$30 price jump for the accessories and Avengers tax? Damn, even though it's just $10 more than I expected, that's still a big jump.

What?!?!?
You've been moaning about it non-stop, lol, or agreeing with others who have been moaning.

 

[Nuka Cola Kidd]

Ordered!

 

[GeneralZodLives]

Yeah, that's a nice little jump for the accessories. She's gonna need a coupon or extra rewards later for me to buy.

 

[Mugatu]

Pass.

I'm going back and fourth on this one. I do like it but I think if I can be patient and wait this one out it could be had for much cheaper down the line. The price also has me a little miffed. Re-used head should equal lower cost IMHO.

Ordered, she's gonna be my third Widow

Never enough Natasha

This price is about $10 higher than what I was expecting. So it comes down to the question of if I want the new suit more than the comic traditional one of TWS. Need to think on this one.

 

[BatBrain]

$220? Pass. At least until she's on sale/double rewards.

You know there's a lot of work in the heads, right? They don't pop out a machine looking like that...
It takes just as much work to paint a re-use of an older sculpt, just as much materials, just as much manpower to assemble.
the notion that somehow their costs have drastically gone down because they re-use one part seems a bit strange.

It was always going to go up, since there's a repaint, a new outfit, and a lot more accessories than usual; however, it's definitely an "Everyone wants Avengers" jump, as I think it'd normally be $10 cheaper, even with the extra guns and beat sticks.

I'm pretty sure this will make me hold off for Civil War or Infinity Wars though. I'll debate for a little while longer, but that's the one advantage with these figures...always more attempts in the future (at least for another few movies!)

I know this is HT we're talking about here, but the price seems higher than I was expecting.

 

[GeneralZodLives]

Assembling cost would be the same but the initial cost of the mold isn't there so they're saving money by not creating a new HS.

This figure makes AoA Captain America at $225 seem like a steal! You get an extra head sculpt a nice magnetic shield and a mask for $5 more than the widow.

Yeah, that's why I figured this would land at $209.99...the extra $10 is pretty surprising. Even though it's just the cost of a meal at McDonald's or whatever.

Yep. Makes me think Hawkeye will come in over $230.
