Gotcha, probably why I got my reaper for $150 from the local shop. I was wondering why they were selling it less than retail, now I know.

Production costs are constantly rising and to be honest even at $175 these are stupidly cheap, anyone else making these they would be $250 easily, especially something like Reaper.

Agreed. The quality is very good and its polystone so the price point is cheap compared to other statues.

I only have Genji and Reaper but very satisfied with both.

Yup, $175 is still an amazing price. Just as long as they don't go over the 200 dollar mark, ill keep buying them (not counting D.VA)

Pretty sure all the tanks will be over $200 due to their size.

Yup looks like they have been increased I also got Tracer, Widow and Reaper for $150

I do want Mercy, Hanzo, Genji and Sylvanas, but they have also increased the shipping cost to Australia. It used to be alot cheaper

Paying $111 USD shipping for Sylvanas and Genji just isn't worth it.

Yup it's insane.
  • Tracer cost me $30.62
  • Reaper cost me $18.04
  • Widowmaker cost me $32.37
  • DVA cost me $97.31 (huge statue I guess)
  • Illidan cost me $11.91
  • Grommash cost me $112.35 (this was a killer - it came back in stock for like 5 minutes back in October 2017 so I had to have it)

DVA and Grommash were definitely painful on shipping

When they did the gear store redesign this year, I feel like the shipping costs were increasedd a bit.

Having a look at shipping charges now for items I want
  • Genji is $33.53
  • Mercy is $22.32
  • Hanzo is $22.32
  • Sylvanas is $87.50

Surprisingly it's not too bad on Mercy and Hanzo. Not sure why Sylvanas is so much.

because Sylvanas is a 1/5 scale statue... like Illidan I'm sure her box is at least 25x15x15 in dimensions.
