Here's my comment on the Sideshow site:
I’m in and can’t wait to get this one in hand. But I have to agree on the sculpt. The Han Solo PF was disappointing. The prototype photo on the box was great and I sure would have loved to own one of those, but the mass produced product really missed the mark. To tell you the truth, when I took it out of the box I was really disappointed. I hope this one delivers.

Personally, Im limiting myself to EPIV-VI PFs only (it helps my wallet
) - well in the Star Wars line at leastI feel like an EpI Obiwan is far more likely in the near future (to go with Maul).

If you thought those 12" were high-priced, just wait till you see this price tag. I'm guessing around $349

I'm gonna guess $275... seems to be what the human style figures go for. While the license is more expensive, I don't think the outfit is vastly more complicated than the recent Wayne PF.

I think you're forgetting jacket and hat (way more complicated than any Star Wars PF - especially if done with leather and a real fabric hat). Along with the licensing cost its going to make this baby expensive...
EDIT - sorry that wasn't clear --- you can only compare this to SW since the licensing costs will be similar

I thought the exclusive was a 1:4 scale golden idol. Seems like it was referenced in a recent interview or podcast, etc.

Cinemaquette didn't give Captain Jack his trademark hat, right? Maybe Sideshow will make the same mistake with Indy.

I didn't realize that Anakin was $300... so I guess he could be that much. But again, Wayne has a leather Jacket and googles, so I think there are some similarities there in terms of complexity.
I'm still gonna guess $275, but its okay since I'm not getting him anyway

Never saw that video before... does make it look like an Idol will at least be included.
I wonder if the larger size will allow for a removable hat?

I agree with those who say around the $350 range. I figure Sideshow knows it has a hit on it's hands and is going to charge accordingly.

Will there be an exclusive?

I am also going to guess around $325-350. Bot not because Sideshow just thinks they can get away with it--I think that the licensing costs, quality of the figure and materials used, R&D, etc. will all work together to justify the price.

Absolutely
Ok, so Ill ask the next obvious question...
Do the Indy PF's go up in value on the secondary market (a la MARVEL) or are they going to fare closer to STAR WARS PFs?
Somebody had to ask it
I'd agree with that. Its dealing with LFL so ya know that will help the cost be high.
