I was like, hmm-yeah I guess I'll pay ten bucks a piece for them. Then I saw this. Not happening at that price

I kinda wanted some Night Vipers but not for that price. Hopefully a Modern Era one comes out.

They are so late to the party with these that it's laughable. A year and a half ago, these would have sold out in a day! Now they want premium $ for these glorified repaints of obsolete figs.? Sure thing

Thanks for the info...but I'm passing on these...they just priced these right out "must get" status. I was really looking forward to getting Munitia, Outback, and Airtight...oh well.

The only one I wanted was Munitia, no way I'm paying $40.99 plus shipping for one figure I want and a bad Colton Repaint and a Python Copperhead.

I'll probably pick up two sets of the figures. Price really isn't bad considering there are only 2,000 made, and it's the only way to finish the DTC collection. Comes out to a little less than $15 a figure, which is less than half as much many are paying for "variants" , such as black headed Destro, in the 25th line that are made in way more significant numbers. It really depends where you're coming from. If all you collect are the 25th, you'd really have no reason to get these (unless you thought they were too cool to pass up.) So, although many are knocking them, the price point is not bad at all considering the small run.

That's what I'm saying. I'm half thinking of grabbing the Airtight/Officer set

Considering the price of 25th figures these days... $14.50 per figure doesn't seem that bad to me.

Having to buy sets, and more specifically having to buy that set of 3 when Python Copperhead was un-necessary in the first place, is kinda irritating.

I still suspect these will sell fairly well though.

given they are selling new-sculpt era figures for $2-3 dollars right now i think these are going to be a hard sell in a post-25th anniversary world... i assume on top of the price you have to pay the $40 to join the club, right?
