It's also probable that the more waves, the thinner the budget gets, the less they can spend in total on each wave.

They really seem to be stuck in this weird position; fans want so many figures right now! and there's movies and TV shows to capitalize on in a timely fashion, and so forth that they're stuck between trying to appease a lot (Disney/Marvel who they've got the license from, the Vendors, and the fans) and somethings got to give at points.




Personally Ulik and Borr.


On another note, I decided to just pre-order the Ragnarok wave from BBTS; for a case, the price per figure is under retail, let alone with my state sales tax added in, and I've already got a POL going anyway, so shipping is virtually a non-issue as well.

Just gotta find the Thor/Valkyrie 2-pack, which if the past ones are any indication of, shouldn't be an issue at all to find, knock on wood.

I am so freaking glad that is a Target exclusive. Target is the only store in my local area that actually stocks their exclusives and fairly quickly. I am betting with two weeks of it first hitting the states it will be in at least one of the three nearby targets.
