Naturally. All those that blindly threw money at HasLab opened the floodgates to everyone getting involved.

"Overpriced" is relative though. If it's the only place you can buy the specific thing and people are still buying it that that given price, then it's the "right price". Even if it's a paper plane with a smiley face sold for a million dollar.
IE Don't buy the old one just because it is ridiculously cheaperit’s 4 times the size of the original LGN 80’s Thundertank toys with much better quality and design.

Also, a corporation is there to MAKE MONEY. That is all.

You should know by now that "size" is not the only factor that determine the price of a toy. Especially as a Transformers fan.
