ToyFarce News: Unavoidable - Collector Asks if Anyone Has a Beyithirr Dragon at Retail Price

As collectors worldwide shared a sigh of relief as the Four Horsemen Studios’ Beyithirr the dragon campaign ended (and they can finally pay rent again!), a familiar phenomenon has returned: the elusive collector who "just found out" about it and is now desperately searching for one, at retail price, as it is, of course, for his kid (it's his birthday!) ToyFarce investigated...

"I didn’t know about this until just now!" said a collector in a Mythic Legions Facebook group that had been flooded with Beyithirr posts for an entire month. "My son loves the Mythic Legions dragons. He's got all of them!" said the collector, unaware that Beyithirr is the first. "He’s been talking about this one for weeks. If anyone has an extra at retail or cheaper, I’d really appreciate it. Just trying to make a little boy happy on his birthday!". When asked about when the birthday exactly is, he replied "Right when Beyithirr is released, so late-2026 (unless there are some delays)."

The post was met with a mix of eye-roll reactions, skeptical comments, and many GIFs of Robert Downey Jr. rolling his eyes (one of my favorites!).

"The kid has a Mythic Legions shelf in his room" the collector continued. "It’s not for me, I swear! I don’t even collect these. Well, I mean, I have a few, but this is his favorite character... the dragon... Bayithar? Beyithirr? Something like that. I don't watch the show."

Other collectors were quick to point out that this happens after every crowdfunding campaign or pre-order window ends: someone appears out of nowhere, dramatically proclaims ignorance of the campaign, and insists on paying retail "plus shipping".

"It’s tradition at this point", commented another group member. "Every time, without fail. We have one for each wave, for every Figura Obscura drops, after every convention exclusives... There's always one."

Experts predict a surge in posts like this over the next few months, peaking again when the dragons actually ship. "That’s when the 'I missed the campaign, just looking for one for my sick nephew' wave hits" said one collector. "Followed closely by the 'I just want one for retail because I don’t want to support scalpers' phase."

More news at 11:00... Stay strong out there, dragon hoarders. You survived the campaign. Now come the retail seekers!
