The Mouse is probably demanding shit tons of money from Hasbro to maintain the global toy license. It's the only reason I can think of why the Black Series has become such a cut throat line to collect that's full of exclusives and re-use that's not even worth the money compared to their other lines.

1. Last Hawk. No sign of Echo. Literal shit tons of Anakin and obi wan. How do they miss the mark on case ratios this badly?
2. $39.99 They've now doubled in price since the first wave.

In my experience at my local TRU they had a crap ton of Hawks and only a couple of Obi and Ani's. Not a single Echo in sight though.

Now that you mention it I noticed this the other day at my TRU except for the Comic Legends figures. Maul, Kir Kanos and the Rabbit were all $39.99 instead of $37.99.
