The fact that the new Star-Lord comes with a build a figure peace and Death's Head does not is exactly what I was ranting about a few pages back about being both pissed off and burnt out at Hasbro for some of their recent business practices with re-releasing figures or do-overs that are unnecessary.

Had it been reversed, I would have been okay with it, but the fact that they are forcing your hand into buying that POS by including a necessary piece of the BAF is really shady and frustrating.

This kind of practice also benefits scalpers of build a figure pieces in the long run, allowing them to charge more for the single piece on the secondary market because no one will want the figure that comes with it. This happened just recently with the Dormammu build a figure, as prices for his head were ridiculous thanks to it being included with Spectral Strange (which was a garbage MCU figure that was not needed) which forced many people like me to buy that figure NIB and attempt to sell off the Spectral Strange (which I got a whole 6 dollars for after eBay took their cut and shipping.) It also took me 2 weeks to get rid of the damn thing because no one wanted it.

Now I am not surprised that they did this and should have seen it coming, it still pisses me off to no end.
