I meant mixed in that it gets the name out, shows demand for product, but also it a vehicle for people to get exclusives without going.

The PR for the con has been overwhelmingly positive in my opinion.


CH, I can see your point, the cost of going up to the con was about 100% greater than we estimated, so my pal segnett and I were considering selling our sets to recoup, but they looks so sweet, its a toss up.

not a fan of the tanks as much as the figures, though, then again, I only have about 10 vehicles total, :)

I wonder if US sets show a trend of selling higher or lower.

Mine is probably going to be going up on ebay in the near future.  It's an amazing set but I could use some of the extra bucks these guys are pulling in on ebay to put towards some things I need to do.

ended at 350, not bad for the buyer considering so many others went for much higher.  I wouldnt mind picking up a 2nd set if I found one for 200ish, probablly wont happen though  ;D.

It will be interesting to see where it ends.  It looks like it is on track for around $300US by the end.

I find it interesting that there were only 100 sets, but from what I have seen here and on Ebay I wuold say at least 10 sets are now either broken up or stickered.
