Unless Sideshow is different?

I just started collecting Sideshow, and none of my pieces are out yet.
I don't own any large PVC pieces, so I would be interested in hearing your perspective on the material since you do own statues made of it. What larger pieces do you own that are PVC? Do they have bends and size like Rogue or Swamp Thing? Do you like the quality of the product (paint, texture, weight)?

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

I was thinking $750 to be like mags, but I cant think of any female piece that has been that expensive. usually just the massive guys. If this is over $1k i will really have to pass I think.

This looks beautiful, but if the price is more than $750, I might be out. I am not sure if I am ready to pay that much for 1/4th scale.

They can’t price this more than magneto. I don’t care how much “engineering” went into it. I feel like a lot potential buyers will drop off significantly if they go anywhere near a grand. I’m very unlikely to even buy it at the same price as mag.

This is my favorite of the show, but then I'm a huge Rogue fan. I always thought she was an interesting character.

I won't even consider it until I know how it's engineered though.

To be honest, this piece appears to have more mass than Magneto. Taking into account Sideshow's "complexity" fees and one year's worth of statue inflation, I would be surprised if it's not a grand.

I would love it to be less, but I have my doubts.

If she's priced like Magneto, I'll consider her. If she's more, then nope.
