Yep, hasn't stopped me from getting into them. They have made over 6 million units according to the 15th-anniversary video so they must be popular.

I think there are various factors involved in the price increases.

It's been 15 years since they first appeared. So there is inflation.

Production costs have gone up in China, and that includes better quality control than for brands like Hot Wheels or Greenlight. There are probably material cost increases as well.

And the fact that there is a demand for them does probably come into play also.

Yeah true, If you think TLV is expensive in 1:64 you should see their 1:43 scale cars expecially the Ignition ones. One Ignition1:43 costs as much as at least 4 regular TLV 1:64 scale cars.
