Re: KOs and your purchase pattern

When mp coneheads came out at the high price point and (seemingly) limited quantities it really made me hesitate and consider the ko's. I've heard the argument that the retailers jacked up the prices. Sure but they wouldn't have been able to sell at those prices had takara produced more units. Its just supply/demand economics. I bet this marketing strategy drove a lot of consumers to buy the ko instead of waiting for the official reissue, which will still be overpriced imo.

Personally, I decided to pass on the official and ko. I have the budget to buy them but it's more of a principle thing to speak with my wallet. If they ever do another run and offer them at mp-11 reissue prices then sure or if hasbro does them 7 yrs later (eye roll), sure. Who knows, if I come across the yess model coneheads at $80ea, I may just be tempted
