I'm expecting to pay that for the efx Y-Wing,with Annovos doing their full Clone, Jango, Luke, Vader, and Boba down the line, and Efx only having the wearable Stormtrooper in development, there might be some competitive prices.

I'm thinking it will be $800 to $1K. With this being pulled directly from the ESB Hero mold and with Gino's help, I have high expectations for this piece. I skipped the MR as I couldn't bring myself to spend that kind of money when it clearly showed the "pinch."
I'm actually have my pinch on my MR fixed right now. The good folks over at TDH.com found a way to replace the visor (which was cheaply made) and remove the pinch with heating the inside of the helmet and adjusting the pinch length. It'll fix the helmet, make it accurate to the PP3 helmet, while keeping the awesome interior. I'm pretty excited.
Granted, even with a corrected MR helmet, I'm heavily tempted by the eFX offering if the price is reasonable.

But there's always 'someone' who's willing to do it.
Actually, I already "ruined" mine.
I had him sign mine also but I got it done on the back of the removable piece of the chest plate so it is still signed but not visible. Really nice guy to talk to as well.
That's also a good spot. I wanted it to be visible, and the back side is just a perfect spot.
He is the most humble and kind guy I could imagine. Such a great experience!

He was very kind when I told him about an art piece I was putting together. He kindly explained that what I requested he normally doesn't do, but because he like the idea he would make an exception. Super great to his fans.
Yea, same here. But as I said a couple of years ago... Best to just forget about eFX's pieces until they are actually done. Or else it's just a seemingly endless wait. No carrot, even.

He's been sold out for a good while, they must have found one in the warehouse and stuck it up for sale on their site.
he was delivered today so I'll see if he's a return.

Thanks. Appreciate it. I think it may be a return. Hard to say other than there's only one battery in the 3 pack. But I checked it up and down and don't see anything wrong with it. Maybe it was someone who's waitlist converted very late and sideshow let them get on a payment plan and they received it and didn't like it so that's why it popped back up on their site. Not sure. I'm happy with it and my two year old will freak out when he sees it so I'm doubly happy with it.

congrats, glad you snagged it!
I have one of these busts brand new just sitting in the box. I am thinking of selling it since I will be purchasing the life size Boba Fett statue. The only problem is shipping this bad boy out will cost a lot since its down in Hawaii. I might have to remove the bust from the original box and re box it to a smaller box. Errrr
