Exactly. I wasn't going broke, but I don't know if the joy of having these $100 was any higher than the joy of $20 retail figures. And I'm like you and collect a lot of lines, and I hit a point where I was getting too much for the space I had and didn't feel like I was appreciating what I had, so I've been thinning out what I get and trying to make a list of what I hope to get and stick closer to that. I loved those storm MK figures, but I'm ok to have the chunk of change in my pocket in space of it.

I was all in, but they kept upping their prices to $80-90 a regular figure and then the first few were going for so much on the aftermarket I just had to nix it and sell them. Great figures, and I know they're imports so they aren't cheap. But it's quite an investment for a line.

You can watch the show in Tubi for free... You know they make this news on purpose to see how people react to it... This was planned.???

give the license to like Jazwares...pretty pleeez

Street sharks? Uh....yes please! Storm would be perfect for these due to their bulk and how the softer plastic overlays allow for the best articulation
