1/6 Luke Skywalker: Red Five X-Wing Pilot Sixth Scale Figure

[Darthrazz]

I'm thinking the same thing man, after like the Delorean and BD Robo. I may have to cash in my chips and leave this casino just when I was coming back to collecting 1/6th figures, nope it was a good run.

If I sold my current figures, my detolfs, and cancelled my current pre-orders, I can pay for a Canon 5D MKIII and a damn good Lens as well. That's nuts !! I think I might go that route...

Ordered this to add to my Sideshow STAR WARS collection.
Had over $100 in rewards points...so an easy choice.
The Hot Toys Stormtroopers were an easy pass.

Head over the the facebook announcement and see if we can pick up some more steam as my post seems to be getting some attention at least. Social media is always a place they don't want people talking negatively about anything. Trust me, I deal with social media control and customer service for my job and damage control can change a companies direction.

As long as they don't connect it to my SS account and ship me a bunch of defective figures instead of my pre orders

If its your profession and you can make money off of it maybe thats the way to go, I would prob. put it towards a PS4, but like I said i will stick with my pre orders and skip the SW line all together HT's + SS

What the hell??? 240???

This was my reaction exactly.

 

[Rambler]

Hey Sideshow, $240? Why not just say it cost a jillion bajillion dollars!

240$???
Hey, I'm taking the ck1 route here, I'll cancel and wait for the HT version!

at these two posts. Rep left.

I'll say it again, I have a hard time believing the price starts with a "2" and not a "1"

And dammit I need to spread some rep around more before I can get you again Pix.

$140.00 sounds way better, but I think you could of put that many RP towards something bigger maybe? I can't believe he comes with so little its like DOFP Wolverine, maybe Luke's outfit is where the value is at? Also it doesn't say the likeness of Mark Hamil do they normally do that?

All figures in general haven't really been selling it seems just look at all the discounts this year, and spooktacular giveaways, maybe wait a year and this figure will go down in price too.

Was going to buy it, and I had my cursor over the buy now button and then I looked at the price...

...no way...

I was pretty interested in this figure, thought it may be the one Luke I end up owning.

Definitely changed my stance on that after today, not even gonna consider the figure now lol

A conversation at some point in the future...

Old Timer: "I still remember when Hot Toys had the highest prices in the hobby"
Newb: "No way! When was that, the 90's?"
Old Timer: "Last year."

Freedom of speech is the freedom to speak out in the face of the government, not on a public site against a company or private citizen.

 

[Darthrazz]

Does this mean that the Tie Fighter Pilot will be over $200 as well?

I actually meant I couldn't figure out how to post it (on my phone). They didn't take it down or anything.
