What did they expect? Still, a low ES like that is still bound to attract those who buy pieces more for what it says on the bottom of the base.

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

Indeed.

So they showed that damn Swampy video on SS Live today, and my interested is slightly re-sparked. It does look good, and the size is nice, 24” tall and bulky, and yet the diameter is only 12”. So, it has a sizable presence without taking up too much real estate.

Hmmm...

There’s a double-slap back to reality.

Shame on Sideshow. I was going to pick this up. Not anymore. Sideshow needs to step up their game. The time they took to sculpt this piece and bring it to life, only to be butchered in China and made of Hasbro quality plastics. I think Sideshow does nothing but a disservice to their own artists.

Considering that the value of the statues Sideshow produces is a considerable 50% to even 60% drop in price before they mark it up for the MSRP.
