First wave of Sackboy figures priced and pictured

The set, listed as "Wave 1" (as in "more on the way!"), is slightly different from what Sony first gave us a glimpse of in February. The figures are still 4" tall with various accessories (each comes standard with a Pop-it Lasso) but the roaster has changed. It now includes plain ol' Sackboy, the pigtailed Sackgirl, "Sky," and the afro-sporting "Marvin." (Sky's spot was taken by a Chinese New Year Dragon Sackboy in the original lineup.)
It looks as if the release of the line has been pushed back as well. Sony originally indicated a spring arrival, while Entertainment Earth -- which is usually reliable regarding ship dates -- lists them for September. We'll be happy just to get them at all. We'd be happier yet if they were somehow made from recycled plastic ... sacks.

"Turns out it's $34.99 for three doses of the cute stuff."
Is this a typo, or are they high?

Figures?
...Figures?
Why in the world would you make sackboy merchandise that wasn't, you know, SACKS?
Stuffed animals are not hard to make, people. Hell, I've made a few myself!

Plastic crap is plastic crap.
They're not called plastic-crapboys, and plastic-crapgirls, are they??
