I shudder when I think about the comic shop mark up on those figures, most of which aren't worth close to $10 - especially the early stuff.
I would like to think that without a movie the prices will go back down but something tells me that's unlikely. Mostly because I think Hasbro won't do much with Joe, including trying to get big box stores to stock them again. The majority of collectors may be happy shopping online but without big box stores like Wal-Mart and Target, we all lose.

I wouldn't count TRU as a major retailer, they're certainly not in the same league as Target or WM. Those two stores can make or break movies, books, games, etc - if you're product is in those stores you've got a better shot than most.
