Why the fuck do companies sell the exact same toy in more than 2 different color palettes? Even worse when it's released in separate waves

It makes back costs for the the development of the mold, and also some of us do like experiencing a figure in a new color scheme.

Grey was a kick starter exclusive. Limited to a few hundred pieces. I think it's still worth less than bass x though. I wish they made a protoman variant. All they need is a scarf, new head, and a shield

All those variants and no iX color scheme is just a missed opportunity.

I have the Kickstarter gray one and I've left it sealed in the box. Hopefully I can sell for a decent chunk someday.

Fuck you. It's a legit question and I don't need your edgy snarky wisecracks.
If you're too stupid to put up a coherent answer, go fucking suck your micropenis.

Inexpensive to switch colors on the same mold, also collectors like having different variations of the same mold.

Fuck you. Why don’t you read any of the other responses in the thread and figure it out? Is reuse a new concept for you?

Ah, yes. When you don't have a good counter argument, just tell the other person to shut up with a liberal dose of obscenity. That's how all the great debates were won.

It's not a great looking figure in that color, don't blame you.
>>8049241
you have some bad taste m8, but there might be hope if anybody buys enough of the new figure in this line they're making. We stil don't have a Zero prototype.
>>8050323
you're probably better off selling it for the 200-350 it sells for now, I think it still does, I don't see it going up more than where it is currently though.

These.

It cost way more money to produce new molds than it does to just repaint existing ones.

Its cheaper to release a recolor over making a brand new mold. You get more bang for your r&d buck.

>you're probably better off selling it for the 200-350 it sells for now
Yeah I agree with this, especially considering the gray color doesn't even homage a different character or popular form like the other recolors. The longer you wait the more it'll just fade into obscurity as it also belongs to a dead forgettable toyline.
