Went garage salin' this weekend and finally picked up some of these guys. I love 'em! Especially at 25 cents a pop. They should be fun to hunt for. Seems like this forum's kinda dead for them. Too bad. I thought they were still in stores, too. What do they usually cost for regular ones? 50 cents? $1?

It really depends what series they're from. All the ones in your picture are from series that are probably the most readily available in the US and UK. I sell those for $1 each, or less if they don't have their collector cards with them. However, it would be absolutely normal for desirable figures from other series to go for $10 or more.

Holy crap! I'll stick with the cheap ones. Thanks for the price check! I'm still reading up on them. I remember when they came out in stores but I thought 'I already collect enough stuff'.

Heck no, they're not dead!! Gormiti are my latest thing. Snatch them up at Toys R Us while you can, cause they're all on clearance. 2-packs for 1.98, 4-packs for 3.98. I've heard others on here say that if you have a Marshall's or TJ Maxx, they may also have them on clearance for even cheaper!!!

They were originally $3.50 each in stores in the United States.
Unlike in other countries they were not sold in blind packs.
Only in 2 & 4 packs.
I believe the high prices and Beasts in plain sight ruining some collect ability
Contributed to lack of sales and cancellation.

Right now a two pack is $1.99 at Toys R Us with a 4pack for $3.98. So $1 for a figure with card. They were originally $5.99 for a twopack and $9.99 for a fourpack.
