Goonsack Steve and I like the stump hand. Not scene-accurate, but it gives the awkward pose a little more purpose.

Stump hand FTW

In all seriousness, I'm thinking of getting a second one purely to put some battle damage paint on it so the amputated hand looks screen accurate.

yeah they're nuts..., I know inflation etc but even considering this I don't see how it's 300usd more expensive than jh, simply because base is not nearly as impressive, pass

Welp, it looks like Prime 1 is cutting us out of the game now with this ridiculous pricetag....(over 5.5k?)

It's basically the same damn statue as the JH as far as their cost to produce, for another couple thousand+? This is just pure price gouging at it's finest example. I'll pass. It will be interesting to see how successful they become in the future, by cutting out their hardcore buyer demographic.

After thinking about about what's going on for a minute.... with their crazy new prices, I think I figured out their new strategy?

They have a lot of old stock statue's, that aren't selling that they're sitting on. I just seen the City Hunter wall art statue just got a price cut on sale, because they couldn't even sell it out in all this time, for a fair price, in this present economy... Most of us bought that one!

By raising the prices to astronomical numbers going forward, might just be mind games to help push out all the old statue's at bargain prices. They think people may buy them up, thinking their getting a real bargain because if these statues released today.... they'd cost double or triple maybe? Lol... Maybe scalpers will take the bait?

It's a desperate strategy imo. Think about it.

Not cheap indeed : 2799$ for the regular, 3499$ for the DXS and 5599$ (!) for the Ultimate.

The Jungle Hunter seems like a bargain now...
