eFX TIE fighter at SDCC

I believe the edition size was solely determined by presales, and advertised "not to exceed 1000 pieces"... so that didn't change. As Fett_ish said there are always going to be extras made for warranty replacements. With Master Replicas there were eBay sellers who dealt solely in reselling damaged returns. I actually miss that as you could almost count on getting a "fixer upper" a lot cheaper.

This is a problem many US businesses have. If the product isn't made in China, then labor cost may be higher therefore resulting in the item being more expensive. The more expensive the item, the fewer will be sold (in theory).

It's us as the consumer majority are not looking to pay for something that would be triple if it was made in the USA. Look at fender they have a base model around $500 while a USA built model of $1500. I am willing to bet a majority nor willing to pay that kind of money. The ties would run about $3000 give or take
 
It may not be in their licenseing agreement - but I bet they could build it in the US as a kit :) wink wink...

But - that being said - I have a bunch of MR stuff and eFX stuff... I love all of them... problems and all.
