I don't think the price for this is bad. 225 at sideshow? Which qualifies for like 10-12 bucks in rewards. Or equal to free shipping. I see a comparison to a joker from 2 years ago that was 50 bucks more. First, different and older license. Second, this is 2 years after and is still cheaper then that. I don't get that comparison.
I saw multiple people saying it would be 300. Because it's avengers and we are all bandwagon jumpers. Ect. Which is silly and insulting. And I don't see those same folks saying anything now, about this being nearly 1/3 cheaper then they said. Funny how that works.
Anyway, it's a great figure. A pretty good price for this brand and company. And I think for the quality they do, very reasonable. Do I wish this was free or 2 cents or whatever? Sure. But they are a business. Most people work for business. If your company was selling things (or charging or whatever it is your work place does to make money) and did so to just break even or loose money and you end up making less are you cool with that? Probably not.
