Word at the con was $25 per figure plus shipping, and since the club gouges on shipping I'd assume at least $7 per shipment of 2 figures, so basically on the low end expect the whole thing to cost $342.

didn't they say that the expected price of no more than $25 that they reported all along before the con was more likely to be going up now since all other figures went up? I seem to recall them saying that at the club roundtable.

I'm sorry, as much as I like the club. This year has been about nothing but a cash grab for them. The almost 15% jump in the con set, the $100 for the Indy truck, $75 for the dragonhawk, thirty for the parachute fig, the extra 25 GTs at an extra $100 a ticket. They are getting greedy. I hope the low resale cost of the con vehicles cuts into speculators and reduces sell thru next year to help reign in the club's price gouging.

Then later that day, I had a discussion with one of the club employees who told me that right now they were thinking it was leaning toward being closer to the $25 mark now. Ultimately though, I think this is just gonna come down to what they feel comfortable with as a profit margin. Because, even if they only did a manufacturing run of say 500 of each figure there is no way in hell it costs them anywhere near $25 a figure to get them manufactured. I hope they are intelligent about this though, because if they out price themselves they are just putting themselves up to more scrutiny and having the FSS be a massive failure financially could be really detrimental to the future of their business.

Probably a can of worms I don't wanna open, but what happened with MOTUC? I've heard that Matty collector sucks, but that's all I've heard.
