SS Classic Spider-Man vs. Tychus Findlay statue

[chezzrok]

Thank you for your thoughts. I have given definite thought to the staying power, or longevity, of each piece in retaining their respective sale prices. My personal feeling is the Classic Spider-Man will likely always have the higher value due to the fan base and much greater rarity of the piece. I suspect I could pick up a Tychus down the road for the going rate, if not lower, but the Spider-Man will remain expensive and much more difficult to track down.

The other member and I were unable to work out a deal, but we both felt my asking price was a fair one.

Which spidey? black and red retro OR blue and red. Hands down if you own a black and red retro, KEEP IT! as much as I adore the Tychuss piece, the spidey, for me is MY holy Grail!
As, for the Tychuss piece it has sold @ 1500 approx. and generally, 800-1000 is about right for the cost of it. However, some individuals who were lucky, including myself paid retail on ebay w/ s$h.That being said I would gladly pay up to 1100 for it.

Hi.

Yes, it is the retro version. I also have the blue and red with the camera, so Spider-Man would still be in my collection. The retro is definitely the coolest looking of the three versions, and is actually the first SS statue I ever bought (April 2007). Despite its high value, I know I would really miss it. I may just end up looking for a Tychus and keeping them both. Retail for the Tycus piece would have been sweet.

that Tychus statue is a Big Fail.Personally,I would be ashamed to display this in my collection.Such an ugly piece.Looks like a Macfarlane action figure...Doesnt even compare to the red & black spidey...

Also, what kind of name is Tychus ?!?!? sound like a part of the vagina.

Don't speak in riddles...what do you really think of the Tychus piece?

 

[SKARY]

Both pieces command high prices and both have a strong following amongst their fans to me based off the sales of both (not BIN's) the value on each is about $1200-$1500. Both are tough to come by only advantage you could have is someone who has a TYchus and does not realize the true value and puts a low BIN i've seen one sell for around $500 from someone who had no clue as to what it was worth whereas it would be much harder to find someone who has a retro spidey make that same mistake.

I have seen the Retro go from 1350-2000+

 

[quadcent]

actually i've seen it sell from $299.99 (retail) onwards up to $2600, niether one actually been true value at this time i believe, but in saying that i would say that the true value of this piece is in the $2000+ range for now, not $1200-$1500.

but that's just my opinion, and i wouldn't sell any of my set for that price. hence the reason these are worth so much, not only did they make only 75-80 on them but most are in collections to never be sold again.

Tychus Findlay looks awesome in pictures, but it looks even better once its standing in front of you. Its one of my favourite pieces

So I'd do the trade if I were you, but my advice is as worthless as this dude posting pictures of his grail Hulk PF. I dont care about Spiderman, but like Starcraft, and the dude dont care about Starcraft, but like Spiderman.
