Factor in the gas that i've wasted since december trying to find her, and storm for that matter, and the time i've spent in traffic and the dissapointment and dispair i've felt in not seeing any new product since december and the extra ten dollars per figure is actually WAAAAYYY worth it. because even if an arker found it for me, it'd still be retail, plus shipping, which would put the price at about 15 bucks anyway. so now we are only talking about 5 bucks over the price you'd pay normally.

Add all that together, and the conclusion is simple, pay the 20 bucks from amazon, and pick the rest of the figures up when they are peg warming in a month from now. Because even when the wave starts hitting, scalper assholes are probably gonna be snaching that shit up anyway before we can get our grubby little mits on them.

But thats just my two cents.
That's my exact reasoning for preordering off BBTS- but this tie, they hosed me hard- I ordered just Storm and Psylocke the day the preorders went up- within an hour- but have recieved jack shit while everyone that ordered a whole case already got theirs.

That's damn annoying.

So I search for them at retail- I scored a box set STorm off ebay for $5 and shipping- making it about $9 for a better figure than the carded version (though no lightning bolt thingies) and now I just need Psylocke to happile cancel my BBTS preorder-that-will-never-happen-anyway.
