Quoted from Frax:Are they acutally re-running the 1st gen and store exclusive ones? If so... LOL I TOLD YOU SO.
They've announced new run of Marth, Little Mac, and Villager in Japan and UK...so obviously they'll do it here, too. Best Buy says they're getting more Meta Knights in May. For the life of me I can't figure out why Target didn't get MORE Rosalinas....each store got less than 20 and they were gone within a half hour. What's the point of making an exclusive deal if you don't have the product to sell? Rosalina's the only one I buckled on and bought from a scalper - a Target employee, no less.
Apparently Rosalina and Meta Knight are easy to find in Mexico right now lol. Nintendo's website does say something about them being exclusive at launch - so, eventually they could make them again for all stores. The only 2 I still want right now are Pit and Little Mac. I'm not collecting them all - but just the characters/franchises I like.
I find my self using that Pinside term - Nintendo's "leaving money on the table". They really are...people could buy a bunch of figures for what one is being scalped for...hell, they could buy a figure and a GAME! Nintendo's giving money away by not having all the figures more available. Pinball machines are one thing - but little $12.99 plastic figures? If there's demand, flood the f*cking stores!
