Dead End and Yet Another Bumblebee aren't bad repaints; but they're not especially compelling, either.
Target's joined TRU in gouging on these figures. New price for Deluxes is $14.99; $24.99 for Voyagers. Ouch. If Airachnid weren't just one per case, I'd have waited to find her at Walmart.
(At this rate, Walmart's prices may be going up, too.)
I was also at Target a few days ago. While I didn't notice the price change to TFs, I did notice that the G.I. Joes and Marvel Universe figures were now $9.99. Which seems ridiculous, because at least the MU figures were sitting there for awhile at $7.99 - 8.49ea, increasing the price is going to get them to move faster?
Anyways, not sure if this will be indicative of the price points for the foreseeable future, but worth noting that it's not just TFs.
