A definite upgrade over the first release

[deecee4]

Holy fuck, did they just raise the price of Ultimates to $75?! I guess Brian wasnt kidding when that was mentioned during an interview last year.

[an99]

$75? Lol - no.

[JerpJerp]

They made a wave 2 of the boys! Good for them, I don’t collect but wrestling stuff but I listen to their stuff all the time, they are true toy fans and do a lot for the whole community. Just like Toyark here!
…..75? This is getting seriously scary….

Who needs Jay White when you can have a second Brian Myers?!?

As much as I like the licenses that Super 7 is getting, their figures are too pricey for my tastes now that they've raised the price to $75. I only got the "signature pose" Conan so far and I might be getting that Toxie figure. I think this is the first time Matt got a figure in the Ultimates line.

The $75 price might be isolated to these releases because of the paint apps and accessories, according to Matt Cardona...which I thought was the point of the Ultimates line in the first place but whatever.
Brian Flnn had said in an interview last year that if tooling costs didnt go down Ultimates could be $75 by July if this year. And seeing how its almost July and these preorders are $75....I guess we'll know for sure when those Simpsons preorders drop next week.

Theres an earlier version of Matt as an ultimates, btw. You should still be able to find it at it's original $45 price.

There's zero reason these should be $75 figures. Over a 30% increase in price and there's barely any accessories.

I see, thanks for the clarification. $45 is almost the price of an AEW figure from some local online stores outside the US, I'm lucky if I can get an AEW figure that I want for $36 or less, which is sadly uncommon. NJPW Ultimates are being sold here for $63, I can't even imagine how much would they cost if the prices are raised again.
