QUOTE(mywii @ May 27 2011, 07:49 AM) I dont know man. There are other shops selling like 30-50 cheaper but of course those shop can close immediately like what happen to a shop in Subang Square. And probably they dont have many staff and usually run by the owner only. I just felt that HT this time might have data from their survey and observation that the cry for CR is so huge that they milk it kaw kaw. Of course the likeness is there up to the big D  Mostly becasue of the forced donation.....to C & D Reeve foundation.. However Ht should be clear on how much goes to the foundation per figure and a total of the donation made (after PO of retail release), just to be transparent, and we get an idea of the number of figures that HT makes .... adds to their public relation profile.

^ unfortunately Supes is not a good example for figure pricing, many people will buy it regardless of the price. Many will probably buy less (multiples) of it because of the high cost.... With the lines, it will probably be a sell out... long wait after initial HK release as in Mk. 6.
Perhaps Christopher Reeve deserve an Icon figure (pre-accident)... non-Supes related.

^Vote with your money... don't buy...
I'd buy it though... because of the Actor, not because the DC character, Same reason that I would not buy a Keaton Bats or Jack Nic's Joker

That's a Fact!! I'd say the price put-off people sitting on the fence.. not a priority, money better goes else-where. |

We're forced to do charity  Which is why HT should be clear cut... in reporting how many sold and how much goes to the charity per figure ... otherwise "tapuk-tapuk telan sendiri" |

QUOTE(madmoz @ May 27 2011, 01:18 PM) but if you guys are already into collecting hottoys, an extra hundred ringgit won't put much of a dent into your pockets wor... as for imports, don't the new safety regulations only apply for children's toys? and not scale models/figurines? If anything, with the import duty abolishment makes it even cheaper to source for toys? Our ringgit has also been appreciating right? Even cheaper to do business then? Yes... HT are above for 15 y.o... and the with 5% gone, but 10% sales tax remains... it should be cheaper,... but toy shops are not exclusively HT/Medi/EB... so less one, more on others, one's cost savings covers another. |
