I can't believe we've been so conditioned to the point where we have no problem shelling out $220 plus shipping for a doll like this from an awful movie. The likeness sucks (the first Harley is better), she comes with little dinky accessories and the outfit is about as simple as it gets. Not long ago, this look and head could have been included as an extra in a DX line for $170 (see DX 01 Joker). Better yet, Princess Leia was put up last year and was "only" $204. Hell, remember when the regular Avengers and TDKR Catwoman were $190?
$220 right out of the gate is ridiculous for a barebones figure. Kinda insulting. It's right up there with Sideshow thinking they can get $250 for their awful Beetlejuice. They better hope people aren't being more strict with their purchases or they're going to be choking on a lot of these toys in the near future.
I wish some high end collectible company would come onto the scene and loosen Sideshow and Hot Toys' stranglehold on the market. Some competitor needs to put them in their place.
