Altimites DX Transformable SD Lion Force Voltron

So I love this whole concept a fully transformable SD Voltron everything about it is super adorable. Well everything but the price point is adorable. I'm passing on this because I can't see charging $125 for a 8 inch build a figure like this. If it was diecast I might of said maybe to it, but everything I've learned is this is completely plastic. This has me very nervous that Ultimate Voltron EX set will be 200 plus

Yeah. That's the one I'm waiting for. I'm expecting it to be around $250. Anything lower and I'll be thrilled.

Don't get me wrong the one I want most is the Ultimate Voltron EX but if it has a price point of $250 I won't buy it. I passed on the both the masterpiece and the anniversary sets because of that. I bought the Mattel Classic line but that was per piece not give us 300 dollars up front. I'm beginning to wonder If WEP is charging too much for the license to Voltron. Mostly because I keep thinking of both Bandai and Hasbro and there big collector lines. Bandai with Power Rangers Legacy stuff which if was 100% plastic would overpriced (not including Titanus) and Hasbro's Transformers Generations Line's new Devastator which is roughly same size as the EX is supposed to be and I think a fair price at $140. Right now I look at voltron and I see hope that more will come but right now it is on life support again. It had an awesome relaunch with the Force Cartoon that even was nicktoons top rated show at the time but never got renewed for a 2nd season, A movie that is in production hell and a comic book that well was just bad.

Sorry if I ranted I just love the franchise and Toynami is an awesome company I love there Futurama and Robotech toys and those are fairly priced why is it Voltron Fans have to pay.
