The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I really want this piece, but its so damn pricey. I really wish we could jump back to the $400 base PF price point.

I was just thinking the same earlier today. Back in those days I wanted so may characters. If they made Kl'rt the Super Skull I would've bought him lol. Now, most of these aren't worth it.

In hindsight if these were still $400 I'd likely have way too may by now.

I agree with the price, would be nice if they were cheaper, but seriously look at the quality difference now vs back then. Its more money but worth it. Look at the x-men line now vs the old x-men. Ewww. Plus i think some of the extra money is going into better bases. Again older statues didn’t really seem to have that interesting of bases. Mostly just plain black bases.

Yah it’s damn expensive. I was able to get the reg & $1200 CAD cash for my TMNt comiquette Ex set. Didn’t want to part with it but I have the other TMNt set by ssc.

Even if I didn’t do that deal, I would probably gotten it using reward points... but in hindsight, it was probably good I didn’t. I intent to use those reward points on Silver Surfer which I know will be very expensive.

This Cable however is probably one of SSC very best sculpt to date. It’s very impressive minus the portals.

I do not the ink the quality has significantly changed from $400 base PF to now. I’m thinking when Hulk PF was what 550? Cap was 400. Thor was 465. Something like that. Quality was right there.

That’s why I’ve held off so far. Hoping I can get the surfer. But these $1200 single statue price points are ludicrous haha

It is pricey but let me tell you the size of thing is massive. Comparing it to something like the new Wolverine PF which is great but what was it like $570? It's about half the size.
