I don't intend to sell him, but it would have been nice that if something happened and I NEEDED to I could have and made a little bit of money. I've got hundreds and hundreds of figures, the only reason I sold ANY were because I finally got fed up with the JLU line.
There are also several Clayfaces on eBay right now with only one of those at $50 (and that is a BIN with best offer). The others are considerably less. It's not the chase that lost the appeal. It's the re-releases after the chase that make all that time spent useless . Wouldn't you feel burnt out if you spent that time finding something rare only to have it re-released in an almost, if not identical scheme?
I also don't see why people are bitching at me over my opinion on toy distribution. It's not my fault their distribution sucks and it's not my fault that anybody didn't get a clayface or any other rare figure. If you wanted one bad enough, you would have bought one from one of the "good sellers" on eBay or at a toy show or have friends find them. I don't just look toys for myself. I've got friends out west that look toys for me in their areas and I do the same for them. I could have probably paid $50 and spent less money than I did finding one at retail.
I don't think I said anything inflammatory in my post, but people seem to have a problem with my opinion on a toy and its distribution. So, for anyone who doesn't understand my reasoning I'm sorry. I wish they had made him easy to find to begin with, period. It was nice however, that while he was rare, if I needed to sell it I could have and made a little profit on it (if you don't count gas/other expenses to get him). Sorry that is unreasonable and/or offensive.
