Since the price recently climbed to $7.99 at Target for G.I. Joe figures and since their profit is now higher I wouldn't rule out any more future price increases. Stop buying now so Hasbro gets the message! I mean all the Target shoppers! Buy single card figures somewhere else!

I don't buy much of anything from stores unless its discounted(like the star wars stuff is) or its loose and i trade for it. These companies can kiss my the fattest part of my ass.

do you think the profit increase is due to the 65% price increase they have dropped on us in the past year? I figure if they sell the same amount of product with a 65% price increase that would about cover it. from $4.84 to $7.99 i think that might have something to do with it

Hasbro is making their profits just like the oil companies: by driving that price up... :(

I agree. You should all just stop buying Joe figures, boycott Target and Wal-mart! At least until I get all the ones I want, and then it doesn't matter.
