the same as BABY DOLL

One day maybe Sideshow will explain us why they are so asking 20 bucks more than $169.99 Baby Doll cost........

You also have to take into account the current exchange rate at the time the distribution deal was made; it could cause a lot of difference in price from one day to the next.

PASS, let me know when they do a Mace Windu, the BMF with the purple lightsaber.

Mace Windu wasn't a b@d@ss. Sam Jackson is but that character was one of his worst.

Yes you are right,
since August 2011. month on which Hot Toys closed the preorders of Baby Doll,
the USD against the YEN rose about 5%.

So on top of the 20 Dollars more they ask for Nick Fury,
SIDESHOW make another 5%.

Look here
BABY DOLL:

NICK FURY:
https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10177394

Nick Fury is in the same price range of Baby Doll (19,800 yen)

Why Sideshow has to scalp us of another 20 bucks??

Show SS how you don't like it by NOT getting Fury.

I like Fury and other HT Figures but I have NEVER bought a single piece from SS.

From Asia you get better price and the figure months before...

 

[mikericm]

If you never buy from SS, then why are you compalining about their prices?

 

[The Mike]

It's getting really difficult not to order this.

Can´t I?
Is it forbidden to complain??

SS is just a leech on someone else´s products...

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

All 8th Wonder does is troll...just ignore him, he has no idea what he's talking about

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

yeah, im gonna try to figure that out now...never had to do it before

You're welcome to complain. You also welcome to be a total tool. Whats the purpose in complaining for absolutely no reason? What are you getting out of doing nothing but complaining?

 

[IXI Nick IXI]

they should put an "ignore" link right under his name

 

[EXOTICLEX]

The neck and head shape have some huge problems...

I agree...his head is huge in that store pic....my god....what were they thinking...

This is a Sideshow Freaks board... why are you even here?...

Sideshow freaks board doesn´t means you you can´t complain about the fact they are lately "pumping" too much their prices.

Everyone has the right to make a profit,
but when you push it too much it´s called speculation.
