[Anton Phibes]

Me too. But there's not a chance in hell.

 

[Simmon M]

Love the sculpt and I'm a huge sucker for the classics. I'm in!

Sadly, for me too. Love it, but can't buy at the moment.

No deposit required for preorder. Supposed to ship April 2013...time to save.

Yeah, but what's the price? Did I miss that somewhere? I'm sure he's way out of my reach, but I truly am impressed with this entry in their amazing line.

Would be nice if this piece was $1500 or so.

Me thinks there is a good chance for that. It's not an extremely popular character. Their Vader did not sell out at 2k, so who knows.
The preview pics look good.

CM dropped the max edition size to 500 on this one, the rest of their statues had a 1000 ES. I think they might use this as justification for a 2K price tag. We'll find out in an hour. It's up for preorder in the UK for over 2K USD though.

Even with a 1000 ES on Darth Vader, they stopped production at around 300.

best creature ever made!

 

[Patriot666]

$1650.00....Ordered!

 

[furystorm]

My only, very tiny, gripe with the piece is that the water seems to be far too blue. It was the "black lagoon," not the "blue lagoon."

That would be a whole different statue!

I agree. While I think the blue looks really nice, greener water would fit this piece better.

 

[furystorm]

But you ordered, so I'm still jealous!

 

[azurepred]

I think it looks pretty damn good. It represents classic horror very well. I just don't think there's any way I could swing it .
