Sealed Case Of Poe Dameron/Riot Control Stormtrooper: Hoard Or Hobby?

An image has shown up on Facebook of someone (who may even be a reader of ours – not sure – it's why we're posting this as anonymous) who has purchased a sealed case of the Poe Dameron/First Order Riot Control Stormtrooper TARGET exclusive. I am assuming since we posted the news with the DPCI we're somehow indirectly responsible for this. While the comments on the actual post are relatively harmless, a few discussions outside of the thread are filled with a little bit of anger. Now, I feel a purchase like this is just plain silly. But if this person wants to buy a sealed case, why can't he? Now, hear me out. I am not saying it's OK to do this at the expense of those who are unable to secure this themselves. But if someone wants a sealed case, why can't Hasbro make enough to make this guys hoard completely worthless? Then and only then will the perceived greediness die out. If Hasbro made enough where there were plenty everywhere where the last few units needed to be cleared out on discount, then people like this guy would perhaps revisit the concept of "needing" a sealed case of six. Of course, finding that balance is the key. By the way, how does one possibly enjoy a sealed case of toys. I find that very alarming. Are you superman with X-ray vision maybe?
