Well, they do have added articulation and accessories, so I guess the reasoning is there. Still, ugh.

Even so. It's too much for me. I'm hoping it gets a release at Target; If it does, I'll buy it there.

Yeah, I hear you there.
Target's NECA prices aren't bad at all.

Did they change the price in general or is that just for ultimate fugitive?

I don't know yet. I've read conflicting things. I hope it's only for the fugitive, but I suspect it might be the new norm.
