Re: Marvel Legends discussion
Storm was going to be hard to acquire from the get go. Shes been on just about every Legends collector's wish list in this costume for a long time, was basically the last remaining core character from the Jim Lee XMen era/animated series (I know we are getting a new Jean but Hasbro did technically make one already).Couple that stuff in with the fact that shes in a pretty weak wave overall and it doesnt spell success for restock. If I'm a retailer and I'm selling maybe 2 of 6 figures and potentially sitting on the other 4, I wouldnt restock either.
Dr Doom is another single carded figure I see this happening again with. Best bet is to always pre order an entire wave with someone you know will in fact fulfill said order. Keep what you want, sell the rest for your cost and try and break even.
I'm done with Amazon for pre ordering figures. I did however put in an order for a single Storm and I've yet to receive the "SOL" email from them. Interested to see what happens there, I already have the wave so I wont be crushed if it falls through.
