I don't know whether to laugh or cry, it's just absurd. The guy must have spent over a thousand dollars, and they're preorders, they're not even in hand. There's nothing illegal, and I wouldn't necessarily say it's unethical it's just a real dick move. I only hope in cases like this they get stuck with all of it, or amazon cancels their entire order. But why do people feed these guys? There's nothing worth that. They're essentially repaints. I'm pretty sure hasbro is going to single card repack at least one or two of them. At least.  The only exclusives I buy on ebay are the Disney droid depot figures, because I'm not going to florida or Ca for some figures. They're not even that expensive on the secondary market.

Scalpers gonna scalp. Looks like they are old hands at getting over on Amazon's system too. Crazy times.

I think I would like em just for their cards, to display as a set, sheesh, I’m starting to sound like Tamer.
     Sure, I would like to have these but it’s no different than the other exclusives. The production numbers just are not there for it to be easy to find nor is the distribution any better than in the past.
   I’m guilty of paying the aftermarket premium for some of the recent target figures. Didn’t think I would ever see em in a store and once they are gone, that seems to pretty much be it most times. I can only hope that they become more common.

I just read on Facebook that Hasbro PR's Firm has said there will be more of these to purchase on Amazon in Early 2022!

Yes, he's probably missing the softgoods to sell Rex at $30 or so. Amazon cancelled all my orders. A buddy of mine still received his 2 sets on Friday - even earlier than approximated: they were supposed to arrive on Wednesday (tomorrow) and mine from Amazon Germany was supposed to arrive on January 19.
I think I just go and make 3 of them myself. To me the new Clone Trooper design based on the TBS 41st Elite one is too tall and skinny anyways.

Ka-Bashed customs made a good reviews of this 4-Pack: I'm puzzled in disbelief that Hasbro - again - went cheap on the man himself: Captain Rex, but take a look for yourselves:

Sigh. Was never able to get the pre-order in.

Still trusting amazon to ship them to me was another duh moment.

Maybe I will see them down the road. I ain't too sad about it though. Seems like there is just a ton of new releases lately.

Bring home the bounty week 11 has a couple different arc troopers revealed. https://www.starwars.com/news/bring-home-the-bounty-week-11
Not the Amazon ones but I didn’t know where else to put it. More details as it comes.

Three types gaming greats, so i suspect they're fan channel exclusives.  Preorder available tomorrow at 10 pacific.

They are fan channel exclusives. $15.99 each.

I absolutely hate this exclusives war thing. It's harder than ever to get any of these. And they sell out in seconds.

Okay, TungHori now listed Captain Rex himself with all his accessories. That's the good news. The bad news is, he's currently out of stock. So let us keep checking here and on https://www.tunghori.com/product-page/vintage-collection-captain-rex-3-75-the-bad-batch

Just put the info on the front page about the three new ones.

I think these are for most major etailers. BBTS will definitely handle your order correctly.
