I think that the Disney items are much bigger and are of comparable looks. No they are not AS good but they are still pretty good, Vader is really good and so is Kylo. They are only $20 bucks and twice the size. I would consider them better than some of the Mezco stuff from what I have seen. Could somebody enlighten me on how this item can SHOULD cost $80 while other items are less pricey and of comparable looks and quality?
(Not necessaril;y talking about Wolverine, he is great, but some of the other stuff is not THIS good IMHO)

I definitely get where you're coming from based on your comparison, It would seem odd to pay triple the price of the Disney Elite for a smaller figure. Here is why Mezco costs what they cost; they make a limited run of the figures, they tend to come with a lot of accessories (typically an extra head or 2, multiple sets of hands, weapons, a display stand, etc), they have 30 points of articulation, collector friendly packaging, the paint deco is typically really, really nice, and the tailored soft goods are typically some of the best in the industry on this scale. I know $80 seems high for a 6" action figure, but compared to almost all other figures in this scale, Mezco consistently makes better figures. I'd pay $80 for a Mezco Wolverine before I'd pay $30 for a rather mediocre Marvel Legends. But that's just my personal preference. I'm a big fan of Mezco's work.
