To which figures do you refer? All the eBay Jokers I see are still way above original retail....
I was delighted to get mine for 70 above retail....
Only figure I see go for below retail are
The Crow
The Mandarin
Amber
Jack Sparrow ( JK seeing if you were actually reading...)

If you're one of the people wanting a "complete" version with Adam Driver head, battle damage, burned Vader helmet, or whatever else is on your wish-list, I guess you should wait.
If you're like me and don't give a damn about that stuff since all that stuff would stay in the box anyway...then absolutely buy it. I have no regrets and stare at this beauty every day.
My sentiments as well. Precisely why I pulled the trigger on this one.
Nice pose by the way.

Bank Robber Joker. Before 2.0 was released, I am not kidding, you couldnt find the bank robber joker new for under $600. Some were $800. 2.0 came out, prices dropped off a cliff.
Kylo sells out, ebay prices soar, Kylo DX is announced, prices nosedive. Happens every single time. Economics 101.

You have to take into account the ~2 year wait in between releases though. As with anything, you can buy this years model or wait a couple years and buy used from someone else and save a few bucks. Being a consumer 101

Ok, is it worth pre-ordering now then? I would prefer to wait for a few more weeks to get some money together but I'm not sure whether the figure will sell out quickly. Sorry for all the questions, I'm new to this stuff

To be fair, her price has gone closer to $180-$200 since MGSV came out - though I'd suspect thats a temporary boost.

Where are they selling for $180 and up, cause I'd like to unload a couple.

Do I wait for V2.0 and potentially miss out on finding this one later.....decisions.

If they do make a v2 there is a chance they will not include his helmet because he left that behind before he became battle damaged

I dunno, I hear they ramped up production again, I doubt they will miss this opportunity to sell as many as they can....
Might be the first time we see a glut of extra figures laying around.....
Anyone care to comment?

Yeah, don't see that happening. Where'd you "hear" about their production plans?

To even compare The MGS3 Boss figure to a Kylo Ren figure is just downright crazy
I wasn't exactly... Just to Hot Toys figures in general. I think it's just specific, popular brands like Batman, Star Wars, and Avengers that really hold their value. Everything else tends to go down in price.

I heard that he's supposed to be arriving at SSC at the end of this month, so I presume you would probably have a few more weeks if you PO it right before they get him in.
I don't see him selling out between now and that time.
