I feel no matter what type of collector you are, it is a niche market.
We are privileged to be able to afford high end niche collectables its not how expensive one item is, b/c personally they are all expensive and any lay person would think one is mad to pay such a price for such items.
Liken to when i hear women pay 100s of $ for shoes i will never understand ( as there just shoes) or a person spending 100s to 1000s of dollars for a watch,. This is the same reason why they don't understand why we have an affinity to starwars collectables and pay the price we do..
Which brings me to my point, will it be a regrettable buy, that's the most important thing for me b/c i already know they are expensive items to the lay person.
I hear it occasionally when my wife's friends or my relatives comes over when they ask. LOL. Then i point them to their watch , shoes, or there expensive night out, holiday, blah blah blah.
If i were to buy the dewback it would not be a regrettable buy
for me
I love the statue, but it would not go with my theme of 1/10 figures from Sideshow statues.
My SS Rancore and my holly grail SS dewback and sand trooper (which i was blessed to obtain a month ago, after 3 years of searching) look absolutely awesome together (they look like a diorama thanks to Mandibles suggestion).
Might have to make a small diorama of them.
Any how if anyone is interested in pictures of my ss rancore and dewback together im happy to post.
In addition if someone has the SS dewback and the 1/6 dewback could they take a picture of both together so i can compare the 2, as if they look great together i may be converted
Remember Its never expensive if you don't regret the purchase
