Might turn out to be like past lines when the first run or so is super low then the other characters get bumped up in numbers.
Then these first pieces' values go through the friggin' roof!

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

Assuming of course that the movie itself is not craptastic. If this movie just bombs at the box office it may seriously reduce interest in these pieces. I would like to see the movie do well and these pieces sell like hot cakes.

I dunno even if the movie bombs, the statues are still amazing. With a low run there is always fans out there of horrible movies that will gobble them up.

Well, I think that the action in the film will probably be pretty solid, maybe won't have a great story though. I still look forward to it and think it will be entertaining enough

I think even if the movie bombs, these statues will still be popular and demand a high dollar amount in the secondary market. They do look pretty good..

I'd be hesitant to pre-order any of these Sucker Punch statues after seeing how poorly the face of the Slave Leia mini-bust turned out...

I'm praying that GG is using a different factory for the Sucker Punch girls. If not, what the hell does "sculpted with precision details and hand painted by professional artisans" supposed to mean."

If Baby Doll arrives looking like crap, then there will be massive cancels for Amber and the rest of the line is doomed. GG better get their act together.
