Im thinking by end of next week the sculpt will be done. It had to be put on hold while I caught up on biz stuff after Comic Con. But now its a priority again.

Roughly the same as Chun Li. I can only suggest to Sideshow what the ES should be. THey have a say as well. So does Capcom.

They are very limited. There are over 6 billion people on the planet. Capcom sells millions of Street Fighter games. So 800 or less statues is extremely limited no matter how you slice it.
The question you are trying to ask is, should we be making them more limited so they increase in value at a quicker pace.
As a business, we need to capitalize on the popularity of the Chun Li's and Sagats as that profit is what allows us to make the less popular characters. If we limited Sagat to 500 total pcs then the next time we have a flop, it would REALLY hurt us. By selling 800 Sagats we have now created a buffer to take a risk on a less popular character.
Also, I firmly believe that its not IF Guile and Bison will increase in value...its WHEN. Ken and Cammy were both available for LESS than retail after they came out...but a couple years later they started to increase in value and today they have close to tripled in value.
You watch the same will happen with Guile and Bison..it might take a little longer, but it will happen.
I dont know about ordering more than one of the EX. Im not Sideshow and I dont have any say in how they run their site.
