Enterbay's gonna milk this so hard
They'd just feel embarrassed if they show positiveness towards a "doll" in a "grown up" forum.
Seriously what kind of adult would spend thousands to collect shoes that will deteriorate & when they hardly wear them?
It's not any more kiddy than collecting Basketball cards.
But i have to agree it's too expensive. I mean you can literally buy a pair of 1:! Jordan XI with that kind of money.
From a normal person point of view i would say it's stranger to see a person pimping up the room with sneakers than a doll, at least a doll may look like a statue or furniture while a sneaker looks just like a, well, sneakers.
I bet many of them already preordered 2 EB Jordans, 1 for keeping & 1 for selling at a premium though. Understand most Air Jordan Collectors know what Scalping & Reselling at a premium is more than toy collectors since Air Jordan collection started way back.
And 1/6 aint a limited market anymore. It's probably the dominant market in Adult Collectibles. It's something like Rolex, people'd buy at least 1 in their lifetime if they had the extra cash & some people collect more than 1.
I'm a full pledge sneakerhead, been in the game since late 90s and I'm not embarrassed at all to say that I freakin' love these Enterbay MJ figs, so does a ton of fellow sneakerheads in my sneaker community and YES we all have these Enterbay figures...call em' a "doll" all you want fact is, this is by far the best ever action figure of MJ EVER, to me they're big boy toys really and not for kids....personally it's an easy cop for me! I wanna put it out there as well that I wear or have worn all my kicks... ALL of them and I have 100+ pairs...not even one pair is deteriorating like you say on your post, it's how you take care of your sneakers really, each one is made with different material, etc. so you have to know how to maintain and clean them to keep em' looking fresh...My suggestion to you though (and to everyone else here that has the same opinion like you), if you don't know the sneaker game, don't talk...because there's things that you don't know about the culture. Were more than just guys who collect sneakers. It's a lifestyle, its art, its a passion...If I tell you I have own a 1984 Jordan 1 OG in a pristine condition would you believe me? I do and its not deteriorating whatsoever...us sneakerheads are not just about blowing off money...we obviously know how to protect the hundreds of dollars we spend...just like another fellow hobbiest who's into a different type of hobby like muscle cars, vintage baseball cards, etc. they know the hobby, the game and the passion behind it...btw my home office is full of Jordans, Air Maxes, Asics, NB, etc. to "pimp" out the room...ok so what? Everyone has their own passion and unless you know what you're saying...I wouldn't even talk bra... RESPECT
Im a sneakerhead, anything Michael Jordan is pretty much a purchase for me. The EB figures will proudly be on display with all my other Jordan and Chicago Bulls stuff
Please note that if you are from overseas and will not be attending to the ACGHK, do not register but stay tuned for further announcement regarding on purchasing this from our online store or from your local retailers.
Looks like we'll have a chance to purchase after all
Where was that from?
HahahaaSo much for the red warm ups being exclusive to the #45 away version
These people don't know the sneaker culture...each sneakerhead has a story as to what got them started, they've got their own reasons to be in the game, etc. For me, its always been the memories I shared with my Dad growing up watching and following MJ...were both big MJ fanatics and collectors of any Jordan memorabilia, but my Dad has long passed away but I carry on that passion we shared through the years, it's also been a way for me to really keep all the special memories I had with him and keep those alive...I guess you can call me a "sentimental" collector...but truth be told, my collection comprises of about 80% Jordan kicks and 20% others like (asics, nike, reebok, etc.)...its because I can relate more to Jordan sneakers compared to anything else as I know exactly where I was with my Dad and what we did when MJ rocked a specific sneaker...

You could be right potato. I (& maybe a few others) might have assumed that EB meant the warm ups were only meant to be available with those exclusive #45 figures, & those alone. But after reading the description again, maybe it could mean that it's available for any "exclusive" Jordan figure EB chooses.Enterbay said:Chicago Bulls Home team warm up suit .(Available forExclusive Limited Edition ONLY )
