Hot Toys 1/6 Tumbler/Batpod Batman

[Wanderer]

Dear oh dear...
How did Studio Sunny and BBTS get to two wildly different price points???!! I think one of them, if not both, have been smoking some tweed yo

 

[Rock83]

At BBTS,the figures cost more as well,more than any other place,so im sure the Batmobile will be cheaper other places,but heck,why not jump on the Batmobile on ebay and get it cheaper anyway,.

do we know what the dimensions of the Tumbler are? I need to picture what $700 looks like... to see if it's still worth it.

They are prolly adding in overseas shipment fee into the price.

These prices are ridiculous. I wonder what Toys2 will charge.

Best bet for me, buy one from someone in the US next year when prices settle, maybe a previously displayed one or something.

 

[Wanderer]

Think i'll go for the offer with studio sunny and probably end up with th RC Tumbler! lol

ran the BBTS shipping through agian and got $30 11 this time....thats more like it.

Can someone direct me to Joe's sight? What online retailer is he representing?

I missed out on ED-209...I passed on the Power Loader...so I was definately going to get this bad boy at least! Now it looks like I MIGHT get the Bat pod and MAYBE the DK fig but I will probably not be buying the tumbler. And I thought the Enterbay figs were expensive

Why would they do that?Strange way of attracting costumers...

Are you going to sell a $450 toy that costs you $200 to import, for $450?

Yeah true,,lets see what Toys2.net does,that is located in Canada.Ill end up buying it from Hong Kong anyway.

thats my site...but I am having it totally redone as the last shopping cart didnt do exactly what I wanted!!

 

[EVILFACE]

Yea, Toys2 should be cheaper, they are on the other figures. But that Canadian shipping may negate it.

Worldwide shipping 130$,not bad...

 

[King Darkness]

Glad these are both so expensive, now I dont have to worry about if I can get these or not.

 

[Ven]

ahah me too..

 

[Voorhees27]

EASY pass for me, I will use the money to add a spoiler to my ride instead!

the biggest problem with the tumbler is the fact that the dimensional weight of a single carton is not the 58lbs I said before but actually 68lbs!! To airfreight these from HK to USA would cost around $150-$200 per unit, and that is with an aggressive discount from Fed Ex. I am waiting on a quote for Ocean Freight meaning it would take about 2-3 weeks to get these once they are released but if the pricing comes in right then we should be able to offer these in the $550-$600 range!!

The batpod we are at $299.95 on it which is less than BBTS and the Batman Figure we are $169.95 which is $10 more than the First Joker and Batman but Hot Toys raised the price on these by around $20HKD...
If I can get inbound shipping on the batpods down a little bit as well by ocean freighting them then you may see a $20-$35 reduction in cost on the Batpod. Which of course would be reflected in EVERYONES's preorder price

Best

This guy??? Where's his site? I am definately looking for a price break on these.

his site is down for the moment. i'm sure once he has his prices all worked out, he'll post a way to pay for the items either in this thread, or in the BST area of the board.

look for it!
