You think that people would still want blasters like the Recon and Alpha Trooper, especially at that price, considering you can get an OMW kit and replace the internals for a blaster that competes with their N-Strike Elite counterparts.

A rise in price would probably only happen ten years or so from now, when N-Strike is considered vintage... though I can see air-powered blasters from the series rising in price due to the fact that I don't think we'll ever see an air-powered blaster from here on out.
