Especially seeing this - that they've posted only three of them. Meaning anyone who wants a complete set is gonna have to wait even longer for them to put Rook up there with the others.
Now, I DO regret not being able to take part of their promo discounts, and the slightly lower prices I'm seeing. But not to the point where I would wait that long. I got mine through luck and good fortune of catching them on the shelves of a local retail store.
I still have no idea why HTS seems to be totally on the ball for SOME of their figures, while others take forever to wheeze their way onto their website, and while some figures never get posted at all.
Sorry HTS - you missed out. Try and be a little quicker on the draw, and more consistent with your own stuff.
I know exactly why: b/c they know we need these, and that we need these as a SET. If they released them at one we could get them and the free shipping; this way we have to pay for shipping twice over, or add in superfluous figures to get to $50 TWICE. And while it may be a good way to drive sales and move old merch, it also drives away your customers
They pulled the same stunt with slingshot and neck brace. You couldn't get them and hotspot in a neat and tidy purchase, you either caved and got them with cyclonus (it only sucked if you didn't want cyclonus) or substituted another $20+ to get them with free shipping. THEN they put hotspot up 10 hours later
If even one of them sells out before rook appears, hasblow toy s#*t will not get my business
F@#k this, f*&k them, you can't even call them out on it, b/c all they have to do is say it was a clerical error
