a redeco, and excludes the pack in figure and that was like 8 years ago, wasn't it?
You kids are barely noticing Hasbro/Mattel's/etc habits at SDCC and it's obvious as fuck at how ignorant you guys are.
