Another one of my very first Battle Beasts was Hare Razing Rabbit,
a simple figure with two arm joints, a spear, and a second figure in
every pack. For about four bucks you could get two cheap (but fun)
figures in the 1980s. Heck, for $1 you could get a pack of four random M.U.S.C.L.E. guys. Today, astonishingly, you can still get a Hot Wheels
car for a dollar but not a heck of a lot else. The reasons for this
are many: increasing labor costs, higher materials prices, and a
constant ascent in fan demands for figures that have more parts and more
deco. I was pretty amazed that Diamond got its new Minimates Battle Beasts to Toys R Us for $7.49 per pair in early 2013.[ READ THE FULL REVIEW ]
