We need Ra to complete the set. Make it happen Paul, please.

Despite the reduction in the ES, I'm happy to hear that the set sold through. At least collectors will get a nice piece of Stargate memorabilia. I wanted Anubis bad. I even had the space set aside for him, but the price was just higher than I could justify for 1:2 scale. I'm still upset about it, but you can't get everything. I don't think it's that Stargate isn't popular, I think Paul was just dealing with a scale not popular with buyers and the price point turned a lot of people off. Too bad, as they are nice pieces.

I would have LOVED to have ordered these - I just couldn't afford them. I agree that Stargate can still sell well with the right product at the right price point...for example, 1/6 scale statues of these characters at $300 each like Tweeterhead is doing with D.C.

I disagree. I don't think Stargate is as popular as you all seem to think. It's a long lost franchise. Sure there are those of us that loved the movie and thought it was ahead of its time, but it was not a legacy movie or TV show. Either way, I am happy these were made and glad that they sold out at 100 sets.

Yes, I always think of 1/2 busts as a more value oriented line and these were very expensive for that. I think other 1:1 props or studio scale ships and a 1/4 figure line would still sell. With the new reboot coming there will be a bump in interest as well.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

The scale is quite popular among collectors.
The price is reasonable for such a rare collectible.

If the first two 1:2 busts are already sold out, I would imagine Chronic Collectibles could easily sell a 100 piece RA 1/2 bust to finish this trilogy for those who supported this project.
Come on CC you owe it to yourself and us crazy, weird, collectors to finish a truly ICONIC trilogy of these Stargate death masks.
You did all the work to get this license and created amazing 1:1 & 1:2 pieces (F the haters btw!) and you know it was all only a lead up to RA!
I really hope you take this into consideration. (And I didn't even get in on the pre-sale sadly)
