Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

i think it looks amazing......the switch out heads look good to me.
Yep... Hulk looks amazing. 1/4 and it would be perfect. I still like it at 1/5 scale as I will just display it with my other 1/5 scale Hulks.

I think this looks worth the price. Hulk is always expensive and I don't see why this should be different.

Of course I would love a lower price but those days are long gone. But I get why those that are collecting the series are upset.

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

For $50 you can get a 1/5 scale Wolverine apparently lol. That came up for order less than 1 year ago.

Come gather round people,
wherever you roam,
and admit that the waters around you have grown.
And accept it that soon you'll be drenched to the bone.

Yes 1/4 would have been awesome but although its 1/5 now it still is huge....i believe its bigger then Bane.

And this pose cant be beat......old school hulk pose for the win.

Exactly. The price on this is ridiculous. If it was 1/4 scale, then I could see $600 + for it. For a 1/5 piece, it's easily overpriced.

Yep, and the base is more complex on the HvW. It's just sad really. I sincerely hope that SS has serious legitimate reasons for the increases, and not just gouging. We aren't talking a couple of bucks here. This is hundreds of dollars over a 1 year period.

I wish i had the money to get into this line, they will look so awesome together and if SS makes a DC version of the line someday, both Marvel and DC side by side would look mind blowing but nothing can be done...Statues are just so expensive, can't get them all...i have to live with that fact.

Well it is 100.00 less then Bane and almost the same size...

I think people were just hoping for a 450.00 statue.. That was not going to happen.. Not at this size.

True, though size is only one of the determining factors in price. $450 seems like it would be a fair price when you factor against HvW. That would mean the 1/5 scale Wolverine would be $200. Then there is the more complex base on HvW.

You have to figure too, it was no coincidence this was the last one to release in the line, also happens to be the most expensive.
