Yeah thats pretty high for Palpatine. I just bought this piece a while back and paid $307 for mine so I'd say be patient and wait unless you feel like spending $360 for the BIN that galactus mentioned. Average price right now is around $320.

I don't know of any good sites that actually review Attakus pieces but these boards and the official Attakus site are a pretty good source for information and MintInBox.net have some of the best pictures I've seen if you're looking for a visual reference site.

Well the Royal Guard is a different story. That piece has been on the rise as of late and averages around $575 so $529 isn't a bad deal at all. I have this statue as well and definitely think its worth the $$$ if you can afford it. Mine is displayed next to the Emperor with Maul on the other side which makes for a pretty impressive setup.

Hi Loudmouth! I'm from the Philippines too. Why don't you try getting your Royal Guard from Blister. Got mine for $600.00 shipped to Manila

Hi! Sir Felix...its me Patrick the guy who bought your Darth Maul. Just got my attakus palpatine and royal guard today I will get Jabba on may, so the only "must buy" items for me is the Boba Fett(Vader 1 is way out of my reach), maybe Blister can quote me a gud price on this

Thanks

Hi Patrick! I have a friend in England who has a Boba Fett for sale. If you're interested, I could inquire how much he's selling it for.

I don't think Blister has the Boba in stock

Congrats on your recent acquisitions!!!!

Agree with HB. Actually, I've seen Royal Guards going for even more money. Some Attakus pieces are getting very high priced again. Did you see how much Vader 1 is going for? $1400-$1500! And how about R2?? It's hitting $700!
Anyway, I LOVE the Royal Guards. I have two that I keep next to my Emperor inside a custom acrylic case. Like HB said, VERY worth the money. It's a beautifull, beautifull piece. Here's a pic I took of the ones I have. Sorry about the TX in the front. The biatch never learn!
