The announcement from PCS for Mikey showed up today. He isn't available from Sideshow's site yet, but should be in a day or so. Unfortunately they increased the price from $500 to $550. That may be due to the size/height, but I'd feel a lot better paying more if they had some actual product out before upping the price tag.

I've been in the statue game since around 2010. The prices have climbed steadily since then. It's in part because the market has expanded, but also because the workmanship has improved. But I think the production costs have also increased significantly. Prime 1, which I believe ships directly from Asia, has already said that they've been getting hammered on shipping/taxes. It used to be that a top-tier Sideshow Premium Format figure was generally $300-$400. Now it's more like $500-$700, and some are even more than that. The larger high-end stuff is all well over a grade anymore.

I want all of them. I have two sets of turtle statues and I love them. I just wish I could see a true purchase review before I spend the money they are asking

For what it's worth, I'm happy with all of the PCS pieces I have (He-Man, Skeleton, Battlecat, Conan). |

Happy with how Mikey is looking. I haven't pulled the trigger on Don or Mike yet but have feeling once Raph gets here Ill be jumping in. Excited for these toon statues but just want to make sure they are what I'm hoping for before plopping down all that cash.
EDIT: UGH...Mikey is live and they raised the price from the previous two = $550 vs $500 Last edited by OA; 08-29-2019 at 03:28 PM. |

But i have to Ask wath the **** is mike doing with the pizza box??i did think this statues was based on the first fight In tecnodrome and mike did not have a pizza box whene they did fight there. |

Just got my processing notice for Raphael. Guessing I'll have the statue in-hand within the next 7-10 days.
