Being an exclusive, scalpers really have no say in the availability of the item since it's made to order.

Tend to agree. KR Knight was a local release, but now he's consistently three times the price. So stupid I missed him when he was out.......

Magnugiga CERTAINLY isn't worth the obscene aftermarket prices. And as Locke said, you're MORE priced-out getting them seperately.

One other thing to consider: weight. I'm sure this came into consideration when deciding who got what Advent Beast. Dragredder, Goldpheonix and the like, were necessary and didn't weigh much. From a shipping/cost mindset, makes sense. Plus the aforementioned Genocider was made possible because of this selling ploy. It's a dick, I feel ya, but at least we have the choice of what Riders we want at decent prices.
