I just got my DID shipment which came out to around 30 bucks a figure including shipping (half off original prices). It is nicer than the pics and in person it is surprisingly good. It is true the DID sculpt of strider is terrible, but it is the worst of the six DID made. The costumes and accessories are fantastic and just for that it was worth the money. I am not thrilled with the strider figure by sideshow either, now should I get two to swap bodies with the DID costume or should I wait for another aragorn to be made? Will there be 4 strider/aragorn figures made down the line? I hate repeats. Then again, I realize it isn't a tragedy that the sideshow sculpt is a little off, there will probably be others of the same character down the line.
