That's very promising. I just checked and it would be $67 for me. I've checked on a few of their other statues recently and they've been in the $300-500 range for the cheapest shipping option.

That doesn't make any sense. Hopefully, it's not an error on P1's part and they don't increase the shipping cost down the line.

Is P1 statues "made to order" now? Theyve been hiking up the edition sizes with the exclusives or "DX" however you wanna call it, and regulars get low edition sizes, which doesnt make any sense. Not sure if I wanna order until an ES gets established.

They seem to take pre-orders for a long time before settling on a final edition size when they get close to release.

The more people who pre-order the larger the edition size gets.

I’ve never pre-ordered a P1 statue until after an ES is established and they get close to shipping out. If you pre-order too early you end up contributing to increasing the edition size.

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.

A larger edition size is better in my book than having a statue not get produced because it didn't get enough pre-orders.

Has Prime 1 ever not produced a statue that they announced because it had insufficient pre-orders?

Maybe that was why Grail and Deadshot were canceled
