cylonchaney Posted January 22, 2023 Posted January 22, 2023 Looks like you have a Cobra Kai license. Any chance of CK minimates? Quote

DSTZach Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 I won't have mine for a week or so, nor will most of my press people, so Luke customers may get them first! Let's get some reviews and pics out there! Quote
NerdyTrev Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 I'm really impressed with how much I dig Kid Loki, given that I know nothing about the character. Can we expect that Hulkling's wings will be detachable? Quote

buttheadsmate Posted March 9, 2023 Posted March 9, 2023 (edited) Another beautifully produced set which I look forward to seeing . I'm still concerned about how much they cost ...wave 81 was/is available for $21 whilst wave 83 is nearly $48 ! I know we have debated this but... ? Edited March 9, 2023 by buttheadsmate Quote

That's a bargain! I think the MSRP on 81 was still $10 per two-pack, and costs have gone up, so that if we offered them, they would be $12-15 per pack (I believe the upcoming AEW 2-pack is $12). That means six figures would be $36-45. Similarly, four-packs have traditionally been $30 (I think even that is going up), so by that math a six-pack should be $45. Plus, we try to include a micro-Mate with every set (HERBIE, Lucky). So while cost increases in China (and everywhere) are real, we were really trying to manage pricing while increasing retailer (and casual customer) appeal. THAT SAID, we know $50 is a lot to dish out, so we are looking at reducing prices in the future, even if it means adjusting the number of figures in a set to make it more manageable. I'll keep everyone posted. Thank you everyone who has stuck with us. Quote

buttheadsmate Posted March 11, 2023 Posted March 11, 2023 Thank you Luke. Forgive me for not being precise, it was not my intention to mislead & it's important that the facts are straight Wave 81 = $26 , Wave 83 = $48 . My observation however remains much the same . Quote
DSTZach Posted March 12, 2023 Posted March 12, 2023 MSRP was still $10 each. And cost increases are still real. Sorry, guys. Believe it or not, we looked at other ways to bring prices down, and that included removing some paint apps and tampo printing. Not ideal. Quote
