You're probably right though. 1000 sounds about right maybe 1500

So far, this is the most disappointed I've ever been with a Sideshow PF. I've wanted a DD PF for so long and, to me, this just doesn't capture the character. I just don't like the bull rush pose. He looks more like Rhino than the agile, nimble guy I know and love.

This could've been soooooooooo much bettter.

I also don't like how they sculpted his old costume, painted it red, and then plan on painting the old colors onto this sculpt. They basically said "eff it we'll make 2 statues out of one piece and those suckers will eat it up".
 
People will want it after it comes out...guaranteed.

Happens all the time. Just look at the EX GL PF. Peeps are paying double or more for it now if they passed on it. Not saying that'll happen with DD but we have seen it happen before.

I get why people are upset or disappointed.

Daredevil is an acrobat/gymnast/ninja. But, this is a PF, and how many PF's have poses where the character is doing a back flip? I think they tried something different than the standard one foot up or standing straight legged pose. For some people it was a major backfire. For me...well, I like what we got better than if he was just standing there like Punisher or Deadpool (I love both of those statues, btw...just using those as examples for the pose I am talking about). I think it has a sense of action and still shows off the costume nicely. But, as I say, I totally understand why people don't like it.

I think if this was presented like the Nathan Drake PF I would have liked it more with a realistic backdrop.
 
Honestly though I have learned not to judge too terribly until I see those in hand pics. They can change many minds.
 
You're definitely not alone. Seems many people don't like it. I think the fact that I do like it puts me in the minority.

You're not in the minority. People will express their anger and frustration over and over again as opposed to people who like it. I like it. I'm getting it. I don't have to come in here and defend it to those who can't get over it. It will always be like that. And they will ***** when it comes out and it's freakin awesome and they'll be pissed cause they missed out.

Really? SS disappointments me on a regular basis with their stuff. This is one of the few I actually like.
