Re: Beast Wars pricing in the 90's?
Ultras were 40$???
Are you guys sure about that, I mean seriously, my collection includes every Ultra except for the original Optimus Primal and I can't see how I could have afforded them at 40$ a piece if that were the case.
I seem to recall the prices working out like this...
Basic 5$ with taxes rougly close to 6$
Deluxe 10$ with tax around close to 12$
Mega 15$ with tax it would be about 17$
Ultra 20$ with tax closer to 22$
Optimal Optimus would have been either 30 or 35$ I can't be certain.
I mean seriously, I can't see how the Mega figures would be around 20$, especially since I managed to buy most of them myself with my own money. And I wasn't getting that much back then.
Heck I'm amazed I even managed to afford half of what I did if the Ultras were 40$ a piece, I mean seriously, that size class evolved into the Voyager size class of today and they are only 30$ roughly a ten dollar mark up compared to the old BW Ultras. No way they could have been 40$ and then went DOWN, that's not how inflation works.
