Yeah. . .WTF Sideshow? I hope people just refuse to pay it. Reinforcing Sideshow's ridiculous mark-ups has led to a 100% increase in their "basic" figure price just over the past few years. I know this falls into line with some of their previous "environments" (like that stupid $200 Solo in Carbonite), but this is an absurd price, IMO.

Think of the greater good, man! You wacky Star Wars collectors are the cause of all of this!
Actually, I'm a casual Star Wars fan myself, and will definitely be down for a Boba Fett when one is announced. |

I got the Hot Toys or Medicom Fett that SS imported. That dude was $150 so I will more than likely pass on a U.S version of Fett

Regarding Medi-Boba, The Medicom figures are slightly smaller than most other 1/6 toys, which is a turn-off to some, myself included. Otherwise, I would have picked up that version of Fett a while back. I'm sure that the Sideshow version won't have much over the Medicom version though, except in size. The only Medicom figure I currently have is Spidey, and I can treat him like a teenager, so it doesn't matter. |

As much as I dig my Sideshow Snake Eyes, that enviro setting and timber is way to damn expensive for my. I mean come on Sideshow! Here's a thought...blow me! That is crazy too high! I can build a dio that looks better to scale than this.
Hell, for $120, timber should be made out of actual timber wolf fur pelt and have a meal of endangered baby seals! PASS big time on my part! Doc has SPOKEN!

I was buying tons of Sideshow before they doubled the price of their Star Wars figures. Interesting that they don't sell out the way the used to. I must not be alone in leaving Sideshow in the dust.
