It looks like the first MGS Comic Con exclusive for 2023 has leaked.
In an interview last April, Max revealed that one of the SDCC exclusives this year will be a holographic speeder bike. Today, we have our first glimpse of the scout-class exclusive.
It will retail for $19.99 and will be limited to 1,000 units. However, some enterprising attendees have already listed it on eBay for a whopping $60 today. The listings are no longer visible, but one seller claimed to have 3 units.
We doubt whether these sellers actually have any on hand. In all likelihood, these are advanced listings by SDCC attendees, hoping to cash in on their future merchs.
To recap, there will be four MGS SDCC exclusives for 2023. According to Max, the packaging of all four models are designed for display. Some may even interconnect with each other to form a unified display.
Since this year’s theme is Return of the Jedi with its 40th anniversary, there’s a good chance the other exclusives could be related to ROTJ. Among the upcoming “regular” MGS lineup, we will have the Emperor’s Shuttle and the Amazon-exclusive Endor AT-AT, further proof that ROTJ is the overarching theme.
This year’s Comic Con tickets, known as “badges”, are already sold out. So collectors looking to score an SDCC exclusive will have to resort to third-party sellers if they haven’t already purchased an entrance ticket last November.
