And the only reason I?m partaking in their events is to score a free figure. Last year I was able to get almost two for free other than shipping, and the year before that it was one. So I guess that the free ride is over and that?s perfectly fine as it couldn?t last forever.
And given how much I spend overall on this hobby it?s pretty ridiculous how into I was in collecting rewards that pretty much amounted to literally 1-2% of my yearly preorders.

Yeah I guess im just sick of doing 'events' that involve me wasting an hour in front of my computer hoping for at least a 1 dollar reward... and we see the top 3 out of Hundreds get the 'big' rewards which are difficult to impossible to get. Yes Im talking about the recent trivia ones not giving rewards.
And what you said, the average person can probably just barely scrape enough rewards together to get maybe a 50 dollar discount on something throughout the entire year, if that. I think with the limitation on rewards, they want to try and prevent people from getting enough to get free figures.
