That Dilophosaurus looks awesome! But where the heck are they getting these prices from? Yikes!! At a more reasonable price, this might have been an impulse purchase for me, but those days are gone.

I actually really like this piece. I’ve wanted a Dilophosaurus statue for many years and this one is practically perfect BUT based on their track record of poor paint jobs, I couldn't take that kind of risk. Especially not at this price! I’ll wait and see if P1 produces a Dilo, ...here’s hoping!

It does seem a bit high, but everything is up. The last PF from SS is $720!

You’re kidding right?, it won’t be long before I’m out of this game, it’s getting harder to justify spending money like this especially when the quality hasn’t risen all that much if at all .

Loving this statue but as others have said I’ll take a wait and see approach regarding the paint

I wish I was, and it's nothing special either, just a regular DC character.

Great looking statue and the switch out head option is great. The price could possibly be justified if they match the proto paint quality. Let’s see if that happens.......

Piece I've waited for, for a longggg time.
But the price and uncertainty on how the finished paint job will be will make me pass this up most likely.

The Dilophosaurus is gorgeous. I love the pose, the interchangeable heads, the dock sign & the cryo cans. But $900 is way too high. I was thinking around $500. The Parasaurolophus (my personal favorite from CC) was only $500 and way bigger.

On another note, I was so inspired by the Para that I tried to draw Crash's version as well as his rex.

Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

It is a high price for the dilo, but it looks amazing. I wish I could get it.
