There is absolutely NO price difference between the Walgreens figures and regular ones. Who are you buying from that is charging you more? That is your own fault, not Hasbros.

2. Cause The Surfer is basically your most basic figure mold + paint.

I fail to see the issue.

On top of that, they didnt even bother with some blue shading (from what it seems), even though they clearly acknowledge that it is needed (see promo pic)

Where do you see blue paint on Surfer in the picture? Also, why the hell would you want blue paint on Surfer? He's called the SILVER Surfer, NOT the Silver and Blue Surfer.

Meanwhile almost 20 yrs ago, Toybiz actually bothered to throw in some blue shading.

Yeah, and Toy Biz's figures are shitty as fuck. Balls for what should be hips, hands that look awkward when you try to put them in a fist position, gorilla-like proportions, no ratchet joints, so the joints are loose over time, etc. I own the Toy Biz Surfer figure and it is hands down the second worst Marvel Legend in my collection.
