To the best of my knowledge, their prices haven't changed.  However,
the entire batch is fairly low-volume (if you've got one, i think it's
safe to claim that there are at most 150 another of these animals
around on the world), so shipping times are often fairly long.  Ingo
Liebscher cannot order them in batches of less than 50 at the
manufacturer, so he must accumulate orders.

(Disclaimer: i'm unrelated to Liebscher&Co, other than that i've
initiated the daemon toy story there.)
