Wolverine Legendary scale figure??!!!

[CollectorNC]

If they make a 1:2 Indy, I may not care about price or ES. lol

 

[hunnipot85]

So with open ES there is no number for each, eh. So that kind takes away from the collectibility aspect a tad....

Yeah, call me a greedy collector or not in it for the fun, but I like my stuff to be limited, especially if I am spending big $$$

Exactly at 2K. That's a nice downpayment on a new car!

Have to give great credit to Sideshow for allowing a collector pay this off over 10 months. Bravo.

They probably figured they would increase their orders by doing so. It's more of a benefit to Sideshow insuring more orders. Hope not too many collectors go into bankruptcy during their 10 months.

Oh it certainly widens the net for possible collectors no doubt.

the flexpay cost a month equals out to less than the cost of 1 HT a month

I don't buy 1 HT a month.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

I don't buy 1 HT a month.

I don't either, but that's the breakdown per month

 

[CollectorNC]

Hence why I can't afford it.

Nah, had no idea that you had sold some of your BD collection. I'm guess it's time to let go of a few things. I guess we all have to streamline our collection at some point in time, or risk going from a collector to a out of control hoarder...(no pun intented)

A hoarder is he, who cannot let go of his/her possessions.
Im guessing you already know I am not one.

So Iron if there was a limited production of this then you would buy one?

maybe if i ever move to a larger house I will consider getting a 1/2 scale piece. you need to have a giant house or be single to have space for pieces like these. Unless your wife is cool with it sitting in HER living room...haha. Still, purchasing a bunch of these at 2k a piece is A LOT of money. i still love 1/4 scale the most.

Yes absolutely

However I could see some of you selling many of your little 1/6-1/4 or all of them to buy a few of these instead. I guess its just a matter of taste after all...

 

[hunnipot85]

averone do you also collect 1/6 or no?

Yeah, my wife would kill me. The only 1:2 I would risk my life to get would be Indy. But even still, I do like the 1:4 scale and that is what got me interested in collecting to begin with. I am just curious as to how many of these SSC will sale. Looking at some collections, looks like a lot of members have deep pockets.

 

[averone]

Looks great to me....people nitpicking...nothin new I guess

Funny, how its all the HT guys! Yet .... again!
You know, nothing wrong with having like a 100 cool HT and one big 1:2 so you can arrange your HT around him!

I've been selling off some of my stuff already, but I used the $ for Doom ex & Hulk PFs, known pieces with a history of high quality. The next purchase for me 2k or above will be another motorcycle (might even happen today) which I will enjoy infinitely more than a 1:2 scale interpretation of a character sitting in one place. The only character I would consider in this scale is Vader, but it would have to be a perfect film representation and we all know SS is not capable of that.

 

[averone]

averone do you also collect 1/6 or no?

I collect a select few from BD
The character I still get are,

IM
Cap
Thanos
A very few Hulks


However I am now collection HT more and more as they have the best IM around

 

[Patriot666]

I think 1:4 scale is a great size. Personally I the 1:3 scale is ideal, but I can't really afford the CM stuff, that's if I could even find it! To me the 1:2 scale is big and cool, but past that 1:3 scale, I think it's worth jumping into 1:1. After all...a half scale figure will take up just as much space as a life size figure as far as floor space...and possibly wall space, once you set up your half scale figure on a table. So for me 1:4 and 1:1 win.

Yes I totally get it.
I know your young and have a good life. You did the right thing!

I have had the bikes, the cars and now I have the wife and family so to me this is something totally different.
We are both very lucky. I do think about getting a new bike from time to time. But then Im happy with the one I got. Its all about what you enjoy at the end.
The bike and the statue will both depreciate, its just the way it is.
I cant look at these as investments. To make money on them is something you do if you need the money. Im fortunate I guess.
If I sell with a loss then I sell with a loss and recoup somewhere else.
