You should be happy you aren't a Loyal Subjects Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fan then. They have a line with different outfits for each turtle ... including a 1/100. Pretty sure you'd lose your mind. Thankfully I don’t then and don’t have to worry about that I just think it’s sad they’ve tricked people into buying a cheap ass figure for $50+ because they released it again in a special box with a low quality shirt in the back. Same figure comes with Omega for half the price right now But that's not just a Jazwares thing as much as you want it to be. Mattel does the same scam.

Not sure how to post photos here but if you type in CM Punk AEW Supreme figure into google image search you’ll see the original prototype of the Punk supreme. Even the jacket is different from the one we were originally showed. Seems like they were planning to use his attire from the Dog Collar match with MJF, but maybe decided to change that after it got its own exclusive. thanks I will try and see if there are some pictures

According to their website that 1/3000 Hangman is a top seller this week and I’m like genuinely disgusted by that. I’m mad at Jazwares for making that and I’m disappointed in people for buying it it’s mostly scalpers thinking they can get a profit. A friend of mine who doesn’t know anything about this figure stuff bought 8 of them and tried to sell me one while they’re still available online lol I believe it’s more than 3000 btw. idk what's funnier, them lying and producing more than 3k or them selling so little merch that it out sold everything else.

Mattel doesn’t charge a premium for the same Roman Reigns Elite with blue belt they’re all the same price

Mattel doesn’t charge a premium for the same Roman Reigns Elite with blue belt they’re all the same price But they did charge us for Hogan/Zeus (for people that just wanted Zeus) when you could just wait for Zeus later, and we'll get an Elite Logan Paul ... no need to buy the exclusive, or the various RSC exclusives that are just an added shirt or two and a cool box, all the Usos look pretty similar to me, etc.
The funny thing is, if you'd been able to get all these Jazwares figures you've been whining about ... you wouldn't say anything about the company.

go to . The wholeshebang website. They still haven't had UR11, UM 5 or 6 in yet. message the guy who owns the whole shebang. He said he should have all pre orders in by the end of September. He said he changed his supplier because jazzy wares Uk 🇬🇧 were too slow in getting the figures to him. Surprise surprise.

The second Zeus isn’t an ultimate it’s not the same and it is also cheaper and it’s not limited to a numbered amount of pieces it’s the one kinda limited edition figure they make all year so there’s nothing to complain about Maybe Jazwares should try making something actually widely available to people and they wouldn’t get complaints about 10 months of no figures that still isn’t fully solved.

That's not how toys work in 2023. Limited is popular. I'm sorry you can't get figures. But don't blame the company when people can indeed get them. You just want an easy, cheap, quick way to get them ... which is logical, but that's not how it works.

A company that can't even ship their mass-market product with any degree of reliability doesn't deserve credit for making limited editions. And that's not really toys in 2023; most major companies just aren't making necessary figures this limited anymore. Loyal Subjects is up against two well-established collector companies holding the same license more successfully (and a third company doing mass-market numbers with the Turtles); FOMO and aftermarket value are tools that might make sense for them to employ. Jazwares has a captive audience and toy aisle shelf space and they're still playing the dumbest games with this property.
