You have no idea how cool it is until you see it in person.

Shipped, I would say you are getting a good deal on it for sure. It sounds about right for this piece right now.

$250 shipped is a great deal but with how low the prices on SW Attakus statues have gone lately you could probably do better. Still I say if its worth it to you then buy it. Thats about what I paid for mine a few years ago and I don't regret it. Easily the best Clone Trooper statue on the market IMO.

Yeah Attakus statues have taken a serious $$$ dive lately- I have a Jango Fett right now that isn't moving even for 255 USD!!!

The demand/market dips every now and then- I am just shocked it has dipped this much for a caliber of collectable like Attakus...I have been able to get some statues for GREAT prices because of it. Right now is prob best time to buy.

Its the lack of announcements and new releases. Overall interest tends to spike when collectors know the line is continuing and that they'll be able to expand their collections. There is a lot of other SW product out there competing with Attakus and most of those companies have made announcements throughout the year regarding upcoming product. Attakus has not and as a result they have zero momentum going into the new year. Unfortunately interest in their SW line has faded as a result and prices on older statues have plummeted. This is great if you're looking to fill holes in your collection . . but not so great if you're trying to move a statue or two.

Good Point!!Attakus MUST need to do more promotion on their products.Thats no doubt Attakus make the best quality of Star Wars statues in the market,But Attakus do not well on promotion on their upcoming products.Its really no good for them and collectors .......Hope they can think about this......

Last week I saw two Ebay auctions for Attakus Darth Maul and Royal Guard both end for less than 150.00, so they're about as valuable as a Gentle Giant statue now. I feel bad for folks who paid 400+ dollars for some of these.
