Re: Is anyone else just kind of "over" Hot Toys?
Although I'm getting priced out, I'll make an exception for the Iron Monger.

i've found myself growing less and less interested over the past few months too and i suppose that's wholly due to the prices. It's not about whether i can afford the figures or not (which many point to when you say you don't agree with the price), it's rather that i plainly don't think ht figures are worth the prices they're currently asking. These figures are great but i don't think they're $180+ great. When you get to $250 and such they definitely get a lot less appealing to me.
For me there's a price limit with these figures, beyond which i start to feel like i've wasted money or been taken for a sucker. It gets to a point where it's just not an agreeable exchange, where i feel like i'm being gypped.
Not over them yet, but seeing the $265 price tag on the Joker today was my first step in that direction.
Remember paying $80 for my first HT figure, never did I expect to be paying 3x that amount.
Collecting burn out I see..
seriously me and hot toys are done professionally! i think im gonna try and get myself banned from this site so i dont have to see and eventually buy all these new figures.

It's sad because I'd like to buy every Hot Toys release, but now I'm really limited to the brands that I truely love. Figures like sucker punch etc don't stand a chance of being bought by me anymore.
