Of course it will dip in value.. everything does, in a long enough timeline. The more, newer Hulk statues are out there, the more choices collectors have. Don't invest yourself too much into value, just get it for yourself!
I think the PF will hover at that price...as good as the new one might turn out to be...Andy's sculpt is a classic representation of THE HULK and a must have for any Hulk Fan !!
firstly if you're wanting a Hulk statue that is available right now, then the PF is the way to go. the comiquette most likely won't be available for at least a couple of years and within that time we'll most likely see a few more movies come out that have tie ins with the Hulk which will only drive up the prices even more.
not to mention the actual hulk movies that are slated to be made which will drastically escalate the cost of these.
I have both the green and gray Hulks, but would sell just about any of my other PFs before those, including my retro Spiderman, which I know I would probably never be able to replace. The Hulks are just too impressive in person to ever drop significantly from their current prices. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a short-term drop if a really good Hulk comiquette comes out, but only because it will be had for lower prices off the bat.
Over time, I think the Hulk PF will probably always be the greatest representation of the character, and the prices will reflect that.

Everyone here has given you great advice. IMO the quotes above sum it up.
Just a little add on ... I have both the green and gray. At one time I had two of each as I ended up buying two more with Stan Lee's signature on them, and a pic of him signing them. I recently sold the gray one to a forum member. He bought it because he sold his first gray one for money which he needed at the time.
After he bought it from me, he said that he will never sell it again. It is there to stay in his collection.
The combination of the following: a) Done by Sideshow in 1/4 scale, b) sculpted by Andy, and c) it is classic representation of the hulk: pretty much insures that the value of both of these hulks will hover around the price range you see today or more.
If you are a Marvel collector, and you are a hulk fan, then this is pretty much a piece you will probably consider a must have.
Let us know what you decide!
