    Why are King of the Hill action figures so expensive.

    Didn't even know they made them.

    Was looking for a loose Hank to give to a buddy as a gag gift desk toy and was stunned to find out what these things are going for.

    What gives ?

      Probably because these things didn't have a long selling window and never came again. If you're a fan of the show, it's not like the Simpsons or even Family Guy where there have been 2-3 figure lines, this is it!

        Hmmm, add me to the list of people who didn't even know these existed. At first I was wondering why Dale's right arm had the only jointed elbow in the set, then I realized that he needed a way to smoke...

          I'm a hardcore KOTH fan and I never knew these figures were ever produced. Wow. I love 'em!

              Try getting into the Futurama figures. Same deal there.

                When they hit they hit the first time they were already on mark down. They were marked ($4.99) from $(11.99) at our local Kay-Bee Toys. Some of the back of the cards show the next two waves they were going to make. Khan and others. They just started to climb in $ just over the last few years. There great figures.

                  Well, it's been awhile as well - these came out 13 years ago. I covered both waves in my old reviews:
