We're already there now. Going back approximately ten years I recall buying 1/4 Star Wars pieces for $350. We'll never see that again for a SW character.
It's the same routine...
We will ***** and complain about inaccuracies and paint app forgetting that we are a minority in this forum. There's still hundreds, if not thousands, of people that will pay the asking price. In the end, we end up buying it anyway (yes, I'm guilty of doing this too!) and the industry continues to take advantage year after year increasing prices beyond the current inflation rates.
As you said, 5-10 years from now, I'll bet we will be looking back at the 1/3 Predator and saying in astonishment, "Remember when it was only $3,000?" LOL!

I bought the DX and I will buy a T-800 endo from T2 along with a BD Arnold in the future and that is it for me. I am going to quit the hobby for good.

Yep, crazy!
Personally I am disappointed with the 900.00 price tag. I was hoping for elite status of 1500.00 per bust. This must be made on the cheap. Pass

How does the wind ever get in here?
They'd sell a lot more if they just combined these four heads into two releases: one with the BD and closed-mouth (for the statue POs) and one with the masked and roaring mouth (for the newcomers).

Yeah no bloody way. The amount of backlash this got its impossible it sold out quicker then the DXS

Has Prime1 ever rigged waitlist stuff before? Like a few hours or a few days later it "magically" converts. Sideshow has done it many times.
At least on Sideshow when a waitlist converts you have a choice to proceed. The way the Prime1 process seems to work is automatic charge upon conversion. Is this correct?

Absolute Bull**t 
There is No way they have sold that many for this price. Either they have cut the ES to 100, or they are halting sales until they figure out what to do about this mess. That or it's just Prime 1 being shady as heck right now and trying to gain a few FOMO purchases. Don't fall for it...

What I really want is a 1/4 version of this closed mouth head to go on the 1/4 version, maybe that could be a cheaper alternative for some of us, and that can definitely use the simple base just like the other 1/4 heads for the same Joker price of $300 -$350 ish. I know that doesn't solve the 1/3 issue but just dropping my wish here while we're all just wishful thinking lol.

They may have been correct. Just got an email from Cosmic Chase, and they have the limited bust for preorder

Basically every Predator item they have ever made is still available, many of them are at retailers also, many with way lower ES numbers and represent a better value for the customer. I don't think this is anything more than devious tactics to try and shift a few via FOMO.
This is interesting.... It's not a huge amount, but apparently voicing complaints can sometimes work.
