Remember, we also live in an era where statues have never been more popular with collectors. Everyone and their grandmother is making statues now and selling for......$200 to $1000+. That's more than most collectors can swallow. The way I see it, these are affordable statue pieces for display for the average adult collector. I for one think these will look nice on display as "centerpieces" of my star wars collection. We are still getting the 3.75 and 6" figures for everyone else. Why not diversify a little?

The $49.99 price point though...ouch. I kind of like the light effects but I think I speak for most adult collectors that nobody gives two sh!ts about sound effects, which only increases the cost and the price to consumers.
