I just want them to put up Logan Paul, so I can snag one to use as trade bait. Haha I was thinking maybe I would go for Logan if and when they put him up, but then I thought he’ll surely have an elite so if I really want to have a Logan I would much rather it be an elite. |

They're really selling the ones they never sent. Can't believe Mattel would do this for an extra buck.

Just got to have patience. Ringside is one of Mattels biggest customers and ringside promotes their product heavily. It's just business. |

I missed out on the $65 but grabbed him at $75 the next day. Not that I wanted to pay $75 but what’s an extra $10!in the grand scheme of things?

Not sure I've ever gone back and forth on a figure so much. Missed it last year as I hadn't started an elite/ultimate collection at the time, and I'm absolutely waiting on a Cody with the full entrance gear, but I just can't help but feel like this is a really decadent purchase at that price. While I like the figure a lot more than those who dislike it bc of its imperfections, it is imperfect. At the original $45 that wouldn't have bothered me as much, but at $65 and now $75 that becomes a factor to me. Ik this is probably the "lowest," it will ever be from here, but I don't know a single person who believes this will be the last Cody figure with his entrance jacket. As much as I love Cody I'd feel like a schmuck if I paid that much for this when I still need so much else with the knowledge that more will definitely be coming. It's possible that no one will receive more ultimates/elites over the next 5 years than Cody, I think I'm content to wait.

People aren’t understanding that RSC did not get these for their standard bulk/retailer pricing, they had to pay MSRP like everyone else. But they bought a large quantity to make available to people who initially didn’t get one, so they obviously need to up charge a little to make it worth it for them.
As many other people have said, these were going for twice the RSC price on the secondary market before they listed these, so if you really wanted one but missed out, it’s still a great price.

I would say if you're a MOC collector than this is probably something you'll want to have because of the packaging and such, but if you collect loose this figure can be passed on. Cody will 10000% be getting tons of figures over the next couple years and they will probably be better than this one. It's all about preference though |

It's all about preference though That's exactly it I think, I'm a loose collector and now that we've gotten to this price point I'd kinda feel iffy popping it out of the package as the whole presentation is really nice. I think it's a virtual lock that we get a UE Cody at retail at some point, I except that to happen as soon as they're done pumping out this current figure tbh. |

Just got to have patience. Ringside is one of Mattels biggest customers and ringside promotes their product heavily. It's just business. I was joking lol |

It's possible that no one will receive more ultimates/elites over the next 5 years than Cody, I think I'm content to wait. It was more like $55/$56 after tax and shipping on Mattel Creations. So it really isn’t that bad if you use the 10% off RSC discount code which makes it $67 plus whatever shipping you choose. That’s still cheaper than what you’d be paying if you go elsewhere. |
