So Hasbro didn't quietly forget. I'm not a fan of the price but I am a Tron fan, so fuck dammit..........

And why isn't CLU orange?

Clu was yellow. Rinzler and the rest of his troops were orange.

Wish Sam's helmet didn't have the face on it, what are the chances these hit pulse's clearance?

For a mark-up over the already outrageous $35 per figure asking price.

>>11756940
>Wish Sam's helmet didn't have the face on it
That's accurate, though for a hundred fucking dollars they should have given him a third head of his disc wars helmet. The motorcycle helmet looks retarded for anything other than him riding the motorcycle.

This line is going to shelfwarm big time at these prices

I might have picked up a Rinzler (at Ollies) if it was sold individually. Hasbro clearly does not think Tron is a popular enough IP for retail (they are probably right) so they are doing these shenanigans with overpriced exclusive multipacks and haslabs. Because it's the only way to be worth it to them.

I hate Hasbro

>>11756961
Can't shelfwarm if they never see shelves. They're Pulse exclusive and don't release until December. They are probably making these to order, hence the high cost.

So much money left on the table. A Sentry with orange Light Cycle should have also been a no brainer. Pretty sure the Sentry Light Cycles were the same Gen 5 design as Sam's, so easy repaint there. Very dumb not releasing these army builders.

What the fuck are these prices

>>11756976
Smarr famiry business. Prease understand.

>>11756976
They know the line will bomb at retail and got freaked so now they are Pulse exclusive at inflated costs as they try not to lose as much money

>>11756963
But you can recall the exact moment.

That's not even what he was wearing in the moment this expression was taken from. He was in his long robe, not his battle grid suit. It'd be fine if it were an extra head in addition to a neutral face, but this being the only unmasked Clu head is a really weird choice.

>>11756940
Even worse is that he only has the motorcycle helmet, not the normal helmet also.

Fucking hell it's secondary market it is, then.

>>11757159
Small indie company, please understand. At the low price of $100 a third head would have broken the bank.

>>11756963
A smug asshole is exactly what I want CLU to look like though.

>>11756851
Don't care. Getting this.

It's hilarious people are buying these. If the west falls, a small part of it is due to our mental addiction to buy worthless plastic "thing I remember" at nearly double the price the stuff would've been 6 years ago

I want to buy these but the UK prices are fucking ridiculous. The equivalent of $140 for Sam and $195 for the 4-pack. Fuck that.

I'll look forward to the day that this future peg-warmer ends up in fodder lots at the equivalent of $2 a head, so I can replace all my RDJ Iron Manlet's head sculpts and sell them off to unsuspecting tourist casuals at a huge profit.

Why am I not surprised

Doesn't BigBad Scam Store get pulse shit after they don't sell or maybe they just buy up all the stock and resell it
They started selling the omega rangers right after they got heavily discounted on pulse

>>11759953
BBTS clearly buys stock and resells it. Given the long pre-order window on these Tron toys, it seems pretty evident that Hasbro is making them to order. There will be some extras made for addressing returns due to QC issues which could be sold later, and maybe they'll round up a bit to have some extras to sell once they're in stock, but I ultimately wouldn't count on these being available for long enough to get marked down. I could see this being a situation where few people pre-order them because they're waiting for a sale, and when they sell out without a sale happening the aftermarket prices get retarded because so few were produced.

Farewell Tron

>>11760420
A lot of dumb people are in for a rude awakening when these Pulse exclusive made to order products don't end up clearanced out, and they have to resort to paying a scalper double.

>>11760449
hint: the secret is just to not buy it if it doesnt reach the price you think its worth. When I see a figure I get a number range in my head as to what I'd pay and if it doesn't hit it, I don't buy it.

Finally watched Tron Ares and surprisingly liked it. I wouldn't have minded even just Ares in his original red outfit but it just seems like everyone has little faith in the brand when even Hasbro has relegated the Legacy figures to being exclusives.

Damn, oh well.

>>11762314
I'd definitely be down for Ares and his cycle. Would probably also buy a white Ares variant. Can't say I'd be interested in anyone else from the movie though. Well... there's Julian Dillinger in his Sark cliffhanger form, but we don't even get to fully see what he looks like, so that would probably be a tough ask. Would have absolutely zero interest in buying ugly Asian girl or ugly black girl.

I would've easily gotten Ares and his cycle at least, and while I definitely want the Legacy figures, it just seems weird to double back on the previous films without cross-promoting any merch for the new movie.

>Well... there's Julian Dillinger in his Sark cliffhanger form, but we don't even get to fully see what he looks like, so that would probably be a tough ask.
Yeah between Ares seeking out Sam and Quorra plus the cliffhanger with Julian, I'm definitely hooked what's to come but it just seems like the franchise is constantly stuck in a loop of being revived and then shelved indefinitely.

If they didn't want the Tron franchise to not die again then they shouldn't have made Jared Leto the face of the revival
>hurr durr this movie wouldn't have existed without him
Normalfags don't like that guy and everything he touches is poisoned now. The current gen doesn't give a fuck about his older roles. All they see is his Snyder Joker, Morbius, and his weird cult shit

>>11762551
Liking Tron Legacy because "muh childhood sci fi movie" is Reddit as fuck.

I want these but Sam not having a combat helmet makes it feel like he doesn't belong with the others.

>>11760449
That's the thing though. Some of these people would only buy them at a REASONABLE price.

If they aren't going to be reasonable then they don't mind passing on the figures.
