To me this is nothing more than a REALLY expensive set of MacFarlane figures.

Its actually a really nice set that I just picked up a few weeks ago for a really good price. I didn't have high expectations before I received it but it was a pleasent surprise. From top to bottom its around 17' high. The paint apps aren't sloppy and the sculpts are very, very detailed. It fits nicely with the other alien dios. If you can pick one up for $100 - $140 I would say jump on it.

Yep, both this dio and the Elder on Throne statues are made from the exact same plastic and paint as McFarlane figs, the only difference is these are not articulated. They are even made in the same factories. The price is totally unjustified, shouldn't cost more than $50 tops. The only reason they cost $140 or whatever is because they know people will buy them due to the success of the Masterpiece series.

When I first got the Elder on Throne and realized that it was the exact same thing as a McFarlane fig, I returned it immediately to SSC in complete disgust. I will say the paint on this AVPR one looks WWWWAAAAYYYY better than the Elder on Throne thing, but it's still ridiculously over priced.
