Don't let Fremen see it! j/k

Anybody else find it amusing that it says "Milk 10th Anniversary" which is what they are doing.

Jokes aside, I'm looking forward to seeing it!

lol I was thinking the same thing.. like I don't get it, 10th anniverary of what?? OH, right, milk..! they will find any reason won't they .. I remember the funniest thing I read, was someone said that in a local newspaper they'd read the owner of HT had bought a multi-million dollar house, and the user posted a comment with a picture saying like "Hey!! that's our money"

I think it is just a different culture.. they just do whatever is popular and most wanted, and what they believe they can genuinely improve upon in order to have the best version out there.. not purposely screwing collectors.. Not merely for the $, but because the masses want it.. They don't look at the aftermarket and think there is money to be made, they just think the fans really want it.. It sucks - but I can see that's where they're coming from.. I do hate literally re-release after re-relaser, but I have to say, when i saw this thread posted and then saw that picture it just made me burst out laughing, like at 1st you've had enough, but then it is just too much that it makes you laugh

It is pretty funny though

lol, yes it is.

I disagree with them watching the secondary market though. I do think they hop in when they can make cash, BUT I'm fine with that. I've always been the type of person that thinks along the lines of "go ahead and rerelease the DOOM PF, sure, make a million!" lol

I know that's blasphemy to a lot of people, but if somebody can get what they're after without paying a mortgage payment for it, great!

I do agree that there are different cultures, their company culture is different, and the collecting community culture is different too.

Hmm I have to say I am curious.. I thought the first HT War Machine was masterful, though it did have that fading lights (in the helmet) issue.. but it was way more refined than any of the earlier Iron Man releases.. maybe they will make it battle damage or something

and that also made me laugh, a new re-release coming not even 1 week later
