Those characters exist to drain hardcore collectors out of their money, rather than they invest said money in gold or other precious commodities to protect against economic uncertainty.

Ram-man, Mekaneck, Sorceress, Mantenna, Rattlor, etc all should have figures before Marlena. Lessee... I can see it now: "epic battle between the Masters and Skeletor's forces... or.... a royal tea party? tee hee, tee hee!" Good grief!
But then wouldn't there be complaints from people who can't get to SDCC if a more popular character was made an exclusive? If Ram-Man was a SDCC exclusive I know I'd personnally be disappointed because I can't get there to get one, much like with Orko and Prince Adam. I know that a varient was released on Matty a few weeks later, but I would assume the more hardcore collectors who wish to collect more or less everything, and the odd individual who would rather have the SDCC varient would be up in arms. It doesn't sound like scraping the barrel, it sounds like spreading the more popular characters out across the release dates to maintain interest in the line.

It's not as if those more popular characters wouldn't be released as part of the monthly figure thing at some point anyway.
