Those were the days, we thought it was expensive then... Little did we know. At last the actual sculpts etc are of a much higher standard in general now.

Yeah, I thought I was out of my mind spending $250 on a statue back then. Look at us now. I think SSC had excellent quality statues back in the day. They had fuller casts and great QC.

I do think SSC has increased their QC by leaps and bounds the last 2 years or so. I also think SSC's sculptors are giving us some phenomenal sculpts the last few years and things are definitely on the rise with SSC. My last 6 PFs from them have all been winners in my book. I'm excited to see what else they have in store for us.

it is always funny to hear people voice an opinion as if it was a fact.
More important is the emotional age. You could probably get pretty close by counting on two hands.

I especially enjoy every post containing at least 2-3 contradictions... It's like reading "how to NOT make a point".

"Future grail", "best", "masterpiece", "nothing can top this", "PERIOD" ---> "oh, btw, just one complaint..." lol

"XM - too toyish", "CASE CLOSED" ---> "oh, btw, Magneto and Blackbolt are good statues" haha

"Adam West Batman is too goofy and outdated", "successful businessmen with SOCIAL LIFE hate the toyish vibe" ---> "oh, btw, I bought it." "oh, btw, not for my main, real, "this is serious business, mancave", but for my second 'sh!ts-n-giggles' mancave." priceless

Over priced. If this was in the $500 range, the EX would be long gone. Also, they already released a classic DP PF, so demand won't be as high. I have the OG PF and I'm passing on this. I'm not dropping $700 on a statue of a character I already have (and paid only $350 for).

I would've definitely bought this if it was at the $550 mark or below. I think its overpriced at $700, too.

I think if it had a preset ES like Thanos it would be on waitlist already. There is no impetus for people to order when there is no risk of them missing out.
