Same here. The Canadian dollar is a deal breaker for me. I've had to cancel 3 previous orders as a result of the diving dollar. A $500 piece quickly becomes a $950 piece with the exchange, shipping and Customs charges. It's too bad because there are some pieces I really liked but had to pass.

Wow..... I don't blame you because I would not collect for almost double for a new retail item.

Over $500 for a character I grew up loving is a lot to ask out of me right now.

So easy pass for me.

she looks awesome but not for the price and Es. Will buy later if I need this for less.

Has the price been confirmed, or are we all circle jerking over nothing?

Why the hell did this go up before Cleopsis. We've been waiting for Cleopsis to go up for PO for a year already.

It's most likely a case of licensed projects getting priority. But still....

Not to be rude, but this makes no sense. All of the COTD pieces are unlicensed. Cleopsis was shown as a completed prototype over a year ago (maybe even a year and a half ago) and Shard was just shown last summer, yet she's up for PO now and no Cleopsis in sight.

EDIT: She was first shown at SDCC in 2014, so we're going on two years.

Ah, to be enslaved by the whims of a collectibles company is to know the very essence of hell itself!

Free thy self, take up stamp collecting......
