Even though I make good income these figma prices are getting ridiculous for the value. What I mean specifically is the gap between these things and the lower aftermarket prices of their 1/6 RAH cousins is really narrowing. I collect both.
Case and point figma Archer that went around 8K Mandarake and the release MSRP is still 6K. 1/6 RAH Archer was as low as 11K after not too long on the aftermarket (less than double the price). Same with figma Saber Extra vs. RAH Saber Extra. While I'd never pay the sticker or sometimes even preorder price for a RAH, their tanked aftermarket prices are great value even with any QC issues. Why would you buy a more fragile 1/12 with less articulation when the 1/6 equivalent is just a modest a premium away?
Medicom can do alright without GSC molds too. Recent example being RAH Sakura which I quite like. They really should make more RAH. If Medicom does that and the price gap against figma keeps on narrowing might as well just go 1/6 exclusive. Already have a ton of stuff for the 1/6 wardrobe.
