    This is such awful PR by them. "From now on, expect any figure we release under $150 to be a total piece of shit."

    Is ShowZ gonna honor the $123.99 price for those who preordered it at that price (paid in full and preorder deposit). I know they honored XTB Gravestone's lower price for those who preordered early.

    You’d want to take the flight stand out of the $125 version. People really can’t seem to grasp how expensive those things are...

    Agreed. That "premium version" wording is meaningless in XTB's context. All it's doing is creating confusion among potential buyers.

    Well yeah, haha.

    But the end result I think came out alright IIRC (The + version that's up on at least BBTS, I wanna say V4?)?

    I feel filthy and I'm sorry to anyone with good taste in toys that has to hear this, but...

    I really, REALLY want a reissue of MM-5 Sonic.

    Get a second one from XTB for around $10 and use it as a frisbee

    Considering that it’s one piece? Yeah actually. Two things drastically increase the price of figures, single large pieces, and multiple small ones. Both increase the size of the mold overall, adding to the price.

    I see that TCP and A3U still list it at $129.99 (before shipping and taxes).
    Do we know if Baba will honor their current $129.99 price?

    I’ve almost never heard of baba honoring a price, no matter how small the difference. Tho that’s purely based on forum talk. Anyone with personal experience with baba?

    Indeed. If there is only ONE version, there is NO premium ‘version’.

    This kind of logic does not belong here. It's too logical. You are only allowed to praise Keith to the skies.

    FWIW, I just had a chat with Brandon at TCP and he told me XTB indicated to him there will be two versions...
