Star Wars: Frames

[Jay1138]

The Frames set is a cool idea and it's great that they're signing by Lucas. However they are $4,000+ too expensive. So I will never own them.

 

[Rodders]

I really like these. They're beautifully presented. But yes, the price will always be an issue for me.

 

[Darth Waller]

I saw one of these at CV. It's big and beautiful (that's what she said), but way overpriced. George should've done a $300 version for the fans.

Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen any coffee table books worth five thousand dollars.

Yeah, what is this?

I don't understand... This just seems stupid...

For this kind of money you can get a lot of superb prop-replicas and studio scales. And you may even consider small original props from SW.

 

[Rodders]

I suspect that a lot of the prices are dictated by Lucasfilms Licence fees rather than any greed on the company's part.

Good point. Physical cost would be two fifth's of bugger-all (in other words, not much

A new video about Frames is out. It's interesting, and if the cost was under $500 I'm sure a lot of people would consider it. As it is, I honestly have no idea how they think they're going to sell more than a handful.

From the video, it seems that this project was sort of Lucas's baby.

A baby that was sick before getting born and who will die soon, if not treated (with reduced prices)...

The pause button on my Bluray player is already paid for.

If it would have cost even $ 999 I'm sure many people would have bought it!

After seeing the vid I have the feeling they thought every fan would want one of these sets after seeing the vid... Well I want them!














For less than $1500,-

 

[IronFingaz]

Well, they have cut the price and edition size to $3000 and #500. So they're moving in the right direction Odd they don't have flex-pay for it, though

 

[jkno]

These will fly off the shelves...


in a few decades LOL

Star Wars Frames: anyone game enough to part with your money?

Gotta admit, I think these are pretty damn amazing... but $3K? Hard to justify.

Has anyone seen them in the flesh? What's you impressions?

I don't think the people who can justify the set for that amount of money are on this forum

 

[Kamandi]

With such a small run it's hard to imagine this recovering it's development costs. It's a break even at best.

I just spoke to Sideshow and they only have a few copies left out of the 500 they received. Star Wars Shop is sold out. It looks like the 1138 have sold! I didn't think these would have gone, but then again, each to his own. I can't fathom spending $5K on a bronze statue and Sideshow keep pumping them out.
