Dude, they sold fairly complex figurines for the original price. The Baby Metroid amiibo was 15 dollars for example (Samus + Metroid = 30 dollars). Dark Samus Smash amiibo is very good quality and it costes 15. Samus + EMMI same as Samus + Metroid: 30 dollars.

The price increase doesn't make sense besides them being greedy.

I have some of the original the quality of them wasn't consistent, Samus and EMMi in UK has always been £35 which is $50 not $30 and came out in 2021 so isn't even close to being one of the original in fact ammibos been around £25 to £35 for a while now.

If you want older quality figures for the original price, take a look at things like Wolf Link amiibo (2016) or Mario's 30th Anniversary amiibo (2015). I think you'll agree that they look pretty good compared to current amiibo.

This is not acceptable. There hasn't been a jump in quality. Only in price. And even if there was a jump in quality, it's still a cheap tiny figurine at the price of almost a full game. It's insane.
