That is for sure. You can't tell me it takes 3 dollars more worth of oil to make a 4 inch action figure.

I thought the comic packs had gone up about a dollar or so?

I find it surprising that you complain about not being able to find stuff despite clearing out an entire store once.

Demand by joe fans. Really where is your proof?


I'll bet. And if you buy out all those cases, don't complain about not being able to find stuff playboy.
I wouldn't call that "Clearing out an entire store" playboy. Because I did not bought ALL of them. Just got what I needed.

As for the demand by the Joe fans and proof, hmmm.... I wonder what prompt Toy r Us and Target to mark-up the 25th to $7.99?

If I managed to get 100 each of the Snow Serpent and BATS, I wouldn't complain. However, if I should find none on the pegs since the release of wave 9, of course i'm going to complain. Shoot, I only have 1 each of the Serpy and BATs.

Btw, are you from Macrossworld?

I think TRU did increase them 1.00 dollar a few months ago, but the 3 stores I mentioned have not.

The thing is, I didn't mind the 6.84 price point. But 7.99?

I'd happily pay $7.99 if all the figures were the quality of the BAT, Snow Job, or Torpedo.

I no longer buy single carded figures as it just doesnt make sense. I can spend 18 bucks for 2 figures or for roughly 3 bucks more pick up 4 figures? gee I wonder which one Imma do :>

Well, about cleaning out a stores entire stock, I personally couldn't care less, I just question how one affords this, (stimulus checks) , I'd rather invest my money in a cd you're more likely to have a higher and garanteed return. AGent GHQ thats not directed at you specifically, I have one who cleans out a toys r us buy me, which chaps my ass to no end, he goes to Frank and Sons and sells, I'll never give him business, I'd rather do without. But like I always say 8.00AM in the morning is just to early for me to get up. I don't have BATS and Serpents do to laziness. So I just pull a BBTS.
On another note stores need to order so much product that if someone were to say "clean out a store" they'd need way more than one stimulus check.
