I was waiting on BBTS, but now I'm just gonna skip it.

Now that sounds like the price point I was expecting. At that price, I'm definitely in the market!
I've been quite keen on the security forces female figure from the very beginning, and I think she'll go very well alongside the rest of my figures.

Same here. A twenty dollar markup doesn’t sound like bbts at all.

Long time lurker here but I wanted to voice my concern over BBTS. They've been my go to for years. If they can't get the MSRP down to $25-$26 I'm gonna have to pass. Though I'm open to other options that don't break the bank on shipping.

The BBTs listing has the Wayfair online Tax and the Trump Tariffs in the price. United States companies only. The locker toy listings have no Trump tariffs and no online taxes since it's in Hong Kong. --------------- This is just the beginning where foreign companies take online business from American companies crippled by Tariffs and taxes. |

Also, toys don't appear anywhere on the tariff list: https://www.scribd.com/document/3818...a-Tariffs-List Winning? Not so much. I hate the tariff bullshit as much as anyone, but you need to be honest and correct when you talk about it. https://www.marketwatch.com/story/wh...son-2018-09-21

I'm pretty sure the "winning" comment was sarcastic, but I'm otherwise not touching the subject. Anyways, $45 from BBTS is pretty steep. I do have to wonder about the logistics/decisions behind this. The Locker Toys pricing is fair, but hopefully another source will be able to offer them closer to the MSRP at some point. A few dollars saved per figure here and there adds up quickly (which we can then spend on more figures!).

Yes, many of these similar ball-joint waist designs are very versatile, not unique to anyone!!!

Did I forget to put a sarcasm sticker on my post?
