The people that get one are always happy that "it's hard to get"....
Being an exclusive sometimes doesn't mean jack. Sith Ani was an exclusive last year, still available. MK46 concept was an exclusive, still available. Many exclusives hang around for quite a long time. This was a rare occurrence that it sold out that quickly. Something that doesn't happen as often any more. Personally, I bet it had to do with SS not putting a limit. Exclusives means retailers cant order, so they usually personally order some and have employees order some so they can get a few. I bet we'll see this pop up on retail websites here and there. And I highly doubt they felt Punk Rock Spidey would be in more demand than Scarlet Spidey. That's the figure that should've been an exclusive.
Sith Anakin was up for awhile, sold out, then went back to PO after SDCC last year. I wouldn't be surprised if this does the same. HT is not gonna leave money on the table. The waitlist isn't even closed, it's still open on SS website. The longer it seems to be unobtainable, the more people will want it.
Patience and positivity will win out. I hope everyone here who wants one can get it... Damn the skeptics who want to rub it in your face at the playground that they got one and you didn't.. Their smart, your dumb...
