>>7291182Eh, if you're in the lower tax brackets or live with parents inside a closet and live off of minimum wage I really can understand that mindset. Statues are most definitely reserved/preordered by either hardcore collectors, dinks, scalpers, or single persons who make more than enough to be well off and can risk stupid purchases on 'meh' investments. I imagine their mindsets probably being if they increase in value, 'great', and they don't, 'who cares I got a cool statue'.
It's high art that only really appeals to geeks and those longing for nostalgia from their soulless jobs. That said, I have also seen a kid probably no more than 14 on youtube who reviews statues, some of them in the $800+ preorder range, so I guess if you have parents who are well off, they can also afford this no problem as well.
Pic is of Griffith with the all time low price tag of $999 + S/H. I promise you in 2020 you will not find him for less than $2,000.
