its already starting to get that way for me with the current prices...the more 1/6 I see and then the prices just keep going up, I'll be throwing in the towel real soon here.

I think this is one of the best headsculpts HT has ever put out.

 

[griffclinton]

So is this only going to be available if you attend the event? Or will it be available for pre-order?

I was intending on passing this up but I've decided to sell the Berserker to get this instead..

 

[Cdiesel09]

How much is the figure gonna cost?

 

[Agentofchaos]

SDCC pictures showed it to be listed at $225 I believe...

 

[Cdiesel09]

^^Ok thanks. Thats a bit high for what it comes with. I guess because its an exclusive.

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

Well, it comes with a new body, best paint apps we've seen, beautiful HS, most awesome and unique P2 trophy skull....


I agree though, too much.

GREAT----Great-----Another figure that I can't make to the convention that's it's sold at, and after all the flippers have bought them up, they throw them on EBay for $400 to $500 bucks.

My only hope is Sideshow and they can't tell me spit on whether they're going to have it for sale or not.

It's getting to the point that why should I bother anymore. It's the most stupidest idea anyone has ever had, sell something that only a few hundred tops can get, let them buy as many as they can, And watch them walk away knowing that they're planning on throwing them on the secondary market (EBay) before they even get home.

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

It's not a stupid idea, it's a great money-making idea..

 

[Dollmanron]

It's not a stupid idea, it's a great money-making idea..

For the secondary market it is, but how does that help dozens or hundreds of other Hot Toys Predator fan, it help them jack squat.

 

[ExMem-LarjaThwei]

Hot Toys makes expensive exclusive.
People buy expensive exclusive.
Hot Toys makes much money.
Hot Toys dances around with their money.
Hot Toys laughs at us fans.
We fans cry.

It is not Hot Toys' job to make sure that everyone can buy their figures. As long as they can sell them quickly and make money and do it over and over again they will. They have had no problems in selling out of exclusives before so they are obviously doing something right. I think this falls under supply and demand. They have a high demand for Predators, especially with the word exclusive before the name, and a low supply. That means they can charge out the ass. Good business for them, _____y people like you. that's what it always equals.
