Why do people buy a statue of anything, because they like it.

No it isn't at all. $550 for the Reg is the same price as the Ultimate Warrior which no one had a problem with and this has ALOT of intricate paint details.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Bases needs to be cut down do these companies even think sometimes. Out of all the companies I expected pcs to get it right when it comes to bases. They have been save spacers for years what happened with this line?

The plain expression head looks so, so much better than the other one. The base looks like it was made by a 10 year old in art class.
$600 for that seems pretty steep.

The base isn't great. I don't think it's supposed to be.
It's a small step up from what Gentle Giant offer, which amounts to a clear plastic base.
The price is on par with Gentle Giant pieces of the same scale.
While i'm no fan of Wrestler statues, Ric Flair appears to look like a decent enough piece for those that are. Given that PCS are looking to deliver within a year and use factories that XM studios use, the quality should turn out good - better than the Jerry era PCS
The Ric Flair paint appears to require quite a bit of time and effort. especially the silver details.
When you take into account what Prime 1 charge for a 1/4 scale piece ($900) and how Sideshow prices are climbing (their pieces have more detailed bases) it all add's up to challenging times for these companies.

What was Akuma 1/3 costing two years ago? For What PCS holds as a banner character for them.
Now 1/4 Flair for the most niche collectors is $600. Sounds crazy
Because the $550 warrior no one said anything doesn’t mean it wasn’t thought, but warrior being warrior still gets cut some slack.
