So, I like the piece, but I'm not all that sold on it. The original fireball with the Whitebeard logo seemed more interesting to be honest.

I've had my PO in from December, but I'm really not sure now.

It's a good 200 - 300 Euro over the cost of almost all their other pieces too. What gives?

Price is probably down to the complexity of the piece, the clear resin and the light up feature. Add to that the fact that all prices are going up across the board....saying that though at 4000 ES i think the price is kinda insane lol.

It'll sell well and i'm sure it will be stunning in hand....i think at 4000 ES though flippers might have a surprise.

I'm sure a year or so after release though it'll fly up in price....but then you have the risk of a very delicate piece with a light up feature which may fail.

so i'd imagine next we'll see another Strawhat, think they'll finally do Luffy to hang with his brother? and of course Buggy will be after that.

I'm still not buying that it's that much more "complex" than some of their other pieces. Seems like a load of something.
I do think it will look cool, but I'm still questioning if it's money that could be spent on a different piece.
I already have I think 4 Tsume pieces on PO, LOL.

I'd be quite happy with Luffy next.

They sold 3,500 of it while they had not shown it yet and I don't know if there is much left at the moment, so don't worry for them.

Edit : sold-out.

I never had any doubt it would sell out, it's an impressive piece and Tsume go all out when they approach pieces and lets face it they are riding the hype train to the max at the moment!

Also as said above 3500 sold before the real reveal so people were all in before even seeing the finished piece.

I just hope people don't start to panic and start paying stupid prices because this is a piece that will be 18 months before release and i honestly think it will be around retail for a long time.
