Does anyone else think action figures these days are too overpriced? I went to a store tonight and most of them were $8 to $10!!! (Star Wars being $10!!)
I know with the copyrights these days they it makes them more expensive, but does it need to be that much? And no ever hardly puts them on sale! What are your thoughts on this?abortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion

Yeah, never thought of it like that. That's why I always wait for a sale or clearance.
Also I think their quality has gone down, in both paint and durability. Kmart had a sale on Captain America figures (yea, I like more than just Tron!) and one of the 2 I got (it was a BOGO 50% sale, now do you know what that means since I didn't!) must of had a weak arm (no exercise?) since it snapped off from just lightly bending it. I just hope the manufacturer sends me a new one (they always do!) abortion pills online http://www.kvicksundscupen.se/template/default.aspx?abortion-questions cytotec abortion

I'd say yes and no because I look at this from two different viewpoints.

From a strict monetary standpoint, yes. I still remember the days when Star Wars figures were $2.

From an advancement standpoint, no. The figures that are available today look leaps and bounds better and some have a lot more functionality than what was available 30+ years ago.

As an example, look at the differences between the original Tron figures from 1982 and the more recent Spin Master T:L figures. For that matter, look at some of the Marvel Universe figures or its sub-lines like Thor or Captain America.

Sure, I'd like to be able to buy new figures for $2 again. But I also understand better technology leads to higher production costs that get passed on to the consumer.abortion pills online http://www.kvicksundscupen.se/template/default.aspx?abortion-questions cytotec abortion

I wouldn't know anything about that because 2-3 years ago I wasn't collecting. Before I started getting back into collecting again last year with T:L and this year with the Captain America line I did get a few pieces from the Star Wars figures that came out in the mid-90's for, if memory serves, $4.99 a piece.

And here again, this is what I'm talking about with advancements. Those Star Wars figures back then were, shall we say, a bit on the muscular side. Luke Skywalker looked like he had ruined his back with that expression he had on his face. Now, the newer Star Wars figures that I've passed by in stores look much better now than I ever remember seeing them.
