Not going to happen for me.

i'm sorry but you're insane..

this figure is basically an exclusive.. right?.. exclusives tend to cost a bit more right?.. shipping almost always costs money as well, correct?..

so.. $40.. the movie on walmart.com cost $7.88, so that's $32.12.. subtract shipping which is about $9 (for me) which brings us to 23.12.. the NES version costs $24.99.. so.. how is this a bad deal?

you're getting a figure that you otherwise won't be able to get.. if you're breaking it down the way i have it makes sense.. and even if you're looking at it as 'this is an exclusive, so i'm paying an exclusive price' it makes sense.. i mean.. it's not like we're talking about $75 or even $50.. it's $40. i can think of plenty of other toys that don't look nearly this good but cost more.

so again.. you're insane for complaining about this. 1769 of these have been sold in what.. a couple days?.. so.. i'm glad not many others feel the same as you about this.

also.. it's a beautiful figure.. that needs to be taken into account here. there are very few, if any, flaws. in my opinion there aren't any.

i would prefer this to be sold in stores.. but, i'd rather know that i'm getting it than keeping my fingers crossed that it finds its way to stores and risk missing out.

as for the movie.. who cares? i only own it on VHS lol.. but still, i probably won't even bother watching it.. i've seen it plenty. there are plenty of other things that are released at retail with extra items that you don't really want, but you suck it up and get it any way.
