I think this is an area where TRU will try and focus more, if they can.
Exclusives mean you don't have an option as a consumer, and as such, if you have more of them, you can get away with the ridiculous prices.
The only good thing about that, is that eventually you get a stinker (TF Draculus) and that exclusivity hurts you to the point you end up having to clearance them, possibly at a loss.
For me it will suck, because I am invested in the GI Joe Classified line, and TRU is the only game in town for the exclusives (Cobra Island, Python Patrol, Tiger Force). So exclusivity, plus smaller supply means I have to make the calculation of whether or not I am willing to pay the extra high price for figure that won't likely be there the next time I check.
Oh joy!
