Wasn't interested. But now that the story has come out evolving into what it is now as well as having all the other characters introduced, it's nice to know that some of us late to the line still has a chance to own something this cool that was retconned into the story. Granted, it's definitely not as cool as the original one, but it's still a nice option for us.
Agree 100%. But this is indeed SS BS. For future reference....it would be nice if they do not do revisits and just instead do a new pose. What's wrong with doing a new pose for the same character....hello SS...you guys do this with Batman, Spider-Man, Hulk, Wolverine and IM...how you guys get a sudden brain cramp all of a sudden??

Oh I know....it's called lazy!

Anyone else feel like the hype is dying more and more in regards to this line?

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

I dont care much for the hype or whatever of these, but rather enjoy the art and intricate and unique detail of the statues. You can tell a lot of effort was put into designing and creating these statues. Altho I feel that they should have made these very limited edition with much smaller ES then they came out with. I feel like that really waters down the desirability of these pieces.. Nobody has any actual attachment to the characters but I think that if they played the low ES and high quality/detailed aspect it would appeal alot more.

Honestly I'm more hyped for the line than ever. I was interested last year but am committed to it now.

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

Who said anything about fair? They retconned it in. Why are you so pissed? I doubt this will be cheaper than what you paid so chill
Agreed, and to be fair there where 300 old reapers and how many of the new ones 3k? So I do get why they do a new version so that people can complete there set without having to deal with idiots on ebay and wth people who rate this as grail only for the money and ES please get out, you should collect because you like the statue 1st!

I see they removed quite a few comments off Facebook Sean.

Sideshow,

Censor so the masses don't know the truth and sell your BS.

I'm completely done collecting your lies. Which turn out not to be collectible, as you re-release those as well.
