I don't know much about action figure development, but I can't imagine that adding some kind of bicep swivel would jack up the cost per figure much, if at all.

That aside $275 to be all in and done with these guys to me isn't terrible considering the prices of everything. I see people making guys with $20-30 custom heads that you need to buy another figure for, so you're in for $60-70 already.
NECA's that sell in ever Target/Walmart in the US are $40. Another $20 for these guys that NECA wouldn't even touch beyond Clarence perhaps is just the price to be in the game. I'm on the fence, but I just bought a dragon lol/
Eeehhhhhhh...I hate to say it, but you made a decent point. Still, the price alone will limit how many of these they sell, but the hardcore will absolutely plunk down the dough. ESPECIALLY considering that no other company will probably make these guys in our lifetimes. I've certainly spent stupid money on some stuff in my collection.
At least Clarence has a pistol, so he'll look fine in one-handed weapon poses, at least. Emil might have to be purchased as well, dammit.
But again, the lack of a bicep swivel nearly reduces these to glorified ReAction figures. I wonder if some genius will find a way to mod these figures? I'd think an experienced customizer could add swivels somewhere...
