as with many Hasbro lines, the Lightning Collection will be undergoing a price increase in 2022. The new pricepoints-
Single Figures: $24.99 Two Packs: $54.99 Deluxe Figures: $33.99 Helmets: $99.99 |

If the price is going up to $25, then I'm gonna start comparing their stuff to NECA or McFarlane in terms of quality.

Yeah, I'm sticking to Reds, Sixths and antagonists from here on.
Lightning Collection already suffers from regular issues Hasbro's other collector lines don't deal with nearly as much. Inaccurate decos, missing paint, missing accessories, inconsistent detailing, etc. I know the increase is an inflation thing, but that's just gonna make these issues even more inexcusable than they already are considering I can get better quality figures at the same price point from a literal sister line like Marvel Legends or G.I. Joe Classified.

QC on Hasbro figures in general is a bit of a coin flip. I've personally been fairly lucky(only like, one bad one out of the handful I've bought), but you can easily find many other horror stories, even from some members of this board.

So I'm weighing up getting MMPR Ninja Black for the Toadally Awesome factor - what are the odds on it getting a slight drop in price from the ?28 asking to something more like a regular LC?

Well it's a Target/Pulse Exclusive, so... not very high, I'm afraid.

Oh well, the gods of buying merch truly are capricious with their distribution channels these days.
