I wouldnt wait on Sweet Pea... She's gonna sell out very quick if the details as good as the others. I dont think there is even much options left to pre-order her.

Rocket on the other hand would be a good one to snag for around the $200 range to complete the set.

After 4 tries I finally got a decent one actually is is perfect, and for $183 shipped, glad it is finally over, I would have been just as happy to pay full price, like I did originally, just to get a good one, alot of waiting and shipping back and forth.

Spazzy, your determination is commendable. As good as Amber is, I wonder if I would have the resilience after the third attempt.

After seeing her many times, I couldn't give up, too cool of a statue, plus I want to get all the girls, and she was my second most wanted.

Congrats Spazzy!
I'm going to grab one after Christmas. Unless, a trade deal comes before then.

Thanks!

Definitely worth it! Hated having an empty spot in a prime place in my collection room, but glad it is finally being used.

I think in about 6 months these will start to really dry up and start gaining value. Such a detailed piece, puts alot of other pieces I have to shame, I think I will retouch the eyes a bit though, just to make them pop a little better and not such a mellow look.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

The eyes are definitely a weaker point on this line. Not crazy bad like Sideshow's can be, just could do with a bit of customization or touch up to make them a bit more vivid and realistic.

I don't mind Babydoll's eyes, but Amber's eyes are a little meh to me.
