I liked your idea about case packing and wish they would just do that and make the line viable instead of seemingly forcing the sub so that we can get the characters we want like that Wally West

The 2012 subscription-only figure (Mallah & Brain) is the only oversized (CnC) figure for 2013. Using 2012 as an example (Rocket Red, Elasti-Girl, Lead), these are typically priced at $30 each, plus taxes & shipping (approx. $40 total). Regular figures are $18 plus taxes & shipping (approx. $26 total).

They are more expensive for cherry-pickers on day-of sale.

So with that rationale, the cost of the subscription can be considered a subscription fee with a free figure OR a $30 figure with a free contract binding you to participate in the subscription. Either way, that portion is $30 plus tax.
