I like their dynamic poses, and if they were statues, I would be all over them. I don't know how they would hold up in value over time, I imagine they will go up, but I'm not good at predicting. I saw the han solo from afar (on top of the shelf high up) and he looked a little plastic. There was a photo on the board with star wars attakus statues next to the koto ones, and I have to say, it made the attakus statues look fantastic. Maul has a great pose and is my favorite of the kobo, but I didn't buy it because it looks plastic to me. For me, I rather get nice statues for a few hundred than a 100 dollar plastic one. But, who knows where it will be headed. I don't know why they don't make statues because their sculptors are top notch.
