    Generations Selects packaging is so stupid. They have to actually open the boxes so that customers can see the product.

    How the heck does Singapore of all places get a super rare exclusive like the Pit of Judgement, when most of the big countries in the west didn't? That is some mighty strange distribution.

    Funny how these Countries still continue to get shit a ton of product in, meanwhile everywhere else gets slim picking and delayed orders, despite a pandemic going on right!!!

    AS IF WE CAN CONTINUE TO USE THAT FUCKING EXCUSE RIGHT?!!!

    Not really. Hasbro created them for online fan channels and didn't have ohysical stores in mind especially since people who cared about these would most likely know what the figure inside looks like already.

    Asian markets usually get things first. Don't give up hope yet. Edit not to mention the factories are over that way.

    Quintesson Pit Of Judgement set...The frontpaged news says Taiwan, no? :p 

    But yeah, in Singapore we did get the Quintesson Pit Of Judgement set in retail too.

    Attached a picture that was taken by myself about 2 weeks ago:

    20201003_135111.jpg

    Look at the price tag, convert this to USD currency & tell me if you're comfortable paying for it? :confused2 

    Do note that this was 2 weeks ago when the set was released in retail...So it would be right to use Pulsecon's pricing & not the aftermarket rates for comparison that is.

    Very cool, in Canada waiting for him at a store called ebgames and I might get the same chance, and by the looks of the price tag its $78 or $74, I think that's a steal if I'm thinking of the right currency, in Canada I thinks it's around $90-$100

    It's SGD $178 for us...That price tag was so badly printed & hence misleading. (It's about USD $132)
