Yeah, I am calling NECA out for its practices. It's a common sales tactic in the toy industry, and people should at least know some of the Psych behind it.

I cannot see myself subscribing to Loot crate but Danny and a Keno would be super enticing, but at some point, I must put my foot down and can't keep playing the scarcity/chase game.
“Calling them out?” Really. Lol. Neca isn’t doing anything wrong. For years, Neca, and all manufacturers of product, order their product made in a limited number. It can be a batch of 4000, or a batch of 20,000. It’s completely up to the maker to make however many they want made. There is no law that says everyone who wants something gets it. Especially in a collectors product which implies a level of scarcity.

I definitely can’t fault them for making these toys in limited numbers. Danny wouldn’t sell at retail. Hell, most of Neca’s figures I can’t help but wonder how they sell, I’ve seen the “They Live” figures sitting on shelves with MONTHS worth of dust collecting on them. Regardless, Neca knows what they are doing, and I’m sure they are guffawing at all the fanboys “calling them out”.
