At least scalping is getting some mainstream attention thanks to the Ps5 mess;

This is a larger scale version of what's going on with the Star Wars merch.

EB Games failed me once with Beskar Mando, but putting them up for order months ahead, like the upcoming Ventress in April, is definitely my favourite way to get these figures at this point. I hope they would have gotten the Cad Bane wave.

Same here. I got lucky after waking up really early yesterday. It's now a matter of my ahsoka shipping and getting that loyalist now.

Yea she did. This was posted on Oct 20 so this was probably before she started hitting Walmarts Nation wide in America. That's the only way I could see it selling for that much. It's quite a lot of money to spend just to brag on IG and message boards about how you got it before everyone else.

Hey I have a really silly question (or not) , just curious what people think, I have a Carbonized Boba Fett, I am an out of the box collector and like to have my stuff displayed but I have yet to take him of the box (the box and all is so damn cool), would people say, take him out of the box, or should I leave him in? what would you guys do?

I also remove all my figures from the box. If you are going to enjoy displaying it then open it. The choice is yours, make sure your collecting is bringing you joy otherwise what is the point?

^ This ^

Though for myself, I usually don't get around to displaying everything right away. So I leave it in the packaging until I'm ready.
If I happen to change my mind on it before that, then at least it's still sealed and I can sell / trade it to openers or MIB collectors alike.

I'd honestly just display. Carbonized Boba isn't going to be worth any ridiculous amount of money to be worth keeping in box.
