DISCUSSION TOPIC.
The Stinger will most certainly have to be more expensive than the VAMP. But by how much? I'm bracing for $150+. Do you agree that the Stinger will have to be more expensive, or can it be done for the same price? |

I think it can be done for the same price. Slightly less accessories with the driver and it should work

The extra $50 better buy us an A.S.P. for it to tow.

I'm thinking the same price. The majority of the tooling is done, they just need the missile pod and rear standing platform. They can recolor the Cobra Officer in gray to make the Stinger Driver.

The roof and doors should be a minor cost as well.

Yes. I see the Stinger coming with something as a two-pack. A.S.P. is the ideal choice. I think it could come in at $135 though.
Edit - $150 if it comes with the Stinger, Driver, ASP and Gunner. That's a great package. |

$10 more for $0.37 worth of plastic in the form of Deluxe figures is bad enough.
Hasbro can't be so daft as to boost the cost of a product 50% (fifty percent!) for $0.78 worth of plastic.

I can see the stinger going to $125 or $130 but not $150, that would be huge. I do think that there will be a price increase and the reasoning will be for rising costs.

Packing it with the ASP and a gunner might not be the wisest choice (which looking at the SMS would likely put the package closer to $200). If the VAMP's anything to go by, it'll come alongside another dump of products, causing customers to cancel other purchases to pick it up, or worse, cancel it to keep other product since it'd be the bigger purchase.

How did you calculate the $0.78 of extra plastic? Because if you're calculation that $0.37 worht of plastic = $10 then we are talking at least $120. |
