>>11614214>more making shit upYou want to pretend you're so knowledgeable, yet you haven't provided a single ounce of proof. You refer to old Hasbro Q&As, but can you even post them?
Whereas I've posted photographic proof that the main 1:18 lines were still under $10 up til 2013.
Nevermind it's insane for you to pretend that the toys really went up nearly SEVEN DOLLARS in price in only 2 years.
The fact that you think a price can increase that crazily pre-COVID means you're a generation Alpha child who doesn't understand what the past was like, or you're from a third world country so you don't know how much SEVEN American dollars is actually worth.... especially in the mid-2010s.
pic is a TRU exclusive 3 pack that cost $20 in 2014. Less than $7 each. Here's a link to a page from the year it came out.

Which means each figure cost about $8 each. There was no rapid inflation or price guaging back then in the 2010s, because the economy had stabilized by then and companies were still trying to keep their customers by adding value.
can YOU offer ANY proof or are you going type out more bullshit text where you pretend to live in America?
