I have to agree with what's been said about SDCC exclusives in recent years. Exclusives are supposed to be 100% unique and special, not made by means of reusing tooling, with no paint apps, AND from a line (MOTU Giants) that has already been established as a failure.

The MUSCLES are a cute throwback but c'mon. I can get better crap out of a gum ball machine for $6 worth of quarters.

The reaction figures are a nifty idea but it's just an insult to sell them as fake prototypes with no paint apps when it is clear as day that it's a cost cutting measure, meanwhile the price for them is sky high. They should of made an Orko reaction figure as an exclusive, and the other 4 could have been sold (with paint apps) as regular figures, first at SDCC then nation wide.

Chia Moss Man? LOL! I can't really throw on it because it's a good idea, put the price for it and everything else Super7 is peddling is just robbery.

Another good point that was made is people buy them. Naturally toy companies are going to continue what they do because well, they sell. They sell because the target market (completists) has deep pockets, the products are advertised as limited run, and the customers believe it. Marketing is evil, but it works on most people.

Still, I believe in value. People who spend that kind of money on stuff like this should get better value for their dollar.
