Agreed cryan... the eBay prices are just, wow. Makes sense right now though. I wonder if there'll be a large allotment released later on like we saw with Shadow Leo. Here's to hoping!

Man those ebay prices. Hope they lower it down soon. Seems like one person priced it and everyone else decided to go with that price.

Guys, stay patient, I see no reason why they won't make this available after the con like Night Shadow Leo last year.

I couldn't even get a SDCC Night shadow Leo from last year. The prices are brutal online (amazon, ebay), even when a fellow dromer offers it to me. Its always so costly. Probably gonna be the same with this SDCC Shredder too.

Night shadow Leo wasn't worth it, this, on the other hand, is.

It just occurred to me that I could always modify this figure to have elbow joints! I'd be a teensy bit hesitant to take a razor to an expensive exclusive, but I kinda want it now.

Has anyone seen this go up online for cost, yet? I called Playmates' customer service # and the rep I spoke w/had no real idea if the figure was going up on Playmates' website and when it may go up. Any info would be appreciated!!! :]

VERY awesome, a real treasure! Thanks for the pics, they are fantastic. I hope I can score one of these still. Crossing my fingers for it to appear for the SDCC price on amazon or playmates own site.

Looks great! Yeah, keep an eye out on Playmates' site. Hasbro just put up their exclusive Vinyl Scratch, so it's only a matter of time that other companies will do the same.

I'm a little surprised the prices are so high, too. Honestly, I figured the market would be flooded like it was last year. This figure is definitely superior to the Leo, though, but double retail? Yikes.

The Deadpool Corps set (which I was hoping to get) sold out wayyyy super fast

The market was only flooded, because Playmates had a ton of them to sell on Amazon & their own Website after the Con. It's up in the air about the Shredder right now, but if Playmates will do what they did last year prices will drop fast.

He is a fantastic figure and displays really well. I bought a cube that is used to house a signed basketball and put the box, figure, booth schedule, and ticket in it and they look fantastic in there. Also I am hoping that cube protects the signature because I really want to keep that intact. If anyone has any tips on preserving it by all means let me know. I do know that the cube is UV protectant. Other than that I am not sure what to do. Thanks in advance!

While I'm perfectly happy with the Shredder figure I have, I can't help but be a little disappointed they bothered to release it in the first place. This new, SHOW ACCURATE, mold looks pretty good. Though I would have been fine with no knee joints if they had given him elbow joints. The addition of the knees is nice, but not at the cost of the elbows. Which I would use in posing him more than I would knees.

That said I might consider getting this release of the mold if he goes up for sale on Playmates's website. Maybe...I'm not quite sure he's worth what he'll cost. Even compared to what he's going for on Ebay.
