I can see that logic, but it's not as if that iron man is hard to find, considering it has already been a single pack, part of a 3 pack, attached to an avengers base, and recently repainted. Even including it in the case isn't the worst thing, it's packing it 3 times and leaving a brand new figure (with new tooling costs) at 1 per case.

That doesn't factor in the recent assemblers and 5 poa figures of iron man still hanging around. Targets around me just started clearancing iron man 2 toys.

Once again, look at the turtles. Main characters are always available, but they aren't overloaded to the point they choke the pegs.
