It Is Because It Is Out Of Production Right Now.... [No Really I Am Serious]

[HShawaii]

ah ok.. i hope they bring it back. Have they ever brought anything back into production?

[DingoDarkly]

The rarer something is the more someone can charge for it. Life is unfair... unless you're the seller of course.

It Always Does Go Back In Production.....You Just Have To Wait....

Hopefully after sotm comes out.

That's good to hear. I do understand supply/demand economics. I just wanted to know a bit more than that.

Knowing that it's not in production helps a lot. Thank you for that.

It seems there are a lot of people out there with more money than brains. Wave 3 will be back in production again, and probably soon. Then we'll get all Wave 3 from Housemouse or Funagain for $50. In the meantime, I'll repaint my extra Krav maga to look like Microcorp and my Tarns to look like Gorrillinators. You know... with shields.

Supply and demand.

Right now, the search function is broken. I do not know when it will be up again. But their are many topics on this very same subject. Wave 3 is out of print right now, like Wave 1 and 2 before it. E-bay prices skyrocketed on those too while it was out of print. The key is waiting because 1 and 2 did resurface after a while. Supposedly it is the same with the flagbearers. They're supposed to resurface around the holidays.

I dropped $120 on all four after shipping. It is the best wave though, in my opinion. I hope it does come back, I know a lot of people that don't have the money like I do.

Welcome to the boards Richie Rich.


Wave 3 will be re-released. We've seen waves disappear before and they have always resurfaced later on. Wave 3 will be no different. The same price insanity happened with Wave 1 about 18 months ago, but Hasbro supplied to once again. Have faith that same thing will happen again. Remember that this game isn't collectible. Hasbro is in the business of selling as many products as they can - they are not in the business of making some units rare or what not.
