How has no one reported this? Come on people. I need you to keep me informed. Well, maybe my ability to use the search function isn't that great. So maybe someone else reported this.
I first came across this information on: Shortpacked! webcomic by David Willis -- Toys Are Serious Business and Shortpacked! webcomic by David Willis -- Toys Are Serious Business So, I looked into it and found this: Hasbro profit up; toymaker to raise prices - MarketWatch Did you guys know that? Why didn't you tell me? Shame on you. Shame on all of you. Gaelinic

Reuters places the price hike "in the mid single digit range." Some sites are reporting that as a 4-6 percentage increase. And, of course, retailers will pass that on to us. So for a $7 figure, that's about 35 cents.

forget it. i dont buy shit at 8 bucks from target so if anything goes above the 7 bucks mark(which is already outrageous) at any other retailers im done. This gouging is ridiculous, uncalled for and flat out extortion by these retailers and companies. I hope hasbro sees this. (moons hasbro)

Maybe if they produced more items like Ironman and Mighty Muggs which are GROSSLY underproduced and made LESS IJ peg-warmers, they wouldn't have to raise their f**king prices...Makes me mad. For this, they better produce a FLAGG or send me a Gold PDD or Piper. Who am I kidding, I'd settle for a Buzzer, lol.

Thanks for the heads up Gaelinic...and for the coupons and discounts through out this year! Hasbro single card cost to retailers is just under $4, so the 5% increase should be less than $0.20. G.I.Joe single card prices could rise $0.50 to $1.00? All bets are off on the vehicles!
