EFX wedge helmet is back?

[Darth Fetty]

On top of it all, that X-Wing announcement has a few blatant typos. $7,000 (x2) and apparently no one looked over the announcement for errors before publishing.

What's to stop any collectibles company from holding onto some of their limited items and then selling them later at bloated after-market costs? I guess there's nothing.

When a licensed company like EFX promotes scalping, what would you expect from regular Joe then...

EFX TIE's found in warehouse, screenshot for posterity:

Unbelievable, what they always find in their warehouses ... Maybe the biker scout has been waiting so long because they just did not find him.

 

[Aldo The Apache]

And another scalper’s price.

 

[Aldo The Apache]

Ridiculous.

$2,399 for a tie fighter; they're defiantly going off ebay prices. Who handles the EFX license at Disney? It'd be worth letting them know about this, companies aren't supposed to scalp their own product.

Heh... tell that to Ticketmaster

I'd rather pay this price to a collector from eBay. That way eFX don't get the money.

 

[Hammer3246]

Lol.. That's hilarious.

Hey! Look what I found back here!!!!

 

[oblagon]

EFX is probably trying to scrape together money to renew their SW license

 

[jkno]

Man, I would really like to take a visit in that warehouse. As we've seen so far is like a magic place, or like that warehouse from Indy. It's far more interesting than Lucasfilm Archives LOL

For posterity the EFX "warehouse found" items:

And there was also a McQuarrie Vader helmet for $7500

 

[russellsch]

How much you wanna bet they "find" a Vader Legend. That should be at least $5,000.

Apparently on their website they say they were looking in one of their warehouses, and found some of the limited addition of 750 wedge helmets. Just spreading the news if you guys dont know, and want one. Though you’ll still probably have to wait a year to receive it. They have also just revealed a few of the very limited Empire Strikes Back signature helmets. Update

All EFX Warehouse Finds

Limited edition Wedge helmets. ($680)
Luke ESB Signature edition helmets. ($899)
Vader limited edition is back. ($900)

The Major Scalping begins.

Update Luke limited helmet. ($799)
Limited Luke cameback again. ($799)

Thanks for reading,

Matthew

Got it all here I believe.

 

[Aldo The Apache]

Vader limited is back again.

 

[Aldo The Apache]

Vader legend for $1799 is here.

 

[Trooper_trent]

unbelievable

I'm curious if EFX's license agreement with Disney/LFL allows them to scalp their own product over the agreed retail price

Was wondering this too. Certain people over at the Friends of EFX Society (aka Rebelscum) seemed to think that was a ridiculous thing to suggest, and that a company trickling out seemingly every previous release they’d ever had and selling some for close to retail, some for thousands over was totally normal and totally cool. I wonder if Disney would even care if they knew.
