It’s not a mistake. Blizzard set the price so no one would be tempted to buy it. They are selling the statue at conventions and need the statue online for purchasing. They give a code to a buyer at the convention to reveal the $150 price when they type the code online.

So I'm guessing that's how you purchased yours?
Especially since you recently received yours ...as you stated a few posts back.

Actually, now that I look more closely, even the page says it in RED fonts. It says "For events ship to home code card purchases only."
Nifty way of doing it ...

I purchased mine online as soon as someone in this thread mentioned she was up for sale again. Apparently she was sold out within a few hours.
I have a suspicion that she was not meant for online sale, because you can't search for Tracer on the gear store and find this statue, at least I couldn't. They probably put her up thinking only people at the conventions would be giving the link. Once they found out people were buying the statue online they quickly jacked the price and made that statement in red. Only the link in this thread would get me there. But who knows, I could be wrong haha.

I think you're right. That's what must have happened. I saw the page too when the link was posted ...then the revised page after that.
Good thinking on your part when she became available. You "quick grab" yourself one. Nice!

I got tracer on Wave 3 in the end of April re-stock. I was checking like 5 times a day for over 2 months. Was very lucky and happy to get it.
Wonder why it keeps selling out but all the other statues remain in stock? I get she is the poster character of Overwatch and all, but yeah. She is a cool statue though with great detail and pose

Congrats, man!
She must be more popular than expected because not only is she the one selling out, but she is the only one used for convention sales too.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

They sell all of them at conventions. I preordered the D.VA at comic con and they had Windowmaker, Tracer, and Reaper for sell. They give you a themed card with a scratch back number so that you can enter it in online as payment for the statue.

Hmmm ...I wasn't clear enough.
Meant to say ..."she is the only one used for convention only sales". The others you can still buy them on their website without the codes.
