And although there are some like 20 - 25 pound figures of like super articulated marvel heroes you can find them for like a fiver on eBay. They are the some of the few things on eBay that get marked down rather than ridiculously marked up.

Er no.
A figuart RRPs for £20-25, whether it be a web exclusive or otherwise.

Any other cost comes from middleman fees, a mark up from stores simply because they're old or an "exclusive" or simply because sellers on ebay think they cost more because they're Japanese.

If you pay "three times the price of an average action figure" that's because you CHOSE to pay that much. It isn't what these things retail for.
