I’m order #36. But I’ll probably also make WS and sell that one. Patience, sir.
I’ll bet there won’t be 40 made and sold, let alone 400.
lol at this

I was 15. Now over 1000
Nice job! I’m somewhere in top-100 based on when it went thru and how many were in but hard to say for certain. Good enough for me to skip playing RS once again!

Ridiculous. There needs to be a non-sell pack in the store for 1 million stubs...
And completely remove any incentive to play Ranked?
You never took an economics class, did you?

Last year with Trout I was #7, or so I thought. The next day I realized I had missed a 0 and bid $100,000 instead of $1M.
Over 2000 orders by then so I had to slog thru RS to earn him. Everyone comes out of the woodworks for this last release, glad you can skip it !!!!
-
I remember that!! Felt terrible for you but then it didn’t take you as long as it would’ve taken me to “earn” him!

In the 800s. Will be a while.

You have this upside down bud (and BTW I have a degree in business economics).
Time in game is meaningless this late in the cycle. If they offered him for 1 million stubs some casuals might come back into the game and drop some real life $$$ to buy stubs and try him out before the game dies. No point in doing that when he is impossible to buy.
SDS gets nothing out of forcing dudes who have 5 million + stubs to play 50+ sweaty hours of Ranked Seasons to earn the Big Unit.

Yeah..... no.. some casual is not going to be lured back to buy 1mish stubs to get a Randy, that's a fantasy world

SDS literally makes their money by increasing time in game. The more online engagement, the more Sony Corporate is going to support the studio. And the more resources will be budgeted for future installments. It's in SDS's interest in promoting online play. That's why BR and Ranked always see the best rewards.

SDS makes money from selling games and selling stubs. They will stimulate more games sales next year by leaving a good taste in everyone's mouth. Wait list is now over 1,800 people...you think the dudes in the back of the line will be pumped when the game ends and their stubs were worthless because they can't even buy and use the best card?
-
Well, I’m still waiting on Gary Carter from 2020 and am no less interested in the game now then I was then. Sometimes waiting for something only makes one want that thing more. Maybe tomorrow is the day for Gary

They can earn him. For free.
Those who don't get Randy are choosing not to get Randy.

Ehh, not interested. He's only got 6 power vs RHP and can't even steal bases

Congrats, that's awesome. @Bob_Loblaw1984 too. I tried to put mine in but the app didn't update so by the time I got to my console 5 mins later I was number 988. I get that 250 innings of RS could land me Randy (that rhymed). I got Trout by grinding BR. But ugh.....RS is just not much fun when you can't hit well.

Hey 250 innings will give you a lot of reps hitting online. One AB at a time, you’ll start to get rolling.

I agree. I can’t wait until they put out a better 99 Mantle. I mean, why not?
