Wow I'm glad we decided to do this now, WK only made about half the normal run of boosters/figures for Legacy that they normaly make so most places are allready sold out and cannot get more. Â GPP haven't had any for quite a while.
So what does that mean for us? Â Well our KC GL, Ares and Ultraman are going to be worth a lot. Â Some are speculateing KC GL might reach $50-60 on e-bay.
here's a quote from Bro. Magneto on the subject:
Legacy was the conflux of several elements. We had to plan this set far in advance of its actual release date, because that falls right in the middle of Chinese New Year. During Chinese New Year, our factory shuts down, and this lasts for approximately a month to a month and a half (as they train new workers after New Year).
Unfortunately, the scheduling surrounding Chinese New Year meant that we had to base the print run off of the performance of past sets and hope for the best, because we wouldn't be able to do any re-prints for quite some time - literally, it would hit sometime after Fantastic Forces.
Needless to say, Legacy sold better than we expected. Personally, I attribute it to the good PR campaign around it.
Will this be the trend in the future? No. But if you're planning on buying a case, ten boosters, two boosters, or trying to help your retailer plan for a Marquee, make sure you let your retailer know and make sure that retailer orders early. Early sales are always easier to guarantee, because if a distributor knows how many cases retailers have ordered before a print run commences, we can make sure they have each case they want.
So why did they produce such a small number? Well many distributers have lots and lots of hypertime and Unleashed. Only Cosmic Justice had previously sold out.
