You’re welcome. I had forgotten it was Zorax myself.

Do we think Neca will eventually put all these sets on their website like they’ve done?

My Targets are always a waste of time.

I think NECA will put many of the sets on their site but I wouldn't be so sure about having access to all of them. I think some of these "lesser" sets might not make an appearance. They're probably weighing the profits vs the logistical challenges of order fulfillment. I think they're very likely working on improving their whole online shopping experience after being kind of thrown into the deep end this fall so I suppose it's possible they'll get it all worked out where they can offer them easily. But with the way things are currently I'm guessing they'll want to limit the amount of product they themselves are responsible for. This would also serve to maintain the scarcity and "hotness" of the toys.

(and yes I know Randy specifically mentioned that not every set would be available, and gave the Rock Soldiers as an example. Randy is a proven liar so I take his statements with a grain of salt)

I'd like to see this, but I'm feeling that some of these packs - like the April and Casey packs - are just lost causes at this point. Never seen 'em once.

Don't even know if they are being replenished anymore.

I'm enjoying your reviews man, I appreciate 2 things in particular:

1. You bring in the retro figures and any other relevant figure and place them next to the toy being reviewed.

2. It's very clear that you're a long time collector, and thus, all that info you're throwing out is great.

The more prominent reviewers have resorted to a more formulaic approach and this more down to earth form is very welcome. Keep at it.

You know what that means, right? Whatever initial quantities that were released will be popping up shortly on the eBay accounts of Target employees.

Ok then... to quote Ian Malcom, “They were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.”

Also do we even have a placeholder link for this yet?
