The $90 Figma figure has more display options and is guaranteed to have better resale value over a dusty, hopefully not broken 1/10 statue trying to break even at $310, to factor in fees. 1/10 statues at these prices are an admission that the hobby has been "dead" for some time, with the secondary market is more about minimizing how much of a loss you're willing to take, and while the level of detail has improved by leaps and bounds, the quality control is all over the place for everyone.
I like this piece but at $250, it's a no from me. Iron Studios Lion-O looks like a steal for what you get at the same price. What is next, 1/20 scale "statues" at $150?
