A way to obtain unobtainable minion?

[Konicorgi]

Since I've already opened the can of worms in another thread... No! People already have to pay a decent amount of money to obtain these items in the first place. SE shouldn't devalue their own merchandise strategy just because a few players can't go without a couple of minions or costumes.

It wouldn't devalue it because it would be an option opened only for people above a certain amount of minion (150 ?), which mean not that much people. And this amount could change along with the increasement of the number of minion.

TBH, supporting pre-order culture is a destructive merchandise strategy in the first place and it should be devalued.

So SE adding incentives to get people to purchase something is "destructive", but people willing to shell out $50 for a minion isn't? The things are "worthless". It's just a collector's fallacy.

Read what I wrote very carefully. This isn't about the minions, this about people who paid anywhere from $40-$60 USD and received an item that could be redeemed in the game. I don't speak for SE, but it seems pretty silly to alienate those customers knowing they're the ones who will buy the next plushie, or drop another $50 for an OST.
