I agree but quietly bought 1 anyway. The price might keep me from buying every version like I did with the 1st rose. I'll stick to the ust haves. I understand the production cost of this going up though with a few more paint masks than the norm. Actually I was expecting $80 or more. Not sure if they reused the head mold, but there are many additional pieces and a lot of paint masks involved here. So I k kw it wasn't cheap to make. As a maker I really appreciate the design and fabrication of this. In fact honestly I am quite jealous of this  but in a good way to aspire to do better things myself. As a fan, I love the aesthetics and everthing about it, so I got one, no brainer. Congrats to josh and super 7 on a great toy!

 Re: Green Hell on Wheels Casket Cruiser
Busted my butt to get out of work by 6.30 last night and hustled over to my Plastic Heart. Got there about 5 minutes before they closed. And got the news they already sold out.
Disappointed, but next time I will make sure not to sleep even if it's just 4 hours.

 Re: Green Hell on Wheels Casket Cruiser
Arrived. The packaging is amazing. Completely worth the price. It's such a great release and seems incredibly thought out and extremely well executed.
Congrats jjh and super7.

 Re: Green Hell on Wheels Casket Cruiser
I'm guessing it doesn't come bagged with a header? Man, I can't wait!

 Re: Green Hell on Wheels Casket Cruiser
The Cruiser itself is awesome of course, but the header and artwork really came as a surprise when I opened my box today. Totally blown away. Great job on this figure!
I second the request for a t-shirt of the header art! That would be a must-buy.

 Re: Green Hell on Wheels Casket Cruiser
The header card is 2 sided:  Here's a comparison with a regular Rose Vampire:

 Re: Green Hell on Wheels Casket Cruiser
had to do it..... could not resist......!!! so glad I found one of these before they all disappeared completely... retail works even though it seems like every toy always pops up later on the cheap.. I wonder how long this little guy will hold onto his instant "sold out" market charm among the quick to sell my awesome toy type collectors are concerned...?
great job guys....!!! I fucking love it....!!!
