Have you ever seen those......Comic Convention exclusives?  You know the ones.... Convention exclusive limited to 500.

Wizard World Exclusive only 100 copies.

Then, you see at a convention or other event, and like one guy has like 20 of these lying around. Or on E-bay and you see like 200 floating around..... umm isn't it only 100 of these for the entire world?!?!!  I just don't get the availablility of these so called limited and exclusive deals.

You'd think they'd be harder to come by.

YOU WERE POUNCED ON BY THE BIG-CAT!!

Maybe they meant only 100 would be available at the convention?  The other 400 go to CGC for the publisher to flip via dealers???

Actually, convention exclusives are just existing variants with a label denoting which convention it was exclusive to. There may be thousands of this variant, but only 100 with the label from Wizard World Chicago. Of course there may also be 100 with Wizard World Texas or San Diego also.

Same thing with Jay Company variants.










Where does he get those wonderful toys!

I have yet begun to surrender.
