It was meant to be a light hearted joke, seeing as our military is voluntary. Alas, I forgot where I was, I’ll keep any good natured jabs to myself and just get angry like everyone else.
Listed as “Almost Gone” now. Who wants to take the over/under on how long it stays at this description from this point?
Added: on the plus side, getting to “Almost Gone” after all the complaints and the “I’m not buying this garbage” posts, they can’t say there isn’t enough interest/market to make these toys/replicas/props/whatever’s.
That’s because it’s more than likely not almost gone, and their just using that to drum up more sales before they set it sold out and sell some more during the holiday season…
I know it’s likely a ploy, but even if its fake, the fact that they would set it to “Sold Out”, effectively ending any more sales of the item at least for the moment, then that must mean they got their money’s worth out of it, right?
Of course, I’m applying logic to the business practices of Matty Collector…so I’m probably way off on this.
Dan hit the nail on the head, given Mattys past underhanded tactics , I bet we see these on Mattys Black Friday sale page in " limited quantity " or on cyber Monday
