    Supply and Demand

    I think supply has caught up with demand. For the first time in Wichita Ks there are a number of figures on the pegs. I saw a couple of Supermans , 3 Lex, and 3 Sinestros, but no Green Lantern. I was tempted to buy a Lex because it is stitched, the one I have is unstitched. Maybe I will go back and pick him up. I would like to know when I can pick up Wave 2. Is it the end of June or will it be in July?

            Sure, and if they were $1.25, you would never see them ever!!

            Considering the Hasbro silver age figures and the Toy Biz Famous Covers were about $15.00 retail 10+ years ago, I don't know how you could expect them to be $12.00.

              when wave 2 hits, more collectors will more than likely want a set too, think about how many people passed on collecting these because there was no Batman....

                  I think you are failing to take into consideration the ever rising price of oil and how that effects the price of plastic. I've also heard that the price for labor overseas has gone up while the value of our dollar has gone down. I'm actually amazed they ONLY cost $20.00.

                    That's a fair number, then maybe my son could actually play with some. For now he'll have to be happy with his CTVT guys.
