If they price it more than Lego minifigs... they'll only hurt themselves.
Individual ones are US$3 each, the combiner packs are US$11.
Not sure how that compares to Lego minifigures in America, but that will translate here to about AU$5-6 and AU$20 respectively.
So yes, if they price themselves to be more than Lego, it is only because they (Hasbro) think people will pay more for the "conversion" or combiner gimmicks, and for the "brand". When in fact the general consumers who make up the majority of their sales, will see the prices on the shelf and go for the cheaper *blind packets*, and the "brand" of Lego over a franchise brand.
to those who own the first batches, just a query... Are the Kreons faces and chest designs tampoed or stickers you put on the figure?
I want to say they started at $2 and then Lego raised the price to $3. I thiiiink. So yeah, probably 5 bucks here.Quote:

Can't wait to start seeing these things actually show up in stores, if they show up at Aussie retail stores. :cool:Quote:

I can see that 6 are the Preview Wave figures, while 5 are the Kreons in the second series sets.
