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

Sideshow has officially jumped the shark imo

Such an easy pass...price point is almost laughable

I'm out. Can't justify these prices, no matter how nice something looks.

I really wanted this for the GoTG set. I'm tempted to cancel the other ones now to be honest. I don't mean to be dramatic or anything but I'd rather complete other sets instead.

I agree...but I just can't picture having one without the other...they do look great together but it's just s little to pricey for me....I just don't see the value.

As others have said, would have been very VERY interested in this if it was like 500-600'ish for both, but 900 for each, nope, pass on both of them cause of this.

It was just a few years ago you could get a good 15-16" statue for like 300-400 bucks, the prices have gotten so freaking high it's hard to justify so much for something liek this.

I was soo excited about ordering this, but the price now has me on the fence big time. I wonder why this ended up being so costly compared to previous releases?

The XM version of both characters might be not much more, and I am in australia, so shipping will be similar either way.

Hate to say it, but I think I am going to pass.

In terms of size and not scale, Rocket is like a 1/7 statue with a 1/5 price-tag.
