Well I mean of course it's going to be over 2k....it's 2 1/3 scale characters together. The going price of 1/3 scale P1 statues individually now tends to be in the $1,300'ish range so 2 of them together is definitely not going to be 2k, it's going to be more than that.
People SHOULD be selective.....as I've said 100 times here they're really freaking expensive statues of comic book characters. The people who were buying tons of statues at $500 is why they're now $700, and the same thing for when they were $800 and they're now $1,000, etc. It's honestly insane that something like this can even be made and have it sell enough to be profitable/make more of them.
I get a constant laugh out of all the people who are in the P1 section and infinitely complain about 1/3 scale, yet they have tons of 1/4, 1/5, etc scale statues. It all adds up to the same freaking thing. You can have 1 1/3 scale statue, or ~3 1/4 scale statues. If you prefer the quantity, that's fine. But as far as price/space goes, it all adds up to be pretty much the same thing. It's not P1's fault that the companies who have the smaller scale licenses don't make the stuff you want. They make big stuff, and I love that they do. I'll take 6 P1 statues over 15 Sideshow/XM statues ANY DAY.
