I've only tried that part once and didn't notice to be honest. I really like it but as you said it was overpriced. I think everything we buy is too much for what they are but what you gonna do eh?

Yup can't do much. But yes this is my last HT. No more HTs for me. It is now evident to me that the prices are going up and the quality is going down.

Same thing everyone is saying about Sideshow. :(
 
Re: ☆☆☆ Pimpin My Shelves® ☆☆☆ 〖Update - Page 202〗

I think the same problem not for Hot Toys but Sideshow:) They have a serious quality problem and sadly they seem like don't care a little cause nobody stop buying or cancel their orders:)

But SSC haven't exactly shot up in price. I mean it was pretty much in the bracket of $250-$300 from before. Whereas I remember HT sold for $150-$200. And now pretty much they are averaging at $399 a pop. So far I am not that disappointed with SSC except for the recent BW and HULK issues. But those issues are repairable whereas you can't do a damn about HT. Even if you ask for a replacement you are still going to get the same quality.

Yeah good points! Now bring me my Hulk SSC :rock
 
Re: ☆☆☆ Pimpin My Shelves® ☆☆☆ 〖Update - Page 202〗

This only looks cool. But the quality is pretty cheap and pathetic IMO. Surely not worth 300 bucks

Nice Pics Sarvesh. About HT I dropped them about 6 months ago. Like you said there prices have shot up but you don't seem to be getting anything more for your money. I remember buying there Blade for £90 delivered. Those were the days :)

Thanks RB.

:exactly: Glad to hear that I was not the only one feeling so. I don't mind a few quality issues but when it overall goes down it is time to move on.

Congrats on the new addition and your pics look great my friend. :hi5:

Being a HT collector myself, I would have to agree about these items costing way too much or are overpriced. I am a huge Iron Man fan, as you couldn't tell, :lol but I am holding off on getting any of the HT Iron Man 3 Diecast line due to the high price increase. Not wanting to really do that, but $320 shipped for the 1/6 HT Iron Patriot is just crazy. :panic:

Yeah back in my day you could get 10 pints of beer, fish and chips and the bus home for £1. Those were the days. :lol :wink1:

The times i had to listen to things like that when i was a kid. :gah:

Thanks bud. Yup the prices do seem steep now. Specially when you look at the size which is only 1/6th and is made of plastic. And also it is not exactly a limited numbered edition. Doesn't make sense paying. :dunno

Great pictures of the light cycle, it's a shame that it's cheap. :slap If it's any consolation, I would never have guessed it's crappy quality from your photos. :duff

Thank you MM for the kind words. Just want to be honest with what I felt when I opened it. But yes it carries off the cool factor exceptionally well.

Re: ☆☆☆ Pimpin My Shelves® ☆☆☆ 〖Update - Page 202〗

Ok here is a quick comparison to what I am trying to say. As you can see from the photo below, a $5 mini table lamp (plastic) and $299 HT Tron Cycle (plastic). I don't see any faults in the finish of the $5 mini lamp and it even looks just as glossy and perfect shape as the cycle. It has 2 points of articulation and it even lights up. The material (plastic) on both products feels exactly same when touched. $5 mini lamp quality is supposed to feel cheap because it is meant to be cheap. But $299 cycle quality is not supposed to imitate the lamp. :monkey1
