Thinking that I might sell my cel variant. He's not fitting in my collection, and I need the space for the new Superman PF. No reason to keep IG boxed up when someone else could be enjoying it.

If it doesn't fit in your collection, sell it. I understand things change, but I think it's a shame that so many snatched these up without hesitation only to sell them less than 30 days after taking delivery.

I love mine. It's a fantastic statue, one of my favorites. I have no plans of parting ways with mine. My statue had some problems, but Sideshow took care of me with white glove treatment, great company.

I never know until I have a statue in hand whether it's a keeper or not. I have to live with it a little before making my decision.

Do you guys really have to wonder about those things when you CONSTANTLY see people around here obsessing over ES and resale value?

There are plenty of people here wouldn't qualify as "true fans/collectors."

If you decide to sell, let me know via PM. I maybe interested, my son was telling me to sign up for the wait list and I hesitated, it may go well in his room.

Thanks!

The last 2 Iron Giant Variants have sold for $950 (+ shipping) and $817 (+ shipping). a far cry from the $1200 they were selling for.

too many people bought this with no intentions of keeping it.

I hope their funds get tied up for a while, to be honest. Many people wanted this and couldn't get it...because these knuckleheads were trying to make a BIG score on this statue...now all these "flippers" are competing with one another only to get their money back.
