>>8978092There would always be a jump in price between Shizue and when they started doing hentai characters. They probably have to pay some form of licence fee.
While Taimanin isn't exactly a big IP or anything it is pretty well known so I imagine the licence for it is somewhat considerable compared to other hentais they could've gone with.
I just hope Lilith isn't screwing with Second Axe in trying to get them to pay more each time they make a character, especially after seeing how well Asagi did.
I also guess they were always going to increase the prices just to see how much people will take. Since its made to order if sales go down they can easily shift prices to be lower on the next figure.
it just sucks that its so soon and they increased shipping too.
