New july k&C releases prices rise (2 Viewers)

I envy you guys who are disciplined enough to collect one line or era.:({sm2}

Thank you for the admiration, but if the truth be known (in my case), the Discipline comes in the form of Oil bills in New England winters, Taxes, Car Payments, Home Repairs and ............

The Toy Soldier Envelope gets filled ":(:(LAST. But some months, just enough trickles down and then the hard parts begins .... What figure(s) next??
 
I'm glad I have a few K&C vehicles that gave me lots of bang for the buck over the last few years. The The M4 Sherman 105mm howitzer with 3 figures $89.00 The Stuart with 3 figures $89.00. The Normandy Panther with 4 figures $109, and the M10 winter tank destroyer with 4 figures $115.00. Finally, the M12 Howitzer with 5 figures $165.00, and the general Inspection Sherman with a whopping 7 figures $199.00. I always drew the line at $199.00, so the new priest with 1 figure, which i think is fantastic, but will cost upwards of $300.00, because you really need the 3 extra shell loaders to make it complete is a tall order. Being very selective is now the order of the day, and one tank purchase per year is now what i do. As far as $42.00 per figure, I will pass for the most part, unless It is is absolutely essential to complete a scene. The pricing is going to make it very difficult for lots of collectors in this hobby, when you think that I just replaced my over the range microwave for $350.00, and the Priest model with all figures, costs almost as much? Next up, college tuition for the kids! Happy collecting everyone.
 
I have been selling and swaping alot of my older K+C peices to afford newer sets :( and have the normandy fuel bowser on order but i think this is my last set i cant afford to buy anymore
