    Man I wish I got one for 250 but I don't mind the 315ish I got it for. Still one of my top ten figures.

    It's amusing reading some peeps responding to your good deal. Sadly though, not unexpected here.

    I also just saw one on a Facebook group being sold for $250, so yes you can get one for that price

    I decided to bite the bullet and reach out to Hasbro Pulse about getting a new Victory Saber. This might be a dumb question, but what do you guys think makes for an ideal subject line?

    Something like "HasLab Victory Saber Issues Resolving"?

    I had thought that BBTS, EE and such would purchase an allotment of VS to sell, as they have with other haslabs, but never saw anything go up. I had kind of soft-assumed that when the 2nd QC batch gets released, once those are divvied out, 'extras' would go to fill domestic reseller orders and there MAY be another batch of retail Star Sabers before the end of the year. I have zero confirmation on this of course.

    I’m not sure why you would believe any of that.

    Because it happened with Unicron, and there was believed to be jumps in VS's numbers due to retailer purchases, and it makes more sense than junking the remaining stock?

    Yes, there were retailer batches pruchased, but I kind of assumed that was to meet their orders placed through them. Also, we already saw the leftovers from those go up. TFsource immediately started selling them at a markup once they started arriving.

    The availability on these Haslabs are rather limited. Also, I suspect that the peice tag and size of VS makes him an easier sell than Unicron. He seems to be selling out in places that make him available, and rather quickly at that.

    Some have gone down the aftermarket route so most probably a No. Some are lucky enough to get close to SRP or even below. ;)

    I don't see an issue with this remaining in the News area, specifically since HasTak may be offering replacements in the future which would count as news.
    To discuss the figure, the Appreciation thread in the Toy discussion area is available.
