Hey man it's on BBTS now for $71, I know you didn't wanna hassle to get this so hopefully you can get it thru BBTS.

I have the Mezco version on preorder. I think it looks much better than this. I think the face sculpts on this are terrible.

...2023 would be the 31st anniversary though?

Ok well seeing as I posted 2 very well known sites that I and many other people have ordered from dozens of times should make it easy. But anyway it's getting a US release so it's easy for you.

I feel like $70 for Michael Keaton's stunt double is a little too much for me But hey, maybe this is a sign they WILL do Joker! Just, y'know, without Nicholson's likeness hahaha

Honestly, with all the great customizes out there, I’m fine with that. Give us the bodies with accurate suits and a clown head, I’ll do the rest.

Yah no keaton unmasked head no beuneo

[CasualCollector]

As much as this scratches the itch for me (the Mezco, while accurate, is going in a direction I like) just watch Medicom once again come out with a more appealing one.

Ah. My mistake for not clarifying. 2022 would be the start of the 30th anniversary, but product is likely to creep into 2023, hence the 3 years comment. Just like how we're still seeing some 80th/30th anniversary stuff from Soap Studios, Mezco, and others.

This. I'm fine with it but even the prospect of getting a custom head for this is not bad at $71 as long as it guarantees me getting a good base body.

[Weapon X]

Yikes.

Likeness rights are weird. You'd think they could just do something Nicholsonesque, with the same style of permanent grin along with the hair style. Like if they made a different actor up in the same way. But then, why did the cartoon Ghostbusters need to look as different as they did? Egon could have had short dark hair and not looked specifically like Harold Ramis.
