The thing about Darkseid is that, since he was bigger, he was a dollar more, and he shipped in his own solid case. So, stores would get in mixed cases of the regular figures- Batman, Superman, Joker, etc.- but then a box of something like 24 Darkseid figures. So you'd have stores with a mix of a bunch of different characters, and then literally dozens of Darkseids.

I agree, though- awesome figure! I got him as a kid, and thought he was great- huge, cool cape, action feature, and the awesome light-piped eyes. They should have just either worked him in to regular cases, and made less profit on him, or maybe sold him in a 2-pack with a unique hero figure (Maybe a battle-damaged Superman or something).
