I imagine scalpers also purchase the whole set and hold on to it until a new shipment is requested then return all the figures they bought.

On a side note I have a Havok or Rocket in box with BAF to trade for Scarlet Widow ( I never saw her in retail ).

Flaw in your logic is that NO retailer is going to limit a store sale item like this due to scalping. They don't know/care about scalpers because they still get the sale..so if you were to buy up all the Storms and Magnetos the store doesn't care if the pegs are left with shit tons of Wolverines. Case distribution is the problem as they pack Mags and Storm at 1 per case. 1 (ONE) UNO Single....creating the shortfalls we are seeing now. The Wolverine doesn't even have a BAF piece yet he is packed at 2 in the case...when the case could have had even distribution of Cyc,Stryf Storm and Mags at 2 per case...so yeah the 1 in case figs are gonna go first due to scalping and panic...
