I don’t understand. Why €1600 for the exclusive? It is the same price as the regular?

Don't know. So on average that's the prices.
If you want the exclusive you must pay € 1600.
If you want the regular you must pay € 1400.

(Have now found a shop that is € 50 cheaper)

I don't understand why we the Europeans don't have access to the exclusive version through local retailers and the ones that have it increase the price by 200-300€ when it's supposed that both versions are priced the same in Prime1Studio's web.

That’s nothing new.

For years outside of the Sideshow and Prime 1 online stores, all other retailers (domestic and international) were only provided with the standard non exclusive version of statues. This was a way to direct customers directly to their sites, but the cost difference between them and our locals stores could make that price prohibitive. For example the cost of importing an Exclusive directly could cost me anywhere from 40-100% more than it would cost me to buy the regular locally from Popcultcha here in Australia.

But since the fallout between Prime 1 and Sideshow, a small selection of other stores somehow started to source Exclusive pieces.

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

I expected some inflation and she be $800-900 range.

I don't know, but between this and P1 Zatanna I think I'm seeing even if I adore a statue how much the price is starting to weigh on me.
I totally understand. I don't understand the price of this at 1/4 scale. Im so worried that the LoTR line is going to be $1200~ for each 1/4 statue. I asked prime 1 about pricing in thier FB page and they said its based off statue complexity and paint. But I still cant understand how these 1/4 scale stayues are getting more expensive than their 1/3 lines.

Well, Aloy is cheaper than Kratos so I have no idea how pricing works. maybe the licence fee?

Regarding LotR... I am kinda nervous for the price for that Gandalf vs Balrog piece myself.

I’ve also heard from my retailer that they had to buy 2 regulars to be able to buy one exclusive. Not sure if it’s true but since I’ve seen several packs of Witcher Eredin offered that had 2 regular and 1 exclusive (for some reason they didn’t split em up), it could be true.
I can deal with the 200-300 however because you’d pay more in shipping and import fees in Europe than that when buying from prime1 directly. However if they started a European warehouse I’d be all over it, who wouldn’t

There are rumors about it from time to time.
Yeah, that would be great.
