Licensors revisioning nostalgic characters makes the product inauthentic. Collectors need to stand their ground at some point, and consider custom statues as the only alternative.

That's pretty much what I have been doing.

The colours for Jade and Mileena are stunning. That green shade and tone of purple really pop.

But price points off. Pure arts 1\3 mj was just selling for $678.00 which I bought thank you very much. Good price .... Much power it has.
The right price they will sell way more statues.

That's sideshows sale price though. Not MSRP. Sideshow is taking the hit on that at their prerogative. Purearts retail is 905. Sideshow already paid wholesale based on that. And MJ came out last year. So it was quoted factory pricing probably almost two years ago. We bust our butts negotiating with factories to keep our prices where they are and still keep the lights on and pay our people.

I'm not sure these statues are priced that wrong tbh, it's a hard climate right now and it's a lot of money but if you look at all competition and factor in shipping (which is low on this one) I would say it's decent.
And no, I don't work for PCS
Hope we see Kitana soon also(?)

Yeah but the reasons and details of production don't matter if it is more than people want to pay.

Well. The ins and outs affect the pricing of literally everything. We find our high dollar limited stuff sells just fine without sale pricing. But again, If sideshow wishes to take a hit on some items to clear space and move inventory, that's their choice. They have other product lines to sell to absorb cost. If we found things not selling at our MSRP, we would absolutely adjust. That hasn't been the case so far.
