Very upset that after the amazing head sculpt there is not much there for $300. Feels so bare bones!! I need to sell myself the fact that I am buying a "art piece"! This Peter Weller head sculpt is $300 everything else on this figure is FREE!!!

Just paid the £50 deposit on this at ToysHQ, now awaiting the final price to go live. If it's shockingly expensive then I will sadly have to cancel, by "shockingly" I mean incredibly inflated from the US dollar price. Does anyone know why they charge £9.99 shipping in ADVANCE? that seems a bit dodgy to me.

This set is just SOOO unbelievable. I had to have a look at it again.
I'm just asking myself how much of both sculpts details will be lost, since all sculpts from recent times tend to get waxy and kinda shiny and looses details.
Here's hope that there're so many of'em in it, that we won't loose that much.
With that said: instant buy...really.
When PO is up on Eisselmann's and my seller I will order it and start saving, cause besides of that, next year I'll get TFC's 3rd Party Devastator approach and MMC's version of Predaking.
Those are holy grails too and...then...I could tend to be finished with my collection...

That's why I had the blood and typography covering it.

So where is the YouTube video of this figure displayed at secret base?

Man oh man this set is sick! Rob Bottin would be proud. If HT would just remake the marines, constantly requested for years, maybe John McClane, then my collecting life would be complete.

The other Robocop cost roughly that amount, so they knew people would pay it for Robocop and charged that much again. I'm sure the 2-pack release also factored into that decision. Folks will say "man, $300 is kind of pricey," then immediately think to themselves "but only $140 more for Murphy! Steal! Gonna buy!"

Yes their intent would be to sell more of the double pack than stand alone. That's where the margin is for them...
