you can get the regular version from any authorized dealer. this thing is definitely niche...buy it if you like it, but no one is going to pay double for it in the aftermarket.

If this were 2010, yeah, this Chun-Li would even quadruple in value. The problem today isn't quality, but that the economy just isn't there anymore. Breaking even in the aftermarket is the best you should expect to do, and in most cases a 25-75% loss.

Every TMNT & SF that I have got from PCS as of late have been tip-top regarding paint (excluding the finishing decision they made with Bison's armor weathering). I'll be pleased as punch if they can clear two major paint hurdles:
1. Eyes (remembering that first 1/4 Chun-Li)
2. Nailing the paint with the sculpted on straps

True, but you know people are going to put complaints here "saying oh I should gotten this statue but now it cost me 2 or 4 times as much, why didn't I buy it when it was at MSRP.
Btw guys, the statue is almost gone, I just check Sideshow, anyone else still holding out I suggest you do the right thing and pre-order it and if you see the review someone did on this statue which sucks you can still ask for a refund from Sideshow.

Still a good idea to PO from Sideshow to get dibs on replacement parts should you need them. Good pieces still sell out, even if resale is garbage now.
This one is the fastest selling PCS PO I've seen in a while, not surprising given the sculpt comes mostly from game data.

Where are you getting this information? This looks nothing at all like the ingame model and from looking at it I'd say that it's entirely sculpted with none of it being from game data.
edit: in game model from the artist who did it
Definitely not from the game files :P
