I couldn't justify it at $400 or more plus shipping but at $375 shipped it's a done deal.

nice. at least you won't be paying more than retail in a couple of months when this is all said and done...just like with the Ms Marvel premium format that goes for a $1000 regular version.

I had ordered early and then cancelled due to the larger 1/4 scale. I have now ordered again because with the low ES this may be hard to come by down the road. Hope someone can post some actual pics soon!

Exactly I was doing the same.

Why not right? When we pay aftermarket at a lot more than retail no one complains but when we try to knock down the cost of overpaying sometimes people don't settle well with it. But saving and trading is survival for some of us at the new PF prices of double what 4 years used to be.

wouldn't it be a total surprise if the first guy that opens his statue finds out that the dino/lizard color scheme reverted back to the proto version? that would for sure make the piece even more desirable.

Lol yes it's possible but eitherway I ain't missing this one like the 300 girl. Wow! Update, I just checked Amazon and almost all the suppliers are sold out. All the cheaper ones are out. One is still 399.99 with one left. Some will get more but in one day almost all current stock is gone. I love this! Makes the hobby fun again. GG you guy/ gals rock! Keep up the great work!

Where are the pics! Even though I think I'll be passing on this one now because of the color change, other options, plus the better, hopefully awesome final version, and possibly high priced Sideshow Red Sonja from the same sculptor.

The Gentle Giant folks said that the Raptor is still red per the production samples a few weeks ago.
