Not sure were you’re getting $35 each? I paid $22 ea with combined shipping. Came out to $48 Every single listing on eBay is at least $35. Where exactly are they $22? Even in the "Sold" section there's no sign of any of them for that price. I’ll post the link if an admin gives approval.

Ringside should be the only place that gets any kind of exclusives. They're the only reliable suppliers of these figures

Ringside Exclusives seem to be unique in the sense that they are cheap and easy to get for months, but as soon as they no longer have them available the price tends to skyrocket on most of their figures.

That's also the same reason why RSC probably can't do more than the 4 exclusives a year that they usually offer. They're looking at a pretty significant up front cost for the figures, and it can take years for them to sell through their inventory. Last I checked the Jericho exclusive that came out like 5 years ago is STILL available. That ties up warehouse space and cash. Would it be easier for collectors? Sure. But I don't think it's realistic.

I truly will never understand why it’s asking so much just to get a street date for products that we want to buy and have them come out on said release date and make us happy almost everything in the world retail related has a release date and almost everything in the world fulfilled on that release date but for some reason toys seems like it’s asking way too much

i still say Amazon is better. RSC is fine. but since there a smaller company i get why they aren't spending to get them. However Target pays for them and just doesn't even care to supply them. much like Wally has been the last couple years. they seem to have no communication to get these toys to the aisles and online sites. which is a total fail.

You would think with technology nowadays that putting something online for purchase should not be such a clusterf***. Bad enough when Target was putting NXT exclusives up a case or two at a time, but this is a different situation.

Target: $25 each x2 + free shipping = $50 eBay: $35 each x2 = $70 Who wouldn't want to save $20 on the same 2 figures? Not sure were you’re getting $35 each? I paid $22 ea with combined shipping. Came out to $48 No way this guy paid 22 a figure, gtfo

I thought Sheik was $30 shipped but I didn't pay super close attention because I don't want him. So figure $53 and change give or take tax for everyone with Target. Pretty close to $55 on eBay if you snagged them right away. I wouldn't be mad if I spent $2 extra on eBay and had them already. I wish I would have just grabbed Perfect off of eBay when I first saw him, honestly. End of the day, Target is the cheapest and they likely end up on sale at some point on top of it.

How many times do I have to go back to the same ex-gf? All she does is cheat on me, manipulate me, take my money and then have her friends blame me.

It's not like it's this extremely high demand item. It might be to us but we are the minority when you look at it. These figs arent in the same category as let's say the Nintendo Classic or maybe some highly anticipated Star Wars or Marvel toy. It's a couple of repaints. Yes we here and tons of other people are waiting to buy these but I'm sure if they were released at the store we would be trampling over each other to get them.

Yes, Perfect and Sheik are available elsewhere to buy, but I was planning on ordering both figures and a few toddler items for my grandson. Same situation when I walk into a store for an exclusive, if it's not there, I don't buy anything else. Guess Target doesn't want my money ?
