That's a great piece but I think the classic comiquette exclusive is still the best 1:4 comic Iron man done so far, but I'm biased towards the old-school armor.

I don't understand why the Hulk would be TWICE the price of everyone else. There is zero reason for it, just plain greed. $$

maybe if the squid was 3 x bigger i would have took another look.

why is hulk beating up a little squid? doesnt look right.

and then theres guyver taking on some literally huge monsters. i see sideshows thought process but they had to go cheap again and think they should get the higher prices still.

perfect idea of GREED.

I think it is a bad business move long term/big picture. Sure it keeps the income level for a while but I don't see it lasting.

It can't last. Not everyone rich or just well off collect statues. The way they're pricing this things is just nuts. The price jumps from piece to piece these last 2 years have been completely insane.

Tell me about it! My very first Premium Format was Superman and that was $399 two years ago. Then the new one was released with a Brainiac base and fabric cape for $565? .. Ummmmm

Sideshow is going to have to start offering 10+ month payment plans with these prices. Starting to get close to a car payment per statue.
