    Being a big Sly Cooper fan, I have been very disappointed in the lack of merchandise. Until I saw this..

    Sly Cooper Statue - Sly Cooper Statues

    I couldn't pass this up. Its pretty expensive, but its only limited to 750 pieces.

    So a couple of questions I got for you guys is what is your most expensive figure/statue you paid for? Also, what is your most valuable? (sentimental value and/or money value) This one will be my most expensive statue. My most valued? Check my sig :lol

    Most expensive in what I paid or what it's worth now?

    Pretty sure most I've paid (so far) is $310 for my Hot Toys Mark XLII, but I've got four figures that outdo that in a year. Think my most valuable is probably my Hot Toys Hawkeye.

    I believe I paid $300 or so for my Felicia Statue. Could be wrong though as that was years ago. But the most expensive by far is the one I'm currently helping/contributing to for my Girl.

    I wish Sly Cooper had taken off a bit more and we got action figures and even a cartoon show after playing the hell out of Sly 2 (the best of the series).

    Definitely. I would even like some pop vinyl figures from Funko, they did do Sackboy and Kratos afterall.

    Sly 2 is the best, I just would of preferred Clockwerk being rebuilt as apposed to Clockla.

    Most expensive? VMF50 Super Sonico. That girl was just a few dollars short of $1K :lol 

    Most sentimental? Not sure if I have one at the moment.

    You think $20 is a lot?

    Anyway, mine's Fortress Maximus. The toy itself was already around 250 USD, but shipping and customs added at least another 150 to that...

    Sly, Murray, Bentley, and Carmelita scream TOY to me. Even over characters like Dmitri, Penelope, Guru, Panda King, Clockwerk, and others... There should be figures and a full on cartoon or comic series.

    I hated what they did in Sly 4 to be honest game wise. Penelope's heel turn being the biggest "seriously?" moment in the whole game.

    Compared to yours, no, but I like the "spend this much on one item and get free shipping". That doesnt seem to be the case for BBTS.
