Hot Toys - MMS136 - The Terminator: 1/6th scale T800 Collectible Figure (T1)

[Wor-Gar]

So the mod here combined two different threads (Teaser and Official) but has left 2x threads marked with the same title today.

yeah just don't eat lunch for a week and you should make up 20$-30$ difference no problem. I just don't like idea of seeing Reese go for $175 - $185 when regular Sarah T2 I see for like 135$ now.

 

[prefused]

No. Honestly, I don't see how a difference of $30 is so distressing to everyone. Hot Toys' prices have been creeping up and up and so this is not unexpected IMO. We addicts will pay. And in the case of this figure, I will pay it three times or so.

my issue isn't the retail price, it's what SSC tacks onto that. this figure isn't an exclusive and there's no incentive to pay more just to get it from SSC. that's retarded.

In all fairness, I think this is not as bad a rip-off as Michael Jackson BAD DX, which was $200.

death is a commodity, unless this was Lt. Traxler no.

I like your thinking!

Tell you what, I'll sell you a T1 Arnie for $300, but you can pay me $50 a month for 6 months! Even better, right?

 

[Wor-Gar]

for all those people who think the price is a lil steep,least SSC offers the flex pay,,,so $64 pm for 3 months isnt so bad as $200 all in one go

Thats damn near PF territory

 

[FLOSI]

Big bad Toy Store has the preorder at $199.......who the heck orders from those rip off artists?

Their price will drop. It always starts at $199 and they just havent adjusted it yet.

That's right, and if you try to quit, I'm gonna mail you a Hot Toys figure and get you re-addicted. We all must suffer through this together.

Well then. I quit... I'll PM you my address.

Great problem solving ability Quiggle.... Maybe I'll just starve my entire family for a week so I can pay for the entire thing.

You're buying it.

 

[a-dev]

The comparison with Barney Ross which only went up for order last week is what made me look twice at the price (from Toys2). This is an excellent figure but its not the most jam-packed with extra value. I hope its just because of extra licensing that had to be obtained for The Terminator or something.

Granted this is better than previous PFs... but still.... takes the whole fun out of it.

You're buying it.

You're not the boss of me

Yeah, 100% better than PF, but still a little sickening
