    Not for Ecto Prime. He was limited to 1 per customer.

    Hehe Yeah! I’m a work in progress :p 

    I agree with some of the other stuff you had mentioned. I missed out on the free Premium membership. It would be a worthy perk if it was included at no charge. For example, make it an annual bonus when a customer orders or preorders $200. Like how so many stores have with their points card. Give people the option to buy it outright at $50, but also a way to claim it with sales gates. Free shipping is all too common today. Yes, we know the costs are hidden. It simply isn’t a selling feature enough to warrant a big price tag.

    For this years convention exclusives...it is unfortunate they sold out so quickly. I feel for those who missed out. I’m not sure what Hasbro could do to make it better. Creating more simply drives down the value of the con exclusives. It is nice that they offer these for someone who can’t make it to a con. For me, the closest are a 6 hour drive, to Toronto, or an 8 hour drive to NYC. The con in Montreal is, surprisingly small and lacks Hasbro presence. Hugely odd since their Canadian HQ I’d here lol! Any exclusive anything is bound to be decisive. There’s no way to ensure these items go to fans who want it instead of those who wish to profit from it.

    I looked at that one and balked because the seller is from China and most of his feedback is from accounts with 1 or 2 feedback. Also, all of those accounts are no longer registered. Good luck, and I hope you get it!

    Cool, you got some figures cheaper. I prefer to buy what I want instead of waiting to see if something might be cheaper a year later.

    Yeah, if I wasn't a member due to the extended promotion, I don't think I would've jumped on for fifty bucks either.

    If there were more to it like the half priced deluxes being available for a short period of time more often or more perks like exclusives that aren't also available pretty much everywhere else for competitive prices, maybe I would see more gain in the investment.

    But I see MP hound is actually six dollars more than BBTS if I consider "free" shipping to four dollar shipping.

    Maybe it's "entitlement" but I think that the least they could do is offer this:
    SmartSelect_20190905-133842_Chrome.jpg
    For less than this:
    SmartSelect_20190905-133828_Chrome.jpg
    When you're paying for membership.

    In regard to MP10G specifically, I would like to know what deal was made that this NTWRK pre-convention sale ever needed to happen.

    It's crazy seeing people complain about not getting Prime and their solution is "well they should have offered more on Premium Day for all of us" . My questions to them are #1 Who many Prime did they have in stock #2 How many Premium members are there? EVEN if they held ALL the Primes just for Premium members, if there are more members than figures someone is still going to miss out.

    I for one will be paying the $50 when it's time to renew. Even if you break it down to $5 for shipping that's 10 times I'm not paying for something to be shipped and the convenience of not having to go out looking for figures works for me. So while everyone who is saying they won't renew that's just one less person to deal with next year. So keep complaining cuz that will make others not want to join either, you're actually thinning the herd even more.

    Don't try to convince them, it might work for some and then that's more members to compete with next year

    By the time you read this, you've likely also recieved notice but my shipping notice was emailed 06:14 EST. However, it is slated to arrive today via FedEx.

    I was surprised to find my Ecto-1 Prime was delivered on Saturday... yet this morning I wake up to an email that it just shipped from HasbroPulse.

    At least some things haven't changed.

    To be honest I am happy with the MT Gundog myself.
