Thanks for sharing. I wonder what they're using to determine prices? It's very freaking cool.

I have no idea how they are determining price. They have the movie figures at higher than retail. There aren't any aftermarket prices for those figures yet because no one has them. They have movie Storm Shadow valued at $59.95, but I can still preorder one on Amazon for $19.99.

It has to be a guess, unless they have some connection and they know how many are being made of each.

The seller is hoping ignorance and lack of investigation will get someone to buy a preorder from them, knowing full well that they are pricing FAR above reasonable pricing for an item that hasn't even been released to measure actual consumer interest. I'll tell you how many of each Classified movie figure are being made: LOTS. Seriously, this wave is being launched alongside a big merchandise push for the Snake Eyes film. Storm Shadow, Snake Eyes, and Baroness will be shipping for the next 5-6 months between existing shipments and all were carried over to the next wave with Akiko and Scarlett. I maintain a LOT of the reason for the short supply of Classified at retail is because retailers likely bought heavily into the assortment featuring the main characters from a major theatrical film release.

I finally got Firefly. They had two left and it was limit one. I picked the one with the dull armor. The other one they had looked a little shinier. The date code is 03471.
Here's some pics: For the Viper, it's the same code of 03471. I do not know if this is a variant or not, but I heard somewhere that later ones did not have the arm painted in the skin tone, but I don't know. The arms for Viper are just Duke arms and I heard that some people had some that did not have the skin tone under the gauntlets. Mine is the flesh tone one. If some of you can shift the gauntlet and look under, if any of yours does not have the flesh tone paint, then that would confirm this.

Now I gotta keep an eye out for that firefly and thanks for the code. If anybody else has a viper and they can verify the paint on the wrist, that would be very cool. I'm taking pictures later this week of all the variants I have in hand and their counterparts. Quote:
Has anybody seen Re-deco Duke in the wild?
