I'd be shocked if she's over $379.99...I guess it'll all depend on what she's got with her, but even with a swap out HS, that's likely as high as it'd go...I believe. Again, it's all speculation until Tuesday, but that's where I'd place my bets.
As for the EX...I'm not sure what it'd be. A masked HS is possible, as it's not vital to the character and would act as more of a bonus for those who get it. I mean, it's awesome, and definitely suits/becomes the character, but it'd still work without it. I could also see them throwing in a swap out weapon or the likes, and just doing both HS for everyone. It really could go any way...Sideshow has been a little less predictable on this front lately.
Either way, this one definitely came out of left field, and I'll be checking back until Tuesday to see if any pictures pop up!
This is basically where I hit last year. I went on a run of sorts of wanting so many things, and now I've hit the point where I had to cancel things that were more...spur of the moment buys, over things that actually spoke to me. They were beautiful pieces of art that'd be great to own...but as you said, things are flying out now, and there's some great stuff to choose from, so even from a simple artistic standpoint you've got to be picky. Red Sonja looks amazing, and I'm sure she'll turn out fantastic...I did have to cancel her though, as I've had to slow my orders and am now trying to focus on characters that really mean something to me over pieces that just look pretty (not a knock to anyone who buys things that just look pretty! If you can afford it, more power to ya!)
With the two Alien busts on the way for 2014, this looks like it MAY be one that I hammer down for 2015. It'll depend on the reveal Tuesday (or sooner!)
