umm..what's up with the figs going up in price by 50% within one year?

If it means that they're going to start using the regular LEGO plastic to make
the MF's, then I'm fine with it.  If not, then it looks like they just got a
case of The Greedies.

My local Meijer store had Series 3 for $1.99, so the MSRP didn't go up.  I
wonder if TLC had been taking marketing advice from Toys R Us?

(...) While the plastic on the series 3 looks the same as S1 and S2, I can say that so far, S3 clutch power of feet to baseplate is much better than S1 and S2. Just my observation. Chris (14 years ago, 23-Dec-10, to lugnet.general, lugnet.market.shopping)
