I can't beleive that the Thing bust is worth so much now!! Is it that hard to get or is this a fluke thing?

my LCS still has this in stock (they've actually had this for awhile on display)...i'm wondering if i should run and pick it up for my own collection (since I don't have or use e-bay). i never knew the es was listed for 150...

I would pick it up and flip it or trade it for something you want.

Man, you lucky bastards with good LCS's. Mine has a bunch of crap and when they do have something good they charge like a freakin million dollars. :bawling: Sorry if that came out mean...I'm just jealous. :)

Funny how things are. When this bust was up for pre order, with the LE stills unknown, people MASSACRED this piece here, which resulted in a very low edition number in the end(not too many pre orders). Now everyone wants one and it skyrocket in price! :laugh:

I saw 3 for sale at Universal Studios at the begining of the year selling for retail, should have bought some for a flip. :)

That is one hell of a price Ed. :buttrock:

Honestly, it's usually the items that no one likes originally that soar in value later. I have always loved the look of this bust. All the 1:1 busts that Sideshow produces are really phenomenal looking in person. The Thing bust came out ahead of it's time.

I don't know what's going on with that Thing bust at BBTS. I saw it a few weeks ago, available for pre-order, and then it was sold out. I saw it available again, yesterday, and now it's sold out again.
