You know there's like, as we speak, literally a record number of ships backed up outside of LA and Long Beach waiting to dock and offload cargo, right? And that it's worsening shortages of all kinds of products and pushing restocks back by months?

Actually, BEFORE he became Dr. Strange, he had a short stint with the Blue Man Group. Great show!

Because whether you believe it or not production costs have gone up, so it's either lower the quality even more or raise prices.

I've also seen enough Hiss Tank IIIs at Walmart lately to build a literal Cobra army, so I'm not too worried about another Walmart exclusive with Strange.

Exclusive again, how surprising. Glad I stopped buying Marvel Legends nowadays.

Because California and New York are the whole world? The problem has been going on longer, and it's gotten worse, while they raise the prices. If it was just backed up then we'd still get things in some kind of order? But there are recent figures coming into stores whereas some previous waves never made it to shelves depending on where you live. And how are scalpers "selling" at such horrendous prices?

Haven't ever seen the Moonknight Walgreens exclusive, or any of the Target Cobra Island. Most other things have been difficult at best. Production costs going up may be, altho it seems goofy on its face, as well. I'd take a lull over permanently raising prices while lowering quality.

Given that the artwork shows the mask going all the way down into his collar, they really should have given him a swap-out head w/ neckpost like the recent Infinity War Iron Man.
