I pre-ordered the exclusive and think the base idea is great but the price 299.99 knocked my socks off. I know it is actually two characters, but anyone else think this is overpriced?

I've never bought any ET items before, so maybe I don't know what I'm talking about. But aftermarket values for these items seem pretty low.

I guess I have 5 months or so to think more about it... :confused:

I noticed that too. They are also offering 2 per person on a 100 piece exclusive.

Yeah, even with the 2 characters I thought it was still overpriced. The SS exclusive looks much better than the regular. Just not for me.

As much as I hate to admit it, I've always thought the Electric Tiki products were over priced, and hence, why they don't sell that well. I love the sculpts and the licenses, but except for the Sideshow exclusives of Betty Boop, Herman and Retro Woody, every other ET product I've gotten has been off eBay for about 1/4 to 1/3 the original cost!

40 left. I wonder how many people are buying doubles.

This is one ET piece that is kind of tempting. I think the regular is far superior to the exclusive though. The coat color and the green on the base is just more interesting.

This piece is about 1/6 scale, which makes it bigger than the normal ET figures too.

I can't make up my mind which I like better. So, I chose the wishy-washy thing to do. I pre-ordered both, so I can make up my mind later. :D

I was going to order until I seen the price. $300.00 is crazy.

No way for $300. I know it's large, but it just isn't worth it. ET really needs to regulate their pricing better. Especially when you consider the Vader/Anakin diorama is going to be less.

I rather get that instead.

I love Electric Tiki but I agree that this is a little over-priced.:(

I ordered the exclusive but I know that I'll probably cancel it.

$300 is a lot of money for something like this.
