After searching and calling Spirit Halloween, I called Rubies and was informed the adult pack SKU 200968 has been discontinued.

It's a damned conspiracy!As if the average consumer will be able to afford the finished product. What with the scalpers buying most of them up to resell at outrageous prices.

Hasbros was taking unlimited orders so anyone who missed out on placing an order then that’s on them. If anything they are lucky that people bought extras to resell since you can’t buy it anymore whatsoever. If there were no one buying extras to resell then those who missed out would have NO market to buy at all. Sucks that it’s an inflated price but that’s the only option. Those who wanted one had months to place an order.timeware wrote: ↑December 22nd, 2021, 7:30 am No one find's this convenient Spirit pulls the plug around the same time Hasbro does the Pulse pack?

I can still order packs here in the U.S. must be an over seas issue. I've had problems with Spirit selling out of stuff and having to wait to the following September for them to restock items. I'd wait till next year see what they have.I am in the US. their site was SOLD OUT, until a few days ago they had 60 for a few hours before they sold out again. (I got one)

There’s gonna be huge supply initially and people will be competing for demand and lower their prices.jonogunn wrote: ↑December 27th, 2021, 10:56 amInflated would be an understatement.

(I got one)Not just the packs. The Traps as well are sold out and I refuse to pay scalper prices. If Rubies or Spirit Halloween brings them back I'm getting one without hesitation.

No way they would just sell the pke, trap and goggles along with everything else without selling the pack. They probably got overwhelmed with Halloween, the movie, and Christmas. Plus supply chain issues, it’s probably their best seller. The person you talked to probably just wanted to get off the phone.The phone rep, Twitter message, and email, all replied with "discontinued". *shrug*

Great move on their part.jonogunn wrote: ↑December 27th, 2021, 10:56 amThere is never a justification for what scalpers do. And yes, Hasbro had a 2 per person limit on the packs.
