New jack nicholson "the shining" figure!!!

[eighthsamurai]

I think he said he'd refund it once they actually shipped.

i mean a full refund, not the partial one for those keeping their order. i hope he's not doing full refunds when others ship - that would suck.

Man,words cant describe how happy i am this figure finally came,didnt expect a Shining figure with a Nicholcon Likeness any time soon.

This figure goes down in my book as MUST have along with the else i collect which is Basically Rocky/Rambo.No second thoughts...really needed this one.

So can someone catch me up on this 37 page thread? Please. I zipped thru and saw that at one time this figure was at $99, then $105, then up and down now to $109 or something.

How limited is this?

What's the "knock-off"?

And what's the best price you guys have found?

Hard to say how limited, no one has released a number and I rarely trust the ones given for these kind of figures. I would guess a few hundred... probably similar numbers to the Nicholson Joker.

The knock-off is a poorly recast and clothed version of the CRM Mr Torrance figure. Upside is it could be had for around $130 (instead of $300+ for the CRM) downside is it looked like crap.

So far $99 shipped was the best price... but it does look like $109 shipped from ABC-Express is the beset right now.

First time I saw this movie was in college. A buddy of mine couldn't believe I never saw it, so he made it a big deal, starting with getting REALLY stoned. Scared me in a way I hadn't been scared from a horror movie before. Still one of my all-time favorite horror movies.

The first time I saw this film was before I hit double digits so you could imagine the "effect" it had on me!

still a few (4) more left at $109.99.

If I average my costs out, I paid $133.36 each, and I'm okay with that. That isn't including the $20 drop Voorhees hooked up, which I'm still a little skeptical that the seller is just willing to discount $20 X (20 or 30 orders) = $400-$600 loss.

Eric even mentioned how shocked he was at ABC's price, he said he just doesn't understand how they got it for so cheap!

still no refund from toys2. sent a couple of cancellation confirmations when requesed last night but the money ain't back in my paypal account. need that to pay for the abc one i got. hope it doesn't take too much longer

You have to give it some time because of Paypal, nothing is instant when it comes to Paypal.

No ^^^^! This one caught me off surprise, we had no idea! We always talked about a good Shining figure, now I think its fair to say, most companies read here at SSF!

This figure really did come out of left field... lets hope these guys decide to make Alex from Clockwork Orange

Yea, that is one CRM figure I'd love to have.

 

[Rock83]

I strongly want a Cuckoo`s Nest Nicholson too,heck...id take any Nicholson figure.

 

[galactiboy]

Yeah, Bickle is easily there best figure... Slade is a lucky bastard to own one

Really?

Slade truly has a good eye for great pieces!

I should have listened to him when he said it wasn't crazy to spend $300 on a figure... If I had, I too would have an Alex and Travis figure

 

[Rock83]

Really?

yeah off course,as long as he stay human

 

[Voorhees27]

Yup. The only thing we can be certain about (Value) is the short printed small time company made stuff.

Thanks guys! I like to think so. But to be honest, I really had to talk myself into a $300+ CRM Jack Torrance way back in '02. I had seen pics of the first Alex by CRM and all I had was a Dr. No Bond at the time and wasn't real sure if I really wanted to start collecting 1/6 dolls. But I was a huge Kubrick fan, so I sucked it up and dropped the $300 on him. The 2nd Alex was a no brainer, I bought him as soon as he released. Travis...err, Henry Krinkle almost got away from me. I haven't seen him for sale once since I bought him off ebay in 2004. I hafta say he's the BEST of the CRM lot. The sculpt is phenomenal. And the fact that you get two shirts, two jackets, AND a 1/1 "We ARE the people!" pin is just icing on the cake. The only way this figure could be better would be if he came with a younger Deniro head--and maybe those cool sliding forearm gun holsters.

 

[EVILFACE]

$300 would have been very hard to drop on a figure back in 02, hell that is way to much now.

theres a crm blade runner on ebay.
