Not sure if this is the right forum or not, but I went by WM this morning on the way to work to look to see if by chance they'd thrown onto the racks any ROC stuff. Well, they didn't but I did spot some of the Star Wars figures in new packaging. They were all figures that have been released before, not any of the new Clone Wars ones, which I am looking forward to for a few of those.
However, it got my hopes up a little because it made me think maybe some new Joe stuff will be hitting pretty soon. I'll keep checking.

I haven't bought any Star Wars figures since the price jump. Nothing is really catching my eye anyway. I do want the new Hoth Rebel Trooper but I'm not paying $7.50 plus tax for him. If Joe figures reach $7.50 I'll walk away from them too.

Same here, for the most part. Picked up the medical frigate Luke, and Captain Needa, but otherwise I say screw it. If they drop us some ORIGINAL figures instead of repaints/new molds of old figures, then I'll start buying again. But only if they're original trilogy... I'll leave the rest to the kids that Hasbro wants to sell to (at $7.50 a figure... I know my allowance was never that good).

Eh, $7.50 ain't so bad.
Try paying $16 a figure here! (That's AUD. Which is about $12 US) Last edited by foor; 06-22-2009 at 12:24 PM.. |

I like the new packaging of the Star Wars stuff at least. I think part of the problem with the last wave (besides price) was the packing was so bland.
I did pick up some of the Clone Wars figures for my son and they were god awful. For the first time in my collecting history I felt ripped off and I refused to buy him any more. His interest switched to the Batman Brave And The Bold figures five minutes later anyway I had a few of the Marvel Universe figures when they first hit but like Interrogator said I couldn't justify paying $8.44 for them. They were okay but not great and I can't keep throwing that kind of money around on single figures. Plus I can pick up their Marvel Legends counterparts on Ebay for less.
