Seeing this price, I'm hoping that these are announced before others ship so I can weigh out which ones are more worthwhile to me cuz anything I'd want to see will be as intricate or more than this piece.

This gets filed in with the Darkness PF as something I find irresistably gorgeous and will have to admire from afar.

It's interesting comparing fan response to the prices of both the Darkness PF and the Ani/Obi diorama. Very different reactions!!
More people will now want the Darkness because they are charging less than expected, and less people now want the diorama because they are charging more than expected.

2000 pcs??? They're on crack.

Are you on the square?
I'm sure I wasn't the only one who looked like Yoda in Tom's signature after seeing the price on this piece.

Hahahaha... No. And I just looked like that again when I read the edition size of 2000.
Well, at least we know the secondary market should have these for less than $280 at some point.

I can totally live with this price point, I've decided.
For one thing, there won't be THAT many dioramas every year.
For another, there will be cheaper ones.
For yet another, this will obviously be the grail of the line.
For yet yet another, the Marvel vs. pieces cost more than this, and their value has just risen and risen. (The Wolvie vs. Sabretooth was $250, for example, and it was about the same size [13.5"], with a much smaller base.)
And finally, I do hope the ES is lower than 1000, at least for the exclusive, if there is one.
EDIT: See, this is what happens when you type for a long time. ES 2000... that's pushing it. And the size is a bit smaller than Dusty said! Oh well. I'm in it.

but if a PF had a es of 2000, that would considered high (only boba & vader etc)
I'm just blown away by the money of it, at that price, if it sells out you're talking $560,000 on one piece, I sure hope there isnt' a high GP for their items, otherwise I'm really gonna try to get a job there lol.
The exclusive will probably be one of those little floating lava droids.

It is for something like this at that price point, imho. These will not hold any value on the secondary market at $280 with an ES of 2000. In fact, they'll likely depreciate some.

There probably won't be an exclusive, the Frodo v Gollum doesn't have one.

for a $125-150, no it's not high but for a $280 piece then IMO it's a high es

From a marketing perspective, this piece desperately needs a cool exclusive to keep people buying direct from Sideshow instead of heading to retailers to try to get a lower price.
