Just about every straight-from-China DCUC figures on eBay have been made available without any packaging or accessories. They are loose figures, but not in the sense that they are from an "open-box." These are versions that never made it into a box in the first place. Last edited by hrothgars; 07-24-2012 at 01:47 PM.. |

6 figures in all are reflected in that price. Each figure in each month in each subscription after the first month is an additional cost. Last edited by hrothgars; 07-24-2012 at 01:47 PM.. |

Bubba's quoting the combined price for each of the 3 individual subscriptions he signed up for (including 3 club-exclusive figures) + first month's figure, taxes, & shipping for each (3).
6 figures in all are reflected in that price. Each figure in each month in each subscription after the first month is an additional cost. so just so I understand you pay for a subscription and in that you get the 1st figure as a part of that then you pay month to month for the others? |

alright I think I have it now. so in essense the cost of the sub is really $12 and then $18 for that 'free' figure + taxes. so that isn't too bad for the sub but $26 seems high for a new figure. I liked your idea about case packing and wish they would just do that and make the line viable instead of seemingly forcing the sub so that we can get the characters we want like that Wally West

They are more expensive for cherry-pickers on day-of sale. So with that rationale, the cost of the subscription can be considered a subscription fee with a free figure OR a $30 figure with a free contract binding you to participate in the subscription. Either way, that portion is $30 plus tax. |

Does a subscriber have to buy the monthly figure or could they just purchase the figures during the year that they want?

So I'm over on matty reading an article they've put up today (this), and for one they don't know that Elongated Man is not MOTUC, but second they're saying part of that whole "Early Access" thing is that subscribers can purchase anything they're selling that's NOT part of a subscription a few days before the general public, including SDCC items!

Less than a week left and it's starting to look a whole lot like last year. We aren't even going to come close.

It's been said before and I said it recently in the Appreciation Thread. . .in short, we'd be okay with paying $18 for a premium figure. It's that you add onto that $12+ for shipping and taxes and suddenly these are $30 each. Shipping should not cost that much, and I'm getting charged tax on the shipping cost which I think is wrong.
The figures they've shown just aren't as compelling, IMO, as what they baited us with last year. Plus as it turns out, the 2012 sub had several shipments combined (a monthly fig + an oversized fig in one shipping carton). 2013 we won't get that but once. We'll pay a TON in shipping. I subbed in 2012, glad I did, characters ended up being pretty good overall, but I can't do it in 2013 I don't think. I'll have to hope they put the one or two they've shown so far that I want in the retail line or make them available some other way. But if not, life goes on.

Just read through all the "fine print" of subscription details, and found this gem:
For 2013, there will be updates to shipping costs and methods, including a new, lower cost option for international customers. Most shipping methods will see small increases in cost, although some premium methods will see a slight decrease in cost. As if the shipping wasn't already high enough. . .

2013 won't be happening. It is sad and I wanted to sub, but the shipping increase is the killer. Also, as I am in Canada it takes 3-4 weeks for my figure to arrive.

It grew twice today, once this morning and once again this evening. It's still short though.

i can't believe it only grew that much....what sucks is they don't give us numbers...like "how many subs need to be sold" and "how many have currently been sold" without those numbers we really have no clue what they are showing us....another bad tactic by toy guru....its like fighting an uphill battle
