The base design for Chun-Li 1/3 never made sense to me. Not that that stopped me picking up Alpha

With Cammy, it appears PCS have had no choice but to continue with the same logic as Chun-Li.
The Cammy base has a scale of it's own, a scale that does not match the statue, but pays tribute to the game.

Personally i would have preferred it if they have recreated a section of flooring inspired by the game, and in keeping with the same scale as the statue.

That makes no sense. Classic appears to require less work than the other two?

Hard to say. I'm sure a lot of people would like this set but I'm not sure how many are willing or can afford to drop $2700 for it.

Demand sets the Price. They know most of their customers are going to get the classic cammy no matter what, so why not charge a little more

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I remember Jerry posting that Chun Li was going to be expensive because of the costume. Classic Was going to cost a little more because of all of the an intricate embroidery work. As for Cammy I don't see any reason why classic would cost more, Unless the paintwork cost more than the costuming? Classic has the most exposed body. Decapre Has the most complex costume of the 3 not and a second swap out portrait.

I think the variants are $25 cheaper because PCS knows they won't be as popular as the classic.

A slightly higher price for Chun-Li Classic made complete sense, as the outfit appeared to require more work than the other two. Cammy Classic appears to be the complete opposite, as the other two appear to require more work when it comes to the mixed media. Classic has more detailed boots, although that's simply a cast issue, as the paint appears to be black.

I liked all 3, but for nostalgic reasons I'll prefer classic, just don't like the price

$950 is a lot for me, sad... I remember not a long time ago 1/3 MK statues are like $700... so, why $250 more?

the bridge it's very tiny, looks like if she move a little she will fall, a little strange you can't fight in such tiny bridge, but I get the idea, from the classic stage and all

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

Same here. I really didn't like her base as well. but the classic costume is a must have for me, as it is her most iconic costume. Her stage is always like a street scene or a market, I wonder why they didn't take reference on those.
