I'm hoping we get all the Avengers made. I think IM Mk VII is confirmed also.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

on the other side you have people with a ton of disposable income and will buy it regardless. Sadly I've known a few collectors who've also accrued a ton of credit card debt as well in this hobby that they simply can't pay off simply because they have to have the latest thing. Living paycheck to paycheck is not something I'm willing to do, but many are so its all up to them...to each their own I guess
Personally I put it all into perspective. I'm getting married in 3 months and our monthly mortgage payments will be somewhere around $1100-1300 each month. Not a huge amount but its still a nice chunk of cash each month for my first home. If Sideshow thinks I'm spending the same amount of cash on a statue that I do on my house payments...well they'll lose me as a customer. I have a great time in this hobby but I'm not putting a financial strain on myself in order to participate in it.
I'm capping myself at $650 for this piece which is roughly the same amount I'll pay for the Batman 1:1 when its all said and done. Will it likely be priced higher than $650? Sure. Will i care? Nope.

First of all let me say an early congratulation for getting married and finding your other half
Second I totally agree this hobby is very expansive and getting in credit card debt because of it is very stupid and a risk I am not willing to take.
I am willing to pay a good amount of money for it because Hulk is the best marvel character for me & I think this will be the one and only hulk statue in my collection.
I refuse to pay the price for 2nd market PF HULK so this is what I want.

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.

Either the OP works for SS or has an obsession with price guessing in every thread Like I've said before, keep up the good work in helping SS jack up the prices on these

I'm sure sooner than later we'll get a modern-looking comic-based Thor. There's good money to be had there, and they know.

Yeah, Lets delete this thread and make a new one where everybody votes for $500. I'm sure Sideshow will charge that if we all say that's what we want to spend.
It doesn't even matter what we say. The aftermarket has already proven what a Hulk statue of this caliber will go for.
Same goes for the Predators. The CM Predator goes for more than $3000. Tell me why Sideshow didn't just charge $2500 or $3000?
If their 1/5 scaled Ex. Vampirella goes for over $700 then why didn't they charge that or close to it for the Excl. PF?
