An Amazon exclusive variant that you'll randomly get when you order the regular version. This is extra retarded. If I wanted the regular one and got this instead I'd be annoyed.

The Platinum chase figures aren't exclusive to any retailer. They've been found at various retail stores and Amazon, from the Bronze ones, to the bloodied MK variants, to the white armored Sister from 40K.

Are you dumb? McFarlane Toys sells to retailers, not to consumers. The retailers are buying the product, and so the product is being made. If the retailers said "hey Todd, this variant chase bullshit isn't working for us, please stop", McFarlane Toys would stop making them. Todd or whoever probably proposed the idea, and the retailers probably just said sure, why not, it might drive foot traffic to stores and additional ordering on Amazon. If they continue to make these, it's pretty safe to say something is working.

You can buy a second, pop the big arm off and replace it with the left arm from the spare. Just need to rotate the bicep to make it a right facing arm.

Incorrect. Second point of articulation is the pieces that plugs into the torso itself. It ain't much but it does add a little.

Hopefully the seller pulls through, because looking elsewhere, everyone's either selling him at ridiculous markups or everyone else is bidding on him like crazy.

It's unfortunate that these chase figures are like this. If it doesn't go through it's possible that the upcoming 2-pack of AFO and All Might have an AFO that's like this platinum edition.

Eh, I like McFarlane's recent output enough to collect a few lines. While his anime figures are generally shit or lackluster, All For One is simple enough for him not to fuck up. Plus the jacked up price doesn't hurt as much with overseas shipping in mind since I'm not from the US. That said, $100 shipped would've been my upper limit for such a figure.

>>9011772
I hope so. I'm happy enough to get him, but I'd still hope that 2-pack ends up being the platinum edition just repackaged as a set. I was originally going to wait and see how that would turn out before coming across the one I just bought.

TWO points of articulation on a shared axis. So in addition to failing at reading comprehension, you don't have any comprehension of basic geometry, meaning you're either drunk/high posting, or you're an absolute shit-for-brains mongoloid with fetal alcohol syndrome and inoperable 4th stage FAIL. yeah, I'm going to go with the latter.
