Good to know. I had just assumed that you were charging an extra $350 to cover import fees and shipping since it's all included. I wasn't balking at your pricing, specifically. $2,350 is just a large sum of money regardless in this quickly escalating hobby.
I would prefer to pay the extra $350 up front though and not have to worry about import fees, taxes, and shipping down the road.

Not so much a roller coaster... more of a straight escalation.
Action figures -> Hot Toys -> Premium Format statues -> Prime 1 -> JND Studios. I've started looking at Infinity Studios busts as well but think I'll stick with JND for the time being.

I mainly collect statues, but I’ve still got about 70-80 figures in my collection, and I’ve yet to have a single figure experience any sort of deterioration that wasn’t my own fault.

Lets look at one of the most well known 1/6 scale collectors in the world, Dean Knight for instance. He is very careful with his collectibles, he lives in the UK so the temperature is ok, and he is also facing deterioration on some of his figures.
Of course there are always special situations that hold a perfect clean record, and I am very happy to read that you are one of them
I am just hoping that the silicone material and the pleather of JND Studios will hold up and stand the test of time

All of his figures are out in the open. I’ve got mine behind glass with no ‘apparent’ gaps, as I usually seal all my cabinets as best as I can.
And I plan to do the same with any future silicone statues that I buy.... though my current Thanos and Hulk busts are not

drats. Ill probably have to wait till next friday to order as one of my yolo limit buys executed and hoovered up all my cash in one go.
As far as displays go, i used to buy those Pulaski Chocolate Cherry Slider sealed display cabinets as they were excellent quality. However, the design changed and now its nowhere near what they used to be. Probably need to invest in custom display cases but ill get around to that later.

I don't think this cat suit is material, I think it's fully sculpted. one less thing to worry about.

That would be great, is there an official confirmation for this?
