We had a KMart go out of business; closed up last Saturday. You know how they do those. . .they knock a little higher percentage off each week till it's all gone. I decided to grab a Blue Devil and modern Blue Beetle (yeah, they never got past wave 13) at half price. . .$6.50 each. I went back on their last day, when everything was 90% off. They STILL had Cyclotron and 2 or 3 modern Cheetahs on the shelf.
Raven and Starman at $8 is a steal!
But back on topic. . .my question to you, Tiberius, is if they offered a whole subscription full of characters you wanted, would you pay $20-ish for them?
To sum up my overall point, I think what's preventing club membership sales is a feeling from us potential buyers that we'll be paying a ton of money (Problem 1) for figures we might not want (Problem 2). I can't see Mattel doing anything about the price problem (again, at $15 it's less than retail; and seeing that Young Justice 6" are $20). I'm offering a suggestion they could use to fix the second half of the problem.
At the very least, if they really wanted to sell this, tell us every figure planned for the subscription. Or throw it wide open to voting. . .they could compile a list of EVERY unmade character that they can make (that their licensing allows for) and put up a poll on mattycollector starting with this: Which characters would you pay $20 for? Choose up to 15. We'll make the top 10 for the Club this year.
