>>8381335>That has nothing to do with how much it actually costs to produce.Are you dumb?
Everyone knows the cost of production is pennies per every dollar they charge.
No one is going to argue differently.
Point is though, Hasbro isn't overcharging more than any other company does. As said in the other thread, Hasbro is one of the very few companies that actually gives you more value for your buck.
They're one of the cheapest toy companies in the world that aren't bootleggers.
>>8381402There's a HUUGE difference between something that's sold in mass market stores and one that's sold only to just thousands of people.
Walmarts and Targets order at LEAST one case per store, and they have thousands of stores in America. That brings down the cost of the toy by multiples.
If you were to compare it to like that guy from earlier, like the NECA Deadpool, it's way cheaper. NECA sells maybe tens of thousands of their figures, because they don't sell mass market toys. These are the numbers that Hasbro is selling with the Sentinel.
Another example is this $160 12" figure from Bandai. Again, not a mass market toy and that's why it costs so much (plus the Japanese mafia tax, which is why everything is so overpriced in Japan)
Again, stop being such a poorfag and thinking you should be only paying 2008 prices or wholesale prices.
