despite being two grand, i think they have sold a load of these.
I talked to a rep. They are done when the rest of what they already made sells.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a good display pedestal or table for this item ( prefer for under $100 ). I went to a few local places today and most of the items, I felt could not support the weight of the item or would not be stable enough. I do not want to spend $100's on a display pedestal but would like a decent table or stand to display this on. Any idea's?
What I would really like to see with the LSF line is something to make these pieces a little more "special" if they insist on having an open edition. Have the bases signed by the creator or designer or something. Throw in a COA...anything.
Honestly, that little something is missing from all LSF's theirs no urgency to order any of these pieces. Sorry, I don't believe for a second that their ending these pieces anytime soon. They may sell out of their initial batch, then they'll just put it on back-order until they get enough orders in like they do with everything else. No need to hurry guys.
But honesty, all they had to do is put an ES of 500-1000 on these and they would have sold....all of them....eventually. Instead, their sitting in their offices wondering why no one is placing orders for 2k pieces which could potentially be a dime a dozen from the collectors perspective. Just ridiculous business logic.
I could have kept orders for all these LSF's and placed one for Galactus and it wouldn't have bothered me one bit. Instead it cost SS 6k+ from me.
You know, Lamborghini recently unvalid it's 50th anniversary Veneno at a cost of 4.5 million each. They went up against Ferrari's new flagship "LaFerrari" and McLaren's new P1....both cars cost over 1 million ...both still available. You know why Lamborghini was able to sell all Veneno's before it even debuted to the public?...."exclusivity". They only made 3! So even with an insane price of 4.5 million they still sold. The car cost maybe a little more to produce than the standard Aventador, so selling them at 4.5 million would be equivalent to Lamborghini selling 30 Aventadors. They made the same amount of money and only had to produce 3 pieces.
My point here is, SS can charge whatever crazy price they want for these things that is equivalent to selling 500 pieces or more. As long as they make them exclusive with a respectable ES they WILL sell out. The collector wins as well and will feel like they have got something really special for the $$$ they dished out. This is what is missing with this line. This is why PCS pieces sell like hot cakes, Jerry understands what the collector is looking for and doesn't abuse it. If some people miss out on a piece or can't afford it at the time of release...hey...tough luck, that's just the way it go's. I'd love to buy a Veneno but I don't always get what I want.

Very well said Chris. SS, just put a number on the base...pretty simple.
That's why my 2K pieces are from Cinemaquette.
Lol. I don't need a piece of paper or a marker on ANY of my statues.
Lol. I don't need a piece of paper or a marker on ANY of my statues. I'm not a fool. Guess what guys. I buy my statues because of the statue!!! Can you believe it. And your highly mistaking if you think they sold a ton of these. There is not many people in the world that have even like statues. Let alone would imagine spending $2000 on one.
I've had friends tell me you couldn't give them one of these "things".
or accuracy
Well I just got off the phone with SS and while he did not give me an exact # of these left he did say as far
as he knows the production on the Wolf is finished. So whatever is left is it. I just placed an order and should
have mine in May. I really didn't want to miss out on this it looks amazing. I will definitely say putting up a
low quantity alert on the newsletter had to move several of these much much faster. I believe if SS just put
on there site that there were 20 of these left it might take 2 weeks to sell them while if they had 20 and didn't
advertise, it would take months or longer.
