Eh should support the person who support Henry to support lower price also ma.

I bet to differ. Electronic items are cheaper in Malaysia compared to Singapore. I dont know where you've been shopping, but an ala carte iPhone costs definitely costs more than in Malaysia. I've never heard of people coming to Singapore to buy electronic items.

As for figures, I must say that from experience, generally hot toys are more expensive compared to Malaysia, with the exception of one shop in CSC that sells about RM50 lower than Malaysian PO prices. Historically, AC's prices have also been more or less on par with XL's prices.

But when you have a figure that's >RM150 more expensive in Malaysia, it really makes you start to wonder if someone's starting to make suckers out of the local Malaysian collectors and/or just plain greedy.

Anyway, people who buy hot toys are smart enough to look elsewhere for cheaper prices if they want to I suppose. If some companies want to play the premium game and not a volume game, well, let's see in the long run.

^take AC for example. is this a shop that will run away with your money? they are also a company that has multiple branches and want to make a living. furthermore, i think overhead costs in singapore should be higher than in malaysia. but still they are RM100+ cheaper in prices compared to malaysia. of course, you could argue that theirs in prepaid instead of preorder, but even the shop where i PO'd (way cheaper than AC's price) is a physical shop and not some online seller.

what i want to say is, earning money is fine. but scalping your customers? hell no.

nvm la ask hannah tan sponsor abit

but dont forget, there are logistics concerns if you buy from sg and want to bring back to malaysia.

man, i'm so glad i stayed out of the whole hot toys ironman hype. this reissue would have seriously pissed me off.

dont think there will be reissues of other licenses. i mean, just take a look at all the ironman releases by HT. it's obvious this line is their cash cow, and they're milking it to the max.

As a collector, wouldnt you be pissed if you spent hundreds on a figure, only to know later on that there's an IMPROVED version to be released later?

I mean, it's not like you can exchange the one you have for the IMPROVED version right? If it's a few bucks, yeah sure I'll just throw the one I have now and buy again. But when HTs are this expensive, sure you'd be pissed.

And I'm talking as a collector, not a scalper.

Haha I dont have MK1, and I will not likely get the new one either.

It's just that I can see the rationale why some people will be pissed at the reissue.

Anyway, I'm so like Myvii, if cannot have wont die. That's why I just buy what I like.

i am not liking that crimson guard helmet.. :/

i kinda prefer the prototype look too. anyone who's seen it IRL (especially during the SGTCC) will know how awesome it looked.

Ordered this due to a 55% discount, and right after I saw the product as discontinued. Perhaps I took the last one?

all the clone commanders are worth collecting cause each have their custom armor designs. very nice if displayed.

You can get the bags if you order from Action City in Singapore. I got the Thor bag from them.

Not to mention that Action City Singapore is Prepaid orders only. Meaning you gotta pay in full 1 year before you get the figs.
