When your pulling a heist, you don’t want to give your
victims to much time to think about what’s happening.

But small?
Not everyone can fit 1/3 scale Prime 1 sized pieces in our homes. I personally would not want a 1/4 scale 9.5feet Juggernaut.


Is it really going to take up that much space?

Imo once you’re going for a piece of that size (even at 1/5), increasing his size a bit isn’t really going to make much difference to his display footprint. I would just put him on top of one of my Besta cabinets as there was no way even at 1/5 would he fit inside one with the glass doors.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

No one complained when Thanos turned out to be essentially a 1/3 scale statue. I doubt anyone would complain if Juggernaut was a true 1/4 piece. Especially when Juggy comes with a $1400 price tag. Bottom line...there's absolutely no way sideshow can justify a $1400 price tag and give its customers a 1/5 scale Juggernaut. If there are collectors that want to pay the freight on this undersized Juggy, that's fine, it's their money. However, there's no justification in my mind for charging $1400 for what is essentially a comiquette.

What is a premium character....
You mean companies should charge extra for every B-List character they decide to make?

And if you already think about his value in the long run, you might not want the statue, you just think about selling it at double the price later on?

Furthermore it all comes down to edition size and preorders, which I guess won't be very high at this price point for this "scale".

next year will be the 1550.00-1650.00 maquette so we should all just be happy this year. We are very lucky now, could be worse.
