Exclusive Repaints Require Higher Price Tag!?
Posted: Mon Nov 08, 2021 2:20 pm
I was recently sent an email by Hasbro Pulse.
They wanted a short review
on my new SG BLURR.
You all know the type.
I initially was just gonna give it a 4 outta 5 stars
(If u got one, u know why)
And move on.
But I stopped & thought about "why 4?"
2 simple reasons:
#1 I am sick to death of exclusives.
But the real reason
#2 Fantastic figures, sure!
But, you charge far too much
for something that is basically a repaint.
Stop.
You have already convinced us to shell out for the same thing
at least twice
(if not a dozen times in the case of Seekers & Side/Streak repaints),
but on top of that
you absolutely need to charge more?
Why?
It's a TOTAL bull$#!@ game.
I completely sick of it!
And I need these companies to stop!
Just stop charging so FRAKKIN much extra!
It's not fare!
It's not special.
And I can't stop buying my Plastic Crack
So be a caring drug dealer and cut us some slack!
It's not like the collector's are not going to buy!
PS. Hell, I'd love to stage some kind of group boycott on the whole overpriced exclusives thing... but then we would have to not buy them... and that... just ain't going to happen.
Dammit.
