It makes me wonder what the wholesale price is for Popcultcha from Sideshow. As Popcultcha has to account for shipping (from Sideshow and then to me), custom duties, sales tax, warehouse storage and other overheads, and of course profit.

Pretty sure Popcultcha gets their stuff straight from Chinese factories at least that is how PCS and others have done it.

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

Yea, they would send their order direct to Australia from China.

Makes sense, as it would save on shipping. Though sucks we still have to wait 2-3 months after Sideshow starts shipping their batches out first.

All I know is that Popcultcha/Ikons corresponds directly with Sideshow whenever there are issues with any pieces.

It's nice. Has presence, and looks good next to Grogu. The paint app is just not quite there, though.
