    I don't understand why the prices of figurines are becoming astronomical it's ridiculous. These companies are really just gouging us collectors now, it's becoming harder and harder to be a collector. Great pick ups

      I never really understood why people collect in the first place. You can't take it with you when you die, so that means you don't really own any of it. What happens to all that stuff when people die. It's just a waste of resources, money and time.

    We don’t even have Toys “R” Us in the US anymore, well actually kind of, but they’re located inside Macy’s and none of the toys have a price tag on them and when you go scan them they still are super high!
    anyway I know these are Canadian dollars so they’re not as high as US, but still!!!Wow!
    I remember taking my daughter to Toys “R” Us when she was a little kid and I loved that store, but there’s no way I would go into one right now with any thoughts on serious collecting I would rather go to a mom and pop shop and pay scalper prices!!

They (Hasbro) have to see we don't put up with this anymore!! They have a job because collectors buy this but these prices is laughing at us collectors buying it AND putting up the middle finger to us! We should NOT support them anymore! Good luck finding new jobs at Hasbro but for me I do NOT buy anymore! The last announced Boba Fett Tax TVC figure cost here €27 euro! For a repaint whahaha(I should cry about this)! This is the price of a Black Series figure...WHAT??!! CRAZY so NO MORE!

    Prices are the same in Europe, Neca figures are sold 45 to 50 €. Marvel legend, Gi joes are now at 32€.
    It's too much escpecially for Neca figures, when I started collecting Neca, figures were at 35 to 39€ max and 2 packs 59€ (80€ now).
    I'm really more selective at buying them. I don't take all jasons/predators... and repaint anymore.
    For this price, I prefer buying great articulated figures like figuarts,Mafex,Figma...

Usually since big companies like those are from your parts the prices are much cheaper,but as i can see here 40+ for a small retro style figure of bobba fett is pretty high for your list as well folks! Why is this happening so hard even for the toy market? Nowadays if i buy something like the aforementioned figure above from your region guys with this & that will be for 100+ and i cannot buy like i used to from usa! But having those also go so high on your region my friends is pretty weird!

    Judging we're in the midst of a complete Economic Collapse, and the great depression is gonna happen again, I think that explains the prices.
