LOLPutting in an order for a complete set sometime today Haha, right? I saw my name as one of those being thanked and was like “I'm buying a full set!" They really could've ignored us, but the fact that they listened AND thanked us...crazy! I do hope that this is the beginning of WLF taking the opinions and comments from their fans into account.

Speaking of which, in the update on the chibi figures they emailed, I noticed they mention you by name.
chrysalis!but they don't ship till DECEMBER?
You know, i am even surprised they thought it was a good idea in the first place to have it as blind boxes. WLF clearly didn't know or understand how/why blind bags/boxes work. xDYou can't charge $15 for a blind box figure and expect people to be content with shelling out $300 just to get all eight figures (and end up with extras you may not even be able to sell off). You have to price them cheap to get people to impulse buy, and not question if "if I buy this blind bag/box for $___ , would I be okay if I don't get the character(s) I want." $15 is too much for that. I honestly cant think of a single blind box/bag figure series that normally retails for more than $10 each, even from Japan (of course by that, I mean if you convert their normal price from yen to US dollar, and excluding anime conventions or stores where they raise the price a lot).

You know, I was pretty sure the Funko boxes were around $10, aren't they even more at Hot Topic? Or am I remembering wrong?
