If most collectors feel as at least half of us do here, then I'm optimistic at picking this up at a reasonable price later.
I hope so. I want it for the clothing and accessories, which do seem to be good.
Personally I decided to go for it. It looks pretty good to me, and I am sure will be great in hand. A few people here seem quick to write off the head sculpt without having actually seen it yet...
Nobody mentioned drastic differences (either capital or italic). Just look at the Triwizard Harry thread. So many pictures look quite a lot different (big nose, not big nose, chubby, not chubby). I doubt I am getting that particular figure, but I would be interested to see it in person. And this seems to happen a lot. If you have never noticed a difference between pictures and in person then that's great, it means you have been lucky, selective or happy either way, so more power to you my friend.
To me Snape looks good. It could be better, for sure, but most sculpts could be (except maybe BD Robocop, that thing is so well sculpted and painted). And I am pretty sure in hand Snape will be even better. Medicom's head does look good (never seen it in person) but not for twice the price it's now going for.
With the sculpt, costume, accessories and the current retail price I think Snape is worth picking up, and that's what the original question was. Just my opinion as answer to it, not looking to disagree or argue.
