I don't buy the crown jewel argument at all. That doesn't give Hasbro a blank check to price something wildly out of touch with actual costs. They got greedy and it bit them in the ass. I know plenty of collectors who don't own a Hot Toys figure because of the price point. No one is saying we wanted a "bargain" price. A fair price, yes. I'm so happy this failed so that Hasbro dials back the greed and incompetence a little bit.

Hopefully the rancor is worth it. I tend to stay away from the high end collectibles but they do look neat. I love cheap thrills lol
