ARES GOD OF WAR 1:4 STATUE

[wanderlai]

The prices are high geez. I don't think I've seen anything set in stone yet but those are the prices Im seeing mentioned. What about shipping costs? Is that extra to those prices?

$1K for the Conan dio
$650 for Angel of Darkness.
$600 for Ares

I'd rather go through sideshow. 1-Lower shipping,2- better flex payments 3----- loads of points=free statue faster.4-better service.

But i think they are waiting for negotiations from sideshow before setting prices.I though they already knew the prices but they are just going day by day they are lost.They are going to price themselves out of sales.As SSC did with the Conan PF ,they can't move 150 units since july.

I was going to order all of these, but I agree theirs more incentive for them to sell through SS for these pieces. 2k+ worth of PO's is almost $120 in SS points, plus SS's advantage of having much better shipping rates. These will be a tough sell if they try selling direct.

We'll see where it go's, but the minotaur is a must order for me ether way.

Mars the Roman god of War and Ares the Greek god of war shouldn't have anything to do with each other.

Base looks great but i think his head with the helmet on looks way too big.....and at $600, well its an easy one to pass.

[DynamicMenace]

yeah well the high price tags that ARh is chargeing is due to digital printing costs.
just look at the size of that base? that along is the same amount it would cost to print the figure.
probably more due to its highly detailed surface area and complex design with all the dead bodies it has on it. .

if you think about it, it 2 SS Pf all in one. is it worth the price tag? its it is to right person.

I don't know man. The Athena base was pretty detailed, I would say similar with the chariot and décor and it was $365. I wasn't expecting that but not $600 either. I REALLY want it but I'm not sure I can justify $600 for it

[zeus]

The way they price stuff they will only be a company selling 20 pieces only everytime.Conan he expected to sell 500 but at 1000$ he will get less than 30

You're absolutely right..The overpricing is already killing this industry..SS can't even sell 250 Conan Fury of the Beast and 150 Conan Rage of the Undying (both around 500$)...Don't know how ARH expects to sell 500 copies of the Conan Dio for 1K + shipping each !?

I can't see them selling 500 copies for 1K each....and shipping is not included.

There will be no pupils in the eyes and that's not run over paint it's blood. To answer your question about a non blood soaked version...negative. This is what is going into production. Here are some pics from the con.
