Hasbro is killing this line with the hikes. They don't even have the "We have to pay Lucas" excuse with this line. They have gone up over $3 on the single figures in a little over a year and no this crap.
Really? I see him a lot here. Ever since the new revision case hit.

Really? I see him a lot here. Ever since the new revision case hit. I nearly did The Moonwalk when I found 4 of them at Wal-Mart the other day. I was also lucky enough to find 2 Vipers with them. Probably the best haul I have had at Wal-Mart in quite some time. I don't know why I like HISS Driver so much, but I have to say that he is certainly among my favorite in the entire line. |

As for the Target set, it just became a "no buy" item for me. I only wanted Short Fuse and C.C. from that set. Those 2 are not worth $63 plus tax.

I want the Mobat, the Crimson HISS and the Silver IG Destro in addition to the afore mentioned so I will still get it but I will grumble a lot.

Why does my intuition tell me that the Short Fuze figure will be a TERRIBLE disappointment second only to that horrendous TRU Grunt figure? Grunt was just horrible, but I am afraid that Short Fuze is going to follow suit. Let's hope that I am dead wrong on that one. But 63.00 plus tax is just under 70.00 grand total. 70.00 is a lot of cashola for a MOBAT. I already have enough HISS Drivers, Destros, Cobra Commanders and HISS tanks. I just want a motorized MOBAT to run down Cobra terrorists. Is that too much to ask? |

I think it has more to do with a horrendous economy and inflation running out of control than say the stores and Hasbro being greedy.
If you guys buy your own food, fuel and anything else you should already know this though....and it will get worse before it gets better. Get used to it. |

When these things came out they were at a good conservative price point of $4.84 or something like that. Has the price of plastic gone up? Or the cost of Hong Kong sweat shops? I don't think so, not enough to jack the price up. This is just the typical corperate mentality of : "Oh they are selling out the ass, so we can raise the price up to squeeeeeeeeze a little more out of our consumers." I bet if we stop buying (unlikely) the price goes back down lol.

good luck on getting anyone to stop buying. You'll just get called a complaining fanboy if you try that tactic. I however agree with you.
