Ok this is REALLY expensive!!!There are two kits, one being 70 dollars and the other being 80!!!And all seems to suggest there will be more kits comming!(in another words, an extra 70 dollars)
I mean, this is a cool looking idea, but the price...

Remember, Skylanders was a big success. Its starter packs costed as much or more as regular games and then there were the added costs for additional figurines and other plastic items.

Each Labo kit includes a game, so I don't see a problem price-wise.

Well, maybe, who knows?

As for the price, Nintendo could have made them cheaper because lets face it, the cost of those cardboxes and strings probably dosent pass the 10 dollars mark, and Nintendo could have sold the software itself for 40 dollars.Assuming there is only one software for the both kits, Nintendo could charge far less for the other kit, like 20 dollars.Plus they would still be making money of the stamps, which are 10 dollars each.

In another words, charge about 50 for the first kit, then 20 for the other kits, and make the most money off the people that buy several kits, or the "extras".I tjink that would have been a more reasonable price.

But there are the skylanders example, so who knows.At least the idea is neat.
