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

Nothing was confirmed between Sideshow and PCS, but it was discussed.
If a PCS Dejah Thoris 1/3 scale were to happen, I'm sure it would do well.
On topic, Purgatori has a lot of sex appeal, but is a relatively unknown character. I could see her selling, but that wing span is going to make most collectors think twice before picking her up.

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

I dont think Purgatori is a unknown character, certainly not on the Spiderman Marvel type level, but she's been around long enough that most comic and statue nerds like me know her, I do agree that her size probably hurts her for some collectors, however for me, I love it, she's got a display all for herself in my toy room, and if they ever do make a Dejah in 1/3 that looks as good as Purgatori, then I'm gonna have to make room for her too, I dont have any 1/3 statues, but I think I'm gonna like this size actually, other than the space problems of course, but if it looks this good, I'll find a way to make them fit

For this price I expect great quality

She looks great! I used to love Purgatori and Lady Death.

I think Lady Death will be the determining factor, in my opinion.

I downloaded some of her comics cause I'm a sucker for vampires and she's pretty pleasant to the eyes. But I haven't read it yet actually.
I really like this statue from a design and aesthetic point but I'm kind of glad she's 1:3 so I can find an excuse to skip her.
My collection is pretty much only video games and anime characters with a few exception and since I'm not familiar with the IP I would normally skip easy. But vampires are my weakness so yeah, glad to have an excuse to skip.

Anyone know some of the better stories featuring Purgatori?

I will have to dig to see what I still have...
I'd avoid Love Bites... it was fun when it came out 20+ years ago, but it doesn't hold up for me.
Purgatori vs Lady Death... it's better. Flipping through and skimming bits, the story and dialogue are pretty meh. But for tongue in cheek gore and bad girl sexuality, it's kinda fun on visuals alone.
