Probably the start in a gradual shift. There may be some more licensing fees involved for the wrestlers along with the cloth goods. But I bet it will eventually apply to all of them. It's just easier for them (harder for us of course--but if they go to $75 I'm very likely either out or looking for sales. Cant/won't do that on a regular basis.

https://www.sideshow.com/brands/gi-j...June23_25_2022 I pre-ordered them already from the bigbadtoystore but now I'm thinking in shifting to this side. I find out about it when I ordered my tickets to watch GI Joe the movie at the movie theater last week...❤️

Ultimate prices are $55 and only more than that bigger figures in some of their lines like Mumm-Ra, Monstar, Gorilla Guerrilla, among the ones I know. All the the standard ultimate figures should stay in the range I mentioned. If you guys one to get 15% off you can preorder them from sideshow...

I honestly wonder if the prices an oil issues are about to cause people to overall just stop toy collecting? Mostly due to prices.
Basically like what happened back with video game consoles before the NES revitalized that industry an made it come back into mainstream again. Hobby's usually get into that same category! If you are really not making any money then you should stop the nonsense for months until you are better monetary speaking...

Just a warning, the $15 off is a one time thing for first orders. Sideshow also charges shipping and tax out the ass. You *can* build rewards points but you have to play Sideshow's "games" and it's usually for like a dollar off. In short, they're kind of a rip. You'll probably do about the same or better with bbts, Super7, or any of their retailers.

I am still fine with that asking price of $59 as thats just $20 above retail. An this is a collector focused line anyway with much smaller production runs so price will be higher anyway.
But I do feel they have odd choices for included parts. Like the WAY WAY too many arrowhead tips for the Lady Jaye figure or odd design choices for molding per figure. #1 we all know at least 1 of those bloody things will jump out of the tray an run down a vent the moment it gets openned never to be seen again, like transformer missles, lol. #2 I feel the Lady Jaye figure that could have adjusted to only include 2 or 3 arrowheads an then the rest of that portion of the tooling/mold could have been better spent giving us a toy accurate head with a cap on. As then I would have doubled down on buying her to display both. Same with the "I will clearly never be displayed on the figure I come with an get to sit on a shelf" lava face Destro. Odd choices affecting value. Its just a situation now were I think we will have to keep an eye on the figures individually an judge if a possible $75 pricepoint is worth it based on what they come with... as now your talking $300 per wave of 4 figures. . . .... I mean I know I will buy it anyway even at the $75 pricepoint; because I want it regardless, lol. But its def gonna irritate the "old cheap bastard" in my blood, lol.
