The fandom collector market has exploded . Platforms for marketing products,and reaching consumers has exploded. Years ago all we had were a few websites, forums and a couple magazines promoting new products. Then even before all that, there was the golden area of collecting, when you walked in a ToyRus,or any toy isle blindsided with no idea of what cool things you might find

Why is SS Roadbuster so overpriced? He’s a shell former. He should not cost $100 or more. He should be at least $30 on the after-market. I managed to get the Baiwei Sentinel Prime with all the upgraded weapons for only $15 off Aliexpress. Shame on you eBay and Amazon.

I once looked at a Mythic Legends figure online and my bank account filed a restraining order.

I gave like 80 of these things, originals …the whole collection… to a 3 year old kid

THEY WOULD BE READY TO TAKE ON MY NIECE AND GRANDMOTHER.....WELL , NOT MY GRANDMOTHER, BUT THATS ALL THEY ARE GOOD FOR. MURDERING COWARDS

I just look at Ross Oct is the best time overstocked Christmas shipment till December

The idea that Todd McFarlane plans his business around helping scalpers is absurd and hilarious 😂

I feel that a lot of the reason why people like us who collect toys have such a connection to them is because the 80s and 90s were just so different than what we’re dealing with now that we want to just feel a little bit of what was going on instead of all the chaos that is today!

P is silent in the word:”corps”, when it pertains to a military organizations💁🏻‍♂🤦🏻‍♂🙄.

Been lugging my McFarlane collection around for the past thirty-two years... Ready to get rid... full sets, toy club exclusives, etc. ... Tomb Raider, Chicken Run, Sin City... mostly McFarlane... in packaging and boxes...

My little cousin has to this day his black panther from infinity war that he actually got on discount in 2022 😂 (it is the iw version) and for a 10 year old he keeps good care for that figure

Black Series sucks and I sold all my collection.

The Ghost Rider NEVER SOLD OUT at BBTS. If ur gonna make videos then post true stuff

I went to Legions Con back in November, and Power Con before that. It was fun seeing the Horsemen crowd at both events. I met a lot of passionate fans for the brand and for the Four Horsemen. I am though, someone who in just the past year that has got into Mythic Legions and Cosmic Legions, but I'm beginning to dip out. The secondhand market for the older figures is definitely up there. Plus, space is shrinking in my house. It's nice knowing that one of the guys from Ghosthunters has a toy channel. You learn something new every day.

I would buy Toyfare religiously. Miss that zine.

truth to this and most in-demand pieces gone in minutes!

Everyone comes with the same kind of tag what about when the price is printed on the package itself not on a tag to peel off how do you remove that

Meanwhile I can't afford any

Back before he got reissued i was so proud to have ss ironhide not because i intended to resell him but because i FOUND HIM IN A STORE when few others could

I never played a waiting game if I see something I get it right there and then because I know how it is

The problem with mass production is that they make a lot of figures that nobody wants and very few of the ones that everybody what's that's the problem

The saddest part??? They don't have to do this anymore. I've watched plenty of vids on new mold techniques including short run style molds that are cost effective and will last long enough to make up for additional orders without Hasbro/McFarlane needing to cut off orders for fear of needing to order another metal mold. They could literally machine the metal molds for their "guess" and leave PO's open using the short run style molds for whatever else they get. Best of both worlds. Companies are doing this with miniatures.

Im collecting original TMNT and went from MOTU Origins to the turtles of Grayskull line and loving it, except for not being able to find them in store.

This is sad to watch. He’s a hoarder.

I think they are doing it on purpose with low numbers up for sale at a time as at all my local stores all their stuff is on the sale rail

The main thing is that a SF line and MK line a that scale with each other and at an affordable price. I'll buy all of them. Also Jada plays well with 6 inch and 1/12 scale that other companies use. That alone is a big sale point.

Yeah I share in your pain - I have got to be majorly on the preorder ball to get any of the high profile GI Joe and Transformers releases, especially in Canada. I am usually able to these days, but have to set dates and times in my calendar and cover multiple retailer sites. Anyway, great video - just subbed!

Only problem with this thought is that… well… the manufacturers control the inventory levels. They market pre-orders as pre-orders, but they aren’t. Pre-orders should, in theory, determine what the company builds to scale demand. What’s actually happening is that McFarlane and hasbro are deciding up front what they want to manufacture and they use the phrase “pre-order” when they mean reservation. The more nefarious element here is that this ultimately helps swing that pendulum you discussed back in the direction of mass manufacturing. Because scalpers and buyers rush to now pre-order everything… leading hasbro and McFarlane to up production of stuff no one really wants. Like the Darkseid figure. There is absolutely no reason that should be sold out, but it is… and it’s because they want to push that “you gotta pre-order” narrative. Hell… half my preorders through Amazon are delayed or canceled anyway.

Can you make one about DC

Only reason for keeping figures in packages is for autograph purposes only

Gyatttttttt ❤❤❤

You should revisit this.And add the ant man head set
