Well I'm glad its just old stock and not a new print run. I don't care that GSX would be more available and possibly cheaper (I have a full set minus Juggernaut and Duos, but the most I spent on a single piece was Phoenix at $30)

The idea of making new print runs of a set far after its release is not a line I want to see crossed. If any set could just randomly come back it'd make players hesitant to buy/trade incase a pieces value suddenly drops/jumps and I'd rather not be waiting on the release of a set that was just released X months ago

I got some sealed GSX that came from Diamond West recently that came with a con Ms Marveland Wonder Woman. These weren't reprints just old stuff. I'm not sure about a new printing, but they're around. Check with your stores rep first.

A store has to spend over $600 on buying Hulk in order to be eligible to purchase 1 brick of GSX. I don't think there are many places that will be interested in getting 5 cases of product they can't sell in order to get 1 brick they can sell.

So.. the "sold out" product was simply misplaced strategically do solicit more sales from the already devout customers?

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM Reminds me of the pokemon days.... "Sold out, maybe a new shipment in an hour."...400 people in line.

....The most confusing thing is the thing you are confused about....

When I went to the Alliance Games open house in Ft Wayne last September, we took a tour of the warehouse out there. We noticed that they had tons of cases of GSX stacked in a corner of the warehouse that was roped off from the Open House attendees. I asked a Alliance employee what they were doing with all the cases of GSX and I was told that they didn't know what they were going to do with them and all he did know was that they were under orders to not list them in stock for sale. I'm guessing that they were left to use in promotions like this to push back stock like IH out of warehouse.

There was venues that did not get any product, here they are withholding product. Not even releasing it normally. So they help make the shortage. There is no words to describe the level of disgust that I feel toward Alliance/Diamond.

1 year ago: "Wizkids is the worst because they refuse to release more GSX and its really hard to get, and I want it!"

Now: "Wizkids better not ever release any more GSX because I spent too much money to get it and I dont' want anyone else to have it!"

Personally I wouldn't want a re-release of GSX at all. And I never have. But that doesn't even sound like what this is. How much could they possibly have? 100 cases? VS the thousands in the original release?

GSX was so good, but it was missing ALOT of high level x-men and X-related characters. It doesn't need re-released, it needs a sister set that fills in the gaps.
