In this past year Hasbro has made 30 plus exclusive figures and less than 20 figures for the general public. I am not sure I want to be paying 20-40-75 a figure for 30 figures a year. I did it last year but I am not so sure I care in 2012 for a $40 plus figure and shame on the world making the line so impossible to collect.

That's crazy. With all the exclusives and boxsets it's getting to the point where you have to be rich to collect GI Joe.

Amen to that, brother... And rich I'm not. I lucked out and searched ebay every day for 3 months until I found a Zarana that I only got for the price I got it for because the girl on ebay was breaking up with her boyfriend (I'm not proud of it, but I got Zarana.). I only have Darklon because Werecat over on joesightings had one and offered it to me for a fraction of the ebay cost. And I saved for a couple of months to set aside for SDCC exclusives on HTS, and when the Jinx and HISS were magically "sold out" out of my cart on the last page of the checkout, I used what I had set aside to get the helicarrier. And the only reason I was able to set aside the money I did is because Hasbro hasn't released anything other than retaliation wave 1 this year. ugh. /endrant

I was off work so I was pretty much watching out for the stuff on hts. I think I was in the shower for the 2 and a half minutes they were available on Wednesday. And then missed the 10 minutes or so they were available on Thursday. Crazy. But some people took off work Monday and Tuesday in hopes of getting them. I still want a white jinx.

Well, I've been trying to post this in the collections section from my PC, my phone, and my wife's iPad, and keep getting an internal server error... So I'm just going to assume that uploads are messed up and post this here.
The super helicarrier arrived yesterday!
