All I know is I hope it's not a Pop.

I would LOVE it to be a POP!!! :violent3:

Much prefer that over a statue =P~

If it's a pop that's just gonna make it that much harder for me to get it if it's something I want.

I'm sure some toy and comic shops ordered several founders subscriptions just so they could sell these anniversary gifts, so you'll see people selling it ;-)

Not impressed with the 1st box thus far, all the sub boxes seem the same anymore really. They need to innovate some new format for them. Not a huge batman fan, I have my fair share of batman pops but the armor one isn't too appealing.

I plan on subbing on the next box, we'll see. Looking for some real unique and obscure DC stuff.

If you sign up now for the Cantina Box, you'll get the option to buy either of the first 2 boxes. You can just buy the First Order box if that's what you want.

I just signed up for MCC Deadpool box and got the option for any of the prior MCC boxes so I picked up the Avengers box. Villains was out, boo.

you are saying if you sign up for the deadpool box you have the option of getting the box with hulkbuster for $25?

That is correct. The only box that was not available to pick up after the fact was the Villain Box. So yes, if you order the Deadpool Box, you can buy the Avengers Box with the Hulkbuster for $25.

Wow, so they actually sold out of villains boxes!? Like...legit sold out!? 8-[

I actually prefer that...I don't care for the fact they are always available...takes away from being a supporter when you truly didn't know what you would get in your box...as opposed to just ordering it after the fact. Lessens the number of subscribers for them too when people know they can just wait until whenever to order the boxes...

Would love some hats in the DC boxes. :-)

WHY was the Villains box completely sold out?? Was pretty disappointed with Morbius, and a TON of people are STILL trying to get rid of him lol

I agree with you. I think they should retire boxes after a certain time frame, makes them more exclusive. I understand they probably still have stock they want to move and that's why they are still available, so when I saw the opportunity, I took them up on it.

They shouldn't, however, make more available after they sell out, yeah?!

OK...signed up. I didn't jump on it like I did the Star Wars and Marvel ones because I'm fairly over Batman. BUT - love WW and a ton of other DC characters so hopefully we get some cool stuff coming!

I just don't understand how so many were made after the initial boxes... A disservice to the loyal subscribers in my opinion. Reward the people that took the chance on the box BEFORE seeing it. The people who order the previous boxes with the next box (not everyone, but droves of people) just end up putting them on blast when they have to wait and wait, and wait some more.. It's an easy issue to correct.. lol

I'm sure they had them well into production before the deadline so they could ship them out shortly after. I assume that they had an estimated amount of boxes they would sell and at the end of the deadline they did not hit that number, so instead of tossing them, they made them available to newcomers. At least they are only available for those who subscribe to the service and only at that time of subscription.

I'm happy people can still get them..it's not that i don't want everybody to enjoy a Hulkbuster the same as i do! I just would've thought it would've been more similar to the Loot Crate gimmick; if you don't order before the deadline, you miss out. As a Founder...i would've expected a few things to of been a little different..but we'll see what they send for my anniversary gift lol

I think that previous boxes should not be available after a certain deadline. That could be before shipping the box for the first time, or maybe 1 box after but only to new subscribers. Then it's gone. It requires better demand planning and sales forecasting.

I think the reason they made so many more than their subscriptions was to have a safety blanket in case some orders needed to be replaced. I know especially the hulkbuster box they had to send replacements or orders went missing, or some arrived broken, but it is weird it's not sold out yet

Maybe I got the last one, ha!

Could do what loot crate does. Once the date is passed, you can't order that box anymore. However, every few months there can be a previous box sale.

Postby **Xifox** » Mon Jan 25, 2016 5:22 pm

I'm thankful that they allow you to purchase the past boxes, otherwise I would have missed out on something I didn't even know existed until after the fact. I understand why some don't like this idea, but it's hard to know about these things sometimes. I don't think people should be left out of it just because they didn't know about it until it was too late.

I'm guessing it is a hint at something else. A comic like Mysterious said or maybe a clue to a 2nd Pop or other item in the box.
