Yeesh. This is the most hate I've ever seen for a statue. Pretty harsh.

I agree that this is a risky line to jump into. The coin base is a fail and the Zord base is pricey. Granted the price is warrented for all of the reasons given but im defiantly out. I don't love the rangers that much for 1k. I will say that with the Zord base this is defiantly a beautiful piece. I do with PCS luck with this line.

At this point that would Cost PCS even more money and then be reflectef in the price. They just paid out in R&d and prototyping to get this to where it is, they'd have to fold that cost into another statue.

I honestly think the Zord base is amazing, but I'm not a PR fan. I can however appreciate the piece. The only tjing that might lower costs is making more of them which people would then complain about ES, though 1993 would be a cool number.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I understand that clear resin and the size of the base warrants a higher price but that is a HUGE difference in price from the regular and exclusive base. Knowing that the exclusive base would be the popular choice. Only to be give a choice that is disappointing as a cheaper option. The attraction for this piece died as soon as all of the details and price were announced. I want this line to do well, but this is a really bad start for the 1:4 line

Blue command center tile would have been a better base. Cheaper too.

Sometimes less is more.

If you want nice things you have to pay more money. I will try to get this statue but because of the price it's low priority and I already have a bunch or pre-orders.

I don't know how popular Power Rangers are currently (I'm sure if the movie was better it would have helped) so I can't speak to how many fans are out there with deep pockets, but, I seem to remember the same thing being said about Sideshow's Thanos on Throne when it's price was announced and that literally sold through the EX in minutes.

Now I'm not saying the Green Ranger is as popular as Thanos, but, this also has less than a third of the ES. I think with only 193 of the Zord base being made they will sell. Though I do agree with most of you on the coin base, it's really not something that tickles my aesthetic fancy. So would not be surprised to see those sit for a bit, but what do I know, there might be a contingency of PR fans that love it.

Zord base is nice. I wish I could do it but I'd have to give up a few other things I'm interested in the 1/4 range.

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

I could be wrong someone please correct me but wasn't Bison bust put on hold or cancelled? Also wasn't cammy base reworked after criticism? Maybe base needs to be smaller maybe base should lose water effect. I don't know but with everything else that's going on with pcs for refunds times, recent qc issues, delivery time I'm sorry I just don't see this selling at 1k. I sure as hell would love to be humbled by sales when it sells out but I don't see it happening. Sell out please so line can continue.
