So, these Disney-Marvel figures...

Too bad this message board doesn’t have a thumbs up feature. There have been a bunch of posts I’d like to “like,” but I didn’t feel like I should quote them all simply in order to give an upvote.

Anyway, my oldest daughter ordered the FF set at the same time I did. In fact, she offered to give it a shot after I was already in the queue. She logged on as a guest, and got placed in the queue around 175 places ahead of me. How does that make any sense? But I’m glad she did. Her order was confirmed before mine, and got a shipping notice later that day or the next day.

The set she ordered for me arrived on Thursday. Problem is, she’s in Virginia, while I’m in Massachusetts. The torture continues!

We’ll see what happens with my order that is still in progress.

Exclusivity is killing a lot of collector interest.

As someone who shops a lot at Disney take it from me, they're all about exclusivity. It's become like their middle name. I get it, I guess; it makes people buy stuff because they assume it will be worth $$$ on the secondary market. By the time they learn that is not always the case, it's too late.

But can I say how much I hate it? Everything doesn't have to be a limited edition; it doesn't make it more fun to collect or own, for me, anyway. And it doesn't make up for the way shopping has become a chore rather than a pleasure.

I'm tired of my shopping being turned into an 'event'. I just want to buy the thing.

I tried to sign up for a Disney pin-buying event a couple of years ago. I didn't want to, but I really, really wanted some of the pins. Then I found out it was $40 to sign up, never mind the cost of the pins. Or you could pay double and go ahead of all the people who only paid $40. And the pins you wanted might be gone before your turn came up. And 2 of the ones I wanted were in those awful blind boxes.

So, no, I didn't go there. I bought the pins I wanted on the secondary market, though there's still one I'm trying to track down.

The one thing Disney does right, IMO, is to put a purchase limit on this stuff.

My set is still in progress, due on August 15th, even though no communication ever said "back order". But at least it isn't cancelled...yet!

Look what UPS dropped off!

I meant to ask, how are all the joints? Arms-legs-waist?

[powersthatbe]

My set arrived today too.) I also received over the weekend the FF movie legends figures from BBTS.
