we need an open ended letter. Anyone care to write one up and post it? along with corporate email addresses? So we can start pouring these into their inboxes? the internets have power people! Lets use it!
We cant control the price of oil. But we can control what we buy and from who! So lets hasbro know that their target audience is not happy! Spread it to yojoe and all the other joe sites! |

Stopped by the Target closest to me and sure enough....$7.99.
They can kiss my skinny white ass. Only thing I'll buy from them now are the exclusives (as long as those don't go up in price.) I consider myself a completest, but if this keeps up I'm gonna have to buy only the ones I REALLY want and so much for army building. Funny how the price goes up after the Con. |

I also stopped by a couple of Target stores today and saw the $7.99 price tag. Ironically, they didn't have any joes at all.

I'm not buying this "oil" excuse as much as I used to. I think alot of companies saw that it worked and now anytime they want to raise a price they simply pull out their "oil" card to get people to line up behind their b.s. line of logic.
Sideshow did this with their stuff-although their figures are primarily cloth. However I don't know if it is Hasbro who is raising the cost or Target itself. If it is Target then they just suck, if Hasbro is behind it then they are returning to the scum factor that they relished in for the last decade and a half. Everyone has been trying to make as much money with as little time and effort as possible for a looong time. Now there is the excuse of oil and people are salivating over it. It's pathetic. |

Hey have you heard? The reason oil is so expensive is that the Middle East saw that the 25th Joes are flying off the pegs, they created a false shortage of oil and that's how the whole thing started.
