I’d be happy to get Jaga and Grune and realize they were already sculpted, but they don’t bring us closer to what I consider the essential remaining characters.

Well said, CHOOCH.  That is exactly what I meant!  If you watch the video, you can actually see Pixel Dan change facial expressions when Brandon says that.  I could be wrong, but I think it actually shocked him a little.

It's hard to be positive. think.gif

IMHO, this is the ultimate dick move. 

Without the Toys R Us, Mattycollector.com, the online Mattel Shops and the Mattel eBay store, they have no way to distribute these pieces even if they can find enough people to buy them.  My best guess is that these would be a GameStop exclusive.  I've no interest in these but probably have at least 30 GameStops in my area.  But what if you live in Montana?

Or maybe that dumb twat at Super Seven can blow some more smoke up his own ass.

For $45 a piece you can get figures you already have!

But a lot of folks don’t have them, they routinely sell for $100+ each on eBay, these ones come with quite a few extra accessories, and it would’ve been a massive fail if they didn’t at least start the relaunch with an opportunity to buy the main hero and villain.

They can’t just wheel out Grune and expect a bunch of folks to gobble him up when they don’t have Lion-O

Get out of here with your logic!  I feel this is all about my wants.  But seriously, $45?  Even if it was 100% new material.

new Ah-Nold Conan line coming from Super7. The 45 price tag may be for the deluxe sets, Hopefully the regular line ups are still 30 https://news.toyark.com/2019/08/17/power-con-2019-super-7-turtles-new-thundercats-motu-wwe-and-more-360209?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook&fbclid=IwAR1YvucFX_y2qqTW2rUph9A_IVtHKzEwOpxPVR-V4AEztC9EOyMOfRb_IjA.

I thought Brian meant that from now on, ALL S7 7" figures will be Delux-ers at 45 bucks a pop.  I could be wrong, though...

Oh....and because I'm a Wishy Washy leaf in the wind, I may get a T-Cat or two.  Definitely not many, though.
