FTC-EXCLUSIVE! Limited Edition FTC JOKER IN OPERA OUTFIT from TOYCADE!

[melkorjunior]

What th'? No interest in these variants. I'd rather see them extend the line with generic henchmen for Penguin, Joker and Catwoman. Simple enough, same outfit but swap out a few different thug heads.

I'm actually using my Mego repro original Riddler as a thug for the '66 version Riddler.

I'm not sure why all the doom and gloom over this particular figure. This is perfect and what an exclusive figure should be. Not popular or mainstream enough to warrant a large production run, and not a figure everyone wants or needs in their collection. Just a fun variant for the handful of completists who will actually want it.

People are worried because exclusives are a slippery slope and lots of collectors have been burned by them before. Hopefully this Joker exclusive is a special case.

Did we learn NOTHING from Playmates 1701 fiasco? I think not.

I wonder if its an exclusive of 450, with nine outlets carrying it.. each witha count of 50?

i remember the playmates star trek fiasco,i collected those figures and still have them ,but i hated the
limited runs on some of those,i wanted a completed collection not a part time job trying
to hunt them down and paying high prices for them.still since its at that sight and its a retro mego
ill have to think about it ,its tempting,i just hope figures doesnt pull a playmates anymore.

For a figure like this, I'd rather have a costume pack similar to Action Jackson in the old days.

I'd be curious to see the packaging. Still don't want it and wouldn't pay $50 for it for sure but I do think its cool for the folks who are into exclusives to get a shot at this "investment".

I havent been collecting the 66 figures but I think I would like it better if the packaging was different from the regular line. Then it doesn't feel like you are 'missing out' as much if you don't get it.

I just got a Toycade email update that my preorder will have a price reduction to $37.95

I'm amazed at all the hatred towards the figure. Will that be the reaction to the pink cowl Batman and Surfer Batman should they happen?

For $50? Probably so.

I just received e mail notification as well, well not just now at 9:55


Thank you so much for your order! I wanted to let you know that there will be a price reduction for this figure! The price will reduce from $49.95 to $37.95. You will see this update on your invoice when your order ships. Thanks again!

Who knows maybe it drops again before it's all over.

[Mego Milk]

I love it!
Its perfect!
Great replica of an awesome episode!

Hatred seems a bit of a harsh assessment of valid concerns about price and over saturation of a figure.

I just got the note too. Makes me happy.

As far as variants, I will more than likely get them. These are New Megos getting released, even if they release the pink cowl Batman as an exclusive. I used to collect JLU and have a complete collection including the variants so of course I am going to collect the Megos. I am waiting on the classic Earth 2 version to get released from the Batman line.

[megalomaniac001]

I can see how someone who wants to collect them all can be bothered by this limited editions. I personally am practically in therapy trying trying to hold back my completest leanings. I am now taking it one series at a time and trying to only buy the figures I really want. I can thank the almighty dollar for that! With all of the great figures coming out in Mego format I just can't afford to buy them all! From the looks of the comments, many here are not interested in this kind of variant for this kind of price. Hopefully, that means that FTC will be able to meet the demand for this figure without burning those who really want to get it. What would really get me steamed up would be seeing a desirable figure like a Teen Titan scale Robin being released in limited quantity!
