Title: White tigers more expensive than orange tigers
Post by: Timotheos on June 03, 2008, 12:00:30

This is more like olds rather than news, but ever notice that the white tiger add-on pack is more expensive than the orange tiger, even though both sets contain the same figures?

I guess white tigers are just more rare in the wild...

They have to dye the orange plastic white. By hand.

Whoops, I had it backwards:

The US, orange tigers are $9.99
The white ones are $8.99.

I guess that orange magic marker has pretty expensive ink.

That's the additional cost of dying them white and then back to orange.
