Hot Toys DX Bespin Luke Skywalker

[Khev]

I've got about $55 in reward points at Sideshow. I plan on applying them to the shipping cost of the new DX Luke.

Fixed...

If this guy is $300 I'm just going to keep the Sideshow figure.

Probably.

You can keep him for the stunt double.

Star Wars fans will never cease to surprise people as to how deep their fandom goes.
A great example is that my 70 year old grandmother, that has been a huge SW fan since she saw the movie in theatres on opening day 1977...will be pre-ordering this figure. And she said price will be no issue.

That is seriously awesome...

My Grandma is a right-wing nut who likens the Force to witchcraft.

Religious nuts are actually a form of left wing, but the left is incapable of believing their ideas are just as bat____ crazy as Pat Robertson, so the charade will continue until further notice.

I thought I'd want the antenna but the more I think about it I figure I'll never use it. I definitely don't want to pay a bunch extra because it's included.

 

[abake]

I've no use for the antenna, I just want the figure.

she is right! the Force is derived from Zen Buddhism and the Occult

I've got to get me one these grandmothers, I say.....

Spider-Man comes with a giant piece of a building and is practically a steal at $150. So I'm guessing the pieces like this don't add a lot of cost... but this is still likely to be one pricey f'n figure.

I was thinking the exact same thing!

 

[LOPIE]

Indiana Jones DX, Batman and Joker are $240-$260 so I guess DX Luke is going to be $300.

Which would be about $245 with my reward points.

I hope you're right as far as Luke is concerned. Definitely don't need a reason to add extra cost to this one.

Nice, I used all my point on Commander Gree.

I really would like to have the beat up Luke and just sell the other one. It might help me off set the cost on this one. If Hot Toys keeps making these I'm out of the collecting business, it would be to rich for my blood.

Its Star Was the name says it all; they will try to squeeze every red penny out of us. LOL I didn’t mind SS stuff when it was $55 a figure and I hand to do some customizing, but at these prices these figures better be flawless.

$ 300 is too muc, Joker high price appears to be a result of licensing issues because for a dx the coat is the only thing I see extra. All the other acessories are with in the normal $ 160 range figure.

Sorry there is no way DC license cost is greater then SW license. SW license is really a license to print money.

 

[LOPIE]

If this thing is lower then $300 I'd be very surprised.

 

[Khonsu70]

Well, this figure is cool, but it ain't $300 cool. If that's the price tag, it's a deal-breaker for me. I'll sit back and watch as HT prices people out of collecting and the hobby implodes. It's happened in the past and at times when the global economy was not in such precarious condition...

 

[galactiboy]

I feel pretty confident he won't be $300 and honestly don't think he'll surpass the Joker's price.
