Anyone remember the opriginal MSRP on Countdown?

I don't remember that costing $70. (If it were, my parents wouldn't have bought me it!). For some reason, I remember it as $20.
On a side note, this got me thinking about GI Joe's Defiant playset. I'd kill to own that thing. But I don't have the space for it.
