I just can't accept having so much tied up in one piece. As qz often proclaims, these are mass-produced (albeit in smaller numbers than typical mass-produced items). They're not investments, and I'm not 'investing' more than 2K in any of them, at this time.

PCS likes going after these high profit margin items. They don't need to sell that many to make it worth their while.
Give it time, and i bet Sideshow will be knocking 25% or more off of the price.

We'll see. Ant has said no more 'discounting PCS items'. From which product, going forward, I don't know. But I believe he said that if any do try to discount, they will be cut off for future products.

I think this was part of the nebulous 'Phase 1', that I've never seen officially announced. From a stream, I believe.

They want people to order direct from them and if people know it’ll be a lot cheaper from Sideshow they won’t bother. Can’t expect Sideshow to keep your products in their warehouse forever if they can’t sell them at retail price.

You can bet this thing will only be made to fill the EXACT orders they get.

Haha Cut "off from future products". Gotta love it. Yeah say that to BBTS or Sideshow and they'll present their middle digit.

The actual price on the PCS website states: $3,599.00
$401.00 less than $4,000.00
$3,599.00 still seems high.

PCS would have absolutely factored in the ability to slash 25% off and still make a profit. That's my guess.

Nah the 500 extra bucks on Sideshow are to cover their fees.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
