Wraith 2, why so much?

[ender098]

As you all might know, for years now, I have wanted a "Wraith" action figure. This year, my wish has come true (except for the fact that they are 25th!). Not only can I get a Wraith action figure, there is a "translucent" variant. I recently acquired a V1 and just saw that BBTS and Small Joes had stocked a V2....my question is, why are the V2's so darm expensive?

Are these THAT rare? Are they being shorted in the boxes? Are they a limited release wave? Does anybody know the deal?

no , there are rear now, but later on youll find it all over the place, i wish hasbro would make this a mail away, people go crazy over this, i had found all but v1,Wraith, why? the scalpers, every set theres always something, when wave 11 comes out its going to be matt trakker. its crazy,

Maybe because its a chase figure. This means a figure in the same mold in different colors. Could be they didn't produce many. Or they will be a hot sell because when he's translucent he's close to being invisible. Anyhew, don't blame me , I don't like the fig. wait a few weeks when he's loose. I'm sure he'll be less expensive.

[COLOR=Red]he shouldnt be so much since he isnt a good character. but he is because they know people will pay the price. [/COLOR]
