How much is the actual retail price for Legolas through INART directly? I’m wondering how much the mark up is from Kit.

$489, but that's before shipping. No flat rate or free shipping this time by the looks of it.
I'm considering waiting for the Legolas 2.0 Two Towers version with the armor. You all know its coming in 2 years. I can wait.

"Shipping due later" is definitely unsettling.

I almost bit at the rage bait.
Rage bait? Almost....?

Yep, and I don't think there's any real precedent that's been set for how much we can expect for shipping fees. I'm leaning towards ordering elsewhere because of that, but I'm also kind of worried about the possibility that they'll optimise with a Mirkwood bow, but only for the direct sales again, like with Aragorn's ranger cloak. Decisions, decisions...

Definitely a price hike then. These price creeps will unfortunately become the norm as time goes on. Unfortunately also for my wallet, it’s not enough to stop me from ordering.

A $40 hike from Gandalf, which was announced two years ago. So at this rate we're looking at around $635 for a fully rooted Inart figure in four years' time. I can't wait!
Ordered Legalos but I'll probably pass on the Nazgul at these crazy prices. Aragorn was an instant order but I've been hesitant about getting the whole line. Last two I'd likely consider are Gimli and Frodo.

$67 more from Kit. Obviously he's gotta make some profit but I'd imagine at minimum half of that is shipping fees.

Thing is, sooner or later someone is gonna churn out recasts or KOs. Heck ASMUS may or may never come out with sculpt upgrades. 3rd party figs. May not have the movable eyes but InArt isn't using top of the line glass eyes either.
The customs I've seen where someone rooted ASMUS Legolas v1 look pretty good.

Which community tho. I like watching YT vids of reviews. 3500$ Predator and Alien statues. Full size busts and 1/3 silicon statues. Even poor like me gets glassy eyed and coughs up for that gotta have piece. This stuff sells someone is buying.

Prices are never gonna change from people complaining. This will sell whether you buy it or not. Reminds me of when HT came out with the first Diecast IM figure. People were losing their minds at the $300 price point. That sure as hell didn't stop them from continuing with that trend.

No, no, I wasn't asking for evidence. Your comment was the evidence.
