| | Cobra Viper Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: NC Posts: 313 | 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.

| | Goon... uhm Gun for hire. Join Date: Jun 2008 Location: :Location: Location. Posts: 207 | 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.
