(...) KB in general confuses me. I just don't quite get their pricing strategy. LEGO sets an MSRP and most retailers hew to it, or go a few cents below (like Walmart) KB on the other hand is typically 10-20% above MSRP. I don't know other toy lines (...)

Never tried them, but at least in this case there are only 2 tubs per case, so you don't have to order a ton. $15 for that tub isn't bad, I've never even found it in a store, I've only gotten my copies from KB Toys in the past.
