While checking out the clearance endcaps at a local Target I found a Skystriker(just one) with a clearance sticker for $12! I checked out another local one though and they had like 5 but they were regular price.

LOL! Time to buy those 5 and return them to the Target that is clearing them. Then you can get a fleet at $12 a pop!

I'd love to get two for that price!

Dang, I'd grab a few more...

I'm definitely looking for one more to customize, but am going to wait till my Target Clearances them out.

Regular price for the Skystrikers and the figures are now $10.99!

Yeah, I saw that tonight, good luck moving Arctic Destro and Renegades Cobra Commander at that price!

If anyone can find me one for that price, I have new stuff posted for trade!

Got to check one Target today... they had 2 Skystrikers and at full price. Figures have been bumped up to $10.99 too which sucks. They're actually cheaper at Toys R Us now with their $9.99. Actually all figures have gone up by about $1 or more. I saw the new Harley Quinn that I wanted and almost passed with the $15.99 price. I ended up getting it, but I'll be more and more limiting what I buy. Toys are about to be priced out of the "hobby" idea and heading towards Swartzky Crystal collecting prices.

Along with the $10.99 price hike on figures that others have seen, I went to my local Target and they actually RAISED the price of their Skystrikers to $36.79! :rant:

And don't get me started on the CVS in my town that raised the price of Joes to $17.79!! :verymad:

Oh yeah... I forgot to mention that too on the Skystriker. Although it was $36.99 here.

Don't worry, they'll just blame us when these figures don't sell at the new high prices.

If I saw a Skystriker for $12 on sale, I'd buy it no question. However, unless I have some reason otherwise to go into the city I probably won't be getting one.

Went to one yesterday, and the jets were still 34.99. The worst part was they actually had a nice selection of Joes...at 10.99 a pop!?

...I'm glad that reducing the articulation is keeping the prices down!

I wondering if it would help if we were to write into the stores and state that due to the raising of the figure prices, we will no longer be shopping at the stores?

Nice polite letters.

Not sure if it would do anything, but at least they'd know our displeasure and potential for lack of sales.
