Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Its an A-List Marvel character and a sculpt by Pablo Viggiano making it truly irresistible to collectors of this type of art..Sideshow is keenly aware of this; thus the 150$ tax

that is not Hulk, which is why many will pass on him.

As for the other two, I don't think they are worth the asking price. I have five 1/4 scale hulks already, so it needs to be a homerun for me to pay $650-$700 after taxes and shipping.

I might have bit if the exclusive red portrait came with the green version.

I think the seams are here. Not very noticeable but you can see them.

Ambasah is right - this is not the Hulk - it's a completely different character.

I was always comfortable paying $300 or so for a statue - but as they nudge closer and closer to 1K it just doesn't seem worth it to collect anymore
