I have no idea where you live, but I'm not seeing these massive and regular price hikes you're speaking of. I mean, prices increase here and there due to inflation, more expensive materials, the fact that we're in a wee little trade war with China, and all of that, but it's nothing out of the ordinary.

Their last Predator series (series 18) could cost you on average $70-$75 when they used to set you back $50-$60.

Uh, when are you talking about? The late 1990's? For a line of three figures to cost $50 after tax, they would have to be like $14.99 each. None of NECA's modern Predator figures have ever been that cheap.

Are you going to start reminiscing about how hot dogs were a nickel when you were a kid as well?

Before the year is over I’d be surprised if the last Ultimate Lost Tribe members will be over $45-$50 a figure.

I highly doubt that. NECA would be kissing their sales goodbye if they increased the cost of their figures nearly 43 percent in under a year.
