Given the character and the price, maybe donating blood for money could help to fund the statue.

but ... I'm done after the Marvel Monsters. They're really what I've been waiting for since I started collecting statues almost 20 years ago. If anyone does a Killraven, I'll pick that up, but the hobby is getting too expensive for me to justify, & I've got an office full of statues to enjoy 'til they plant me.

There's not much I buy that I don't say "really". Seems like everything is overpriced these days IMO. Buy a bottle of water that ends up costing more per gallon than gas. Buy some over the counter cough syrup and the ultimate cost is over $100/gallon.

Only thing I can think of that's a bargain is a stamp to mail a letter across the nation for $0.45.

This pales in comparison to the Diamond Select Milestones version that came out years ago.

I hear you, and agree. But ... I really feel that when added to a BD collection of FS classic Marvel Monster Statues (Man-Thing, Zombie, WWbN, Frankenstein's Monster, Living Mummy, etc ... the collection itself will be just crazy-cool. If I was buying Drac as a stand-alone, I'd be a bit bummed. But, he's the 3rd in a hopefully rich line of Marvel Monsters FSers. The Diamond Dracula would be the one to track down if all you want is a Dracula.
