Yeah just a bit. It's clear that this Alien mythos stuff isn't really selling very well. The only reason this has a small ES is they know they won't sell huge numbers. The mythos queen bust was given an ES of 250 (A proper queen bust in the same form would likely prove popular) That ugly "warrior" mythos statue also has a small ES and is still being pushed constantly in emails and on social media etc despite being out for a fairly long time.
Obviously Sideshow can do as they wish, and with the competition putting out such high end pieces now, the market is no doubt fierce. But it might be time for them to give the people what they actually want. A Dog Alien and a masked City hunter legendary scale bust would be a great start please Sideshow. Just put a bit of love into them and find the right sculptors with a good eye for detail. And as long as they aren't made of shocking quality PVC like the wolf lsb, they will likely sell in large numbers which should allow a better price point in an ideal world.
