$225 for an Owl Ship? Check this out first!

DC Direct is scheduled to release their foot-long Watchmen Owl Ship statue next month to coincide with the movie's release on DVD & Blu-Ray. The price of $225 is pretty steep. Yesterday I got a pre-sale announcement from Amazon for this neat Owl Ship/Blu-Ray package that's only about $90. I like the "action" sculpt with the water much better than the DC Direct version AND you get the movie discs too!
By the way, if you're planning on getting the "Director's Cut", be aware that one final version of the director's cut will be coming out around Christmas that includes the live-action shots of the newsstand kid (not seen in the theatrical version) edited into the "Black Freighter" animated movie.

This was mentioned in the Blu Ray thread. Its a nice set for sure but overprised. BTW there will be an Ultimate Edition coming out in December so you might want to hold off buying this for the moment.

No, it doesn't light up. The water is the same clear material Bowen usues for Ghost Rider's & Frankie Ray's hair. They probably back-lit it for the photo.

Can't swing it with this price tag. Give me a $25 BluRay and I am all set.

I saw that a while ago and pre-ordered it from Amazon.com. Now all I have to do is by a blu-ray player. Any suggestions?
