Not really. The issue is that, assuming the same basic part count between a 4 and 6" figure, aren't that much difference in cost to produce, yet, they can get away with a higher pricepoint with larger figures.

For example, if it a 4" figure wholesales for $10 or so, the store is only making $3 per sale at a $12.99 pricepoint. A 6" might wholesale for $13 per figure, yet can retail for $19.99 (thus make $7 per sale). So selling ONE 6" figure, theoretically, generates as much as TWO 4" figures.

I fully expect these 12" figures to have VERY significant margins.

About $50, IIRC. Literally, double the price for double the size.


Probably wholesales for $30 or something.
