 Re: some people NEED to put down the crack pipe!!!
I was a little shocked by that one as well. I get being competitive and all but that's a bit high.

 Re: some people NEED to put down the crack pipe!!!
I actually thought this was the 4th brown bronze lol. BEMON has really dropped the ball on the 2 headed if you ask me. The toy is in my top 3 and he has almost repeated the color of everyone twice.
This is a waste of black vinyl. He could have done trashout colors and that would have been perfect and probably easier. Silver spray on black vinyl and red eyes, DONE.
Bummer but at the same time a load off my shoulders as I now dont have to track down another hard to find 2 headed.

 Re: some people NEED to put down the crack pipe!!!
Isn't it black with red and silver? I think any other color is just lighting I don't think that's paint, except for the back.
I actually really like this one, seems fitting, but it's not worth all that BS.

 Re: some people NEED to put down the crack pipe!!!
Still don't get why anyone would spend THAT much on a toy? I get liking something, especially toys, believe me I do...BUT that is ridiculous. Hell invest in gold bullion if you feel the need to have something valuable.

 Re: some people NEED to put down the crack pipe!!!
stupid. people are lemmings and think it's the cool thing to have. vintage, i understand that, but this is not worth the money.
the bemon dude is smart though, at least he's getting a cut off of the flipper market.

 Re: some people NEED to put down the crack pipe!!!
I'm confused. There's two different bronze ones? Any pics to show the difference?
Yeah, Thrashout colours would have been superb, but with 30 of these eventually being released, this is crazy. 1863.9544 US dollars plus fees.
You could buy some AMAZING vintage for that figure....

 Re: some people NEED to put down the crack pipe!!!
HELLOOOO! This is sofvi. He can keep making these anytime. This is not a one-of-a-kind art piece. Unless somebody is going to kill him off and burn the mold? Even then there's already a hundred of this sculpt making their rounds.  Well, maybe this thing is going to double its price in a years time. But I'd rather be stupid and rich than stupid and broke.

 Re: some people NEED to put down the crack pipe!!!
He's not really going to sell all 30 that way, is he? It's smart for him if he does, but it's also gross.

 Re: some people NEED to put down the crack pipe!!!
You've got a cool mom, atease. I like her point of view!
And you're right. Mr. Bemon is a smart dude. Thanks to the two fools, errr, one's confirm, the other soon, he'll be able to repeat this cycle again.
