Actually, it was even more than that ($999)

If I remember correctly, we did some investigating and it looked like the seller's friend bought it at that price.

I still believe the whole Clone Wars secondary market pricing is complete bull****. These statues were going for less than MSRP during the first quarter of this year... then BAM! The Padme jumps about 250% and rest are roughly 50% higher within a couple of months.

Can't get it either. I wouldn't pay $50 on this thing, much less $900.

Much less from the movie! :laugh:
The only way I would pay $900 for anything Padme, is if Natalie herself came to my home to give me some special services :eplus2:

Made a offer but the seller never looked at it so I guess this will sit for awhile.

I'm with you. I bet half the people who own this thing don't even like it, but they hunted one down due to the "rarity" factor.

I would still take it though to complete my set but not for $900.

Well, I own this piece and would definitely disagree. Sure she is the rarest of the maquettes but IMO she is also the nicest and Padme is far from being my favorite character from the cartoon series. The way the fur on her coat is incoporated into the sculpt really sets this one apart from the rest. Maybe I'm in the minority but I never factor in secondary market value and low production #'s into how I evaluate a piece's quality.

SW expanded universe items come out in such small quantities because they don't believe that there is a market for them(like the EU Hasbro figures that came out a few years ago). As more people find out about them the more they jump in value.
I still don't know why this piece goes for so much money, when it came out I had no problem ordering it off SWshop.
