Not taking it too seriously, im merely commenting how quick people bandwagon a joke and take it to not very comical ridicule-fest. It should stop at the joke and a comment, haha its funny, lets move on. To me this kind of digression is the same as going completely off topic into "start a new thread territory" that is all. *smiles*

This is quite possibly the case, but any student or former student will tell you that an online wiki page is not the most reliable source of information. Who knows what the assembly line produced and destroyed.

The Castor Core Figure was planned for Series 2 of the Core Figures but was pulled at the last minute because of "a Disney/talent approval issue" and Spin Master could not - as the licensee - put the product on the shelf. The problem was fixed in time for the next wave, but future waves of all Spin Master Tron figures were put on indefinite hiatus because of dwindling sales.
"About 300 Castor figures produced were pulled from the casepacks and destroyed or distributed to the employees."

Bottom line is that no one really knows. And i'm not putting my faith into a wiki. What we do know is that magnum actually got one of the extremely limited, and that the rest of us will be watching the online outlets very carefully in case another one slips thru.

omg
I luckily bought the Clu cycle as my first core veh, and only recently learned it was Walmart only.
i saw an ULTIMATE sam, next to DELUXE sam, next to CORE sam, and immediately thought "What the sh*t, I have to buy three of the same effing character?" Have you seen the $5.99 clearance reduced Recognizer diecast case at Target within the last 3 months? Yep, the first line had different packaging and got slashed when new ones came in with different cardboard on them. I've not ever seen a Kevin Flynn or Rinzler deluxe disc at any of the Toys R Us, Target, Walmart, or brothels that ive traveled long and far to. I'm STILL missing these and i've been searching since December. I refuse to ebay/amazon them but it seem I will have to, no one on this forum is silly enough to trade one away. This is the kind of down-syndrome logic that spawns scalpers and ebayers. OMG VHTF! RARE! EXCLUSIVE! WONT FIND IT ANYWHERE ELSE BUY IT NOW FOR $199.99!!!
whorezzz

Ugh. My first toy collection and it will not be the most sucessful one. Likely my last. After this im going into collecting drugs, the resale value is way better if you go to the store with more quantity, and the consumers will always buy no matter how bad distribution is.

I actually think Spin master should have cut the 12" line to concentrate on the 6" and 3 3/4" lines.

The 12" figures were essentially the same as the 6" ones but with much less variety of characters to choose from and just.... bigger..... and it costs more. That's it! The features between those two scales were identical and when enlarged, their faults just became more apparent.

It's my opinion that if you're going to make a 12 inch toy, you make it amazing like a hot toys figure, or as a pre-posed statue like the big Mcfarlane or Neca figures.

Haha. Anyways, congratulations again for procuring the Holy Grail of Tron figures.

Yes this would have been a good prank and I'd probably get derezzed for it....lol

Thank you for the clarification.
Im simply stating that anyone can google "tron legacy castor core figure" and the first hit albeit a wiki page may not be the definitive authority on the topic. I myself have not spoken to anyone officially linked to the product line, so regardless of what i find on the internets, im always careful to provide the reference with the "fact" as to not parrot potentially false information.

You lucked out, man. Still can't believe you snagged a Castor and for retail to boot. I would be SO tempted to crack that guy out of the box. The cane looks so cool, and seeing real pictures of Castor packaged just, like Boba says... perfect example of what could have been.

So glad to hear he got to you in good condition, Magnum. Thanks for sharing some pics.

I will also add my congratulations on your find Magnum. Glad to see that it arrived safely and in great condition. Thanks for sharing the pictures too.

It's even more beautiful than I imagined.

Thanks for sharing pics Magnum. I hope once your case is finished you can show some more.

Honestly I feel like we all won a little with this one. This figure could have gone to someone who just wanted to profit off of it, or it could have gone for a king's ransom in the first place. Or it could have been snapped up by someone with no interest in this website, and we would have never seen such nice pics.

Glad you're able and willing to share Magnum, and I think I speak for us all when I say I'm a little jealous but very happy it's got a good home.order abortion pill abortion pill buy online where to buy abortion pill
