Yea, I've never understood why people buy a reg versus an exclusive from the SS. My guess is people may not be aware that exclusives are available from the actual company, just customers of bbts, see's a cool statue and just PO's.

My guess would be that collectors "in the know" enough to buy directly from Sideshow were more hesitant from seeing the price hike compared to previous SS statues and were skeptical the production piece would justify it. BBTS customers are probably used to seeing XM, Blitzway and other expensive import stuff listed side-by-side with Sideshow's, so it might've been less jarring. Also, shipping's way cheaper if you don't care for the exclusive, especially with the Pile of Loot feature.

I wished SS can cut the Es on these that don't sell well. This ex should have been 500 like lex is. Who knows maybe they have not even sold 500 of these in a year yet. Not a good sign.

Let's face it, this is Capt Marvel, not Hulk or Ironman.

I agree I never even heard of this character until I saw this cool sculpt from SS.

You still haven't figured out this is Ms. Marvel?

I never seen her in comics before until now. I'm not sure who she is. I'm guessing she's either the classic ms marvels new costume or a spin off for a new character like spider woman and spider Gwen. I did google it and still no real info on who she is suppose to be or why she has a new costume. I'm serious not being a trouble maker. I did look it up and still confused. But because of Newmans sculpt I must own her.

Better I would say because of Mark Newman a veteran super sculptor imo. Pose is insanely cool on the SS version. Face is full of bada$$ expression and good ex.
