Can't picture much parents walking by this and grabbing it with the $140 price tag for their kids

Reminds me of when I was in a card store and some kid, probably 6-8 yrs old, stepped up to the counter pointed to a bunch of Pokemon cards then pulled out a fifty from his wallet.

I don't know about anybody else, but when I was that age, I was lucky to have a five let alone a fifty.

I look at all the toys my nephews have and I didn't have a tenth of what they have today. Hell they have Playstations, Wiis, and other gaming consoles that I don't even have now and they're not even in double digits in age yet.

Re: CW Devastator Pre-order @TRU.CA

When their other toys are iPads, Xbox Ones, and WiiUs, $150 for an actual toy stops seeming like a crazy amount. Especially when you're desperate to have them do something that doesn't involve staring at a screen all day.

Re: CW Devastator Pre-order @TRU.CA

I thought it was funny that you think that $200 is expensive for a toy and you think that kids don't kniw who devastator is

+1

Kids these days only care about video games, tablets, etc....

Parents rather spend the money on a tablet vs devastator

It is for us collectors.... That's my opinion... Lol
