One chief reason is that tin, the primary ingredient in pewter is at double the price it was 2-3 years ago.katadder said:Chernobyl said:did you look at the prices? $9.95 for two starfury flights? $9.95 for a single Nial Flight? $10.95 for two thunderbolt flights? Does the Poseidon at $39.95 have any fighters?
ouch, nothing like hiking prices up. after the deals we all got from mongoose guess people wont be interested in things that high and would guess that posiedon doesnt come with fighters.

True. Perhaps it is the result of a different analysis of COGS by IWM vs. MP to actually make the line profitable/viable.Kickaha said:Paladin wrote

There is something more than price of tin at work here. Pre Mongoose sale prices for fighters was £6 for 24. we are now almost at £5 for 12 for the cheapest EA & much Worse for Narn & Minbari at almost £4.50 for 6
That price hike is not reflected in the ships other than the fighters, at least at no so high a percenatge increase. They also use more tin (not counting a metal flying base, (I hope this is not included))
I could guess at other answers. like some of the cavities have expired in the fighter moulds multiplying the labour factor or is the result of a simple mistake, however we have to wait to see what Iron Wind have to say.
