Sweet Pea i'd place a close 2nd. Amazing piece!

Baby Doll is the one piece in the line i don't own. I have no plans in paying wacky prices, as i'd place the piece 4th in line of greatness. I can only assume sellers want a high price is because she is the star of the movie + Japanese collectors appear to like the piece?
I bought the Japanese version of Babydoll, where she's holding a gun instead of a sword (I think, or maybe it is reverse) and thought the $500 I paid for her was a lot. Now I laugh

Here's a nice deal on Sweat Pea

Babydoll rocks and she is the focus on the movie and most fighting scenes, so I can see her being the most popular.
I like these pieces because they are straight forward, no BS.
I do think that the Honey Trap pieces are WAY overpriced though.
Like Wwwwwwaaaaaayyyyy overpriced.
I just remember how they would argue that the prices are higher because of the array of materials that were used.
Such a load of crap.

I'm not sure. I assumed the sword version was the Japanese version.

Gun is the Japanese version. The sword and sheath is the US version

I'd also suggest extended cut as preferred version that help fill out the story.

OK, verified. Both hold a sword. US vers hold the sheath in her left, while the Jap vers she holds a gun.
