Might want to hurry though...I suspect it'll disappear pretty fast...
Same with Wolverine!

This is a great piece but looks like sales are very poor. Even BBTS had it on sale for $150 I believe.

You really have to own Spidey or Venom to want to get this guy.

Plenty still in stock on kotos site.

I don't own either but I ordered this.
Pretty awesome but not as popular as the other 2 characters.

Sculpt looks great but for reason the pose makes this look small in the promotion pics regardless of the actuality.

Plus this is fairly new. Any statues are so hot right now this will eventually disappear.

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

That's the same thing as spidey and venom when they first came out. aftermarket will suck for these guys so get carnage now

That's unfortunate. I paid full price for this guy. I love the statue so I don't really have any regret but it would have been nice to save a few bucks. Is this the way with Koto in general? I was planning on pre-ordering the Thanos but if Carnage and Wolverine both dropped in price I'd be tempted to wait.

Yea, when Venom first came out, I grabbed him for like...220..?
I thought that was a little much. Others back then were saying he would go up eventually/over time. Now the lowest sold one I found (at a glance) on ebay was 400.

Sometimes things drop but you never know.

I guess so... I have the Hulk, Venom and Koto fine arts, from what I've seen then the Hulk and Carnage have been pretty damn easy to find and I guess went down in price. I guess I'll just wait and see what people are thinking closer to the date.

I don't take my chances. If I like something, I PO and don't have to worry about it later.

That surprised me also. I keep an eye on the bay almost daily. he jumped up faster than any fine art statue I've seen. Captain America Classic was 2nd. All the other greats jumped by smaller increments.


Bowen Hulk's were the better option for the forums/google images overall census. Koto's version ain't bad by no means. I think Carnage's ES was to high. Rogue's more popular and she had 2650. Brown Wolverine's value will rise.
