I'm not as up to date on HW prices as many of you are. It just seems to me that everytime something new comes out, whether it's a TH, WL, GL, or something listed as Limited Edition, the sky's the limit, as the first group of people that "gotta have it" go overboard paying for it , and probably won't get their money back. Unless it's an extremely desired casting, prices always seem to level off, or drop considerably.With the quantities of HW's made, I would think it will be hard for something to hold it's price, or even go up, during the course of the year. Just my 2 cents.
