While I've been hoping for "blank" or "unpainted" opaque figures like White Star Astro-Nautilus
for a while now, I always imagined them cheaper and sold individually.
A giant boxed set of 8 figures with practically no paint screams
"completeist only," which is no doubt why the 200-set run didn't sell
out at Comic-Con and why people aren't exactly screaming to get these. A
few samples were being flipped on eBay for $200 per boxed set, but
oddly nobody is splitting up the sets to sell singles just yet. Given
the increasing prices and decreasing customer base for the line, I hope
future, similar sets are sold individually just to encourage
less-hardcore fans to jump on board. Were I new to this line, dropping
$240 on 14 figures at 1 booth at a show would be pretty terrifying.[ READ THE FULL REVIEW ]
