All of that is tooling that cost money. I'm not even trying to say it's fair that we pay as much as we do for these figures but if there was one figure in the line worth paying $40 it would be Finster. That's all I'm trying to say. Especially when compared to those mediocre monster figures and every other Ranger figure that just re-uses the same sculpt over and over again except for the head.

To be fair, with this logic, and given how drastically reused the moulds are for the Ranger figures, Hasbro should be charging far less for figures with reused parts and engineering, and we know that will never happen. I agree that Finster is fantastic, but Hasbro’s pricing policies are well past broken at this point.
