I think they're kinda neat, but im not so keen on nearly 500 dollars for them, really? (i believe these are Prototypes & there will be a production run of these) PS: Bum holes!!!
oh indeed, im ok with people charging whatever they deem right for their work, i was expressing my own feelings on wheteher i would pay it. I agree art is really worth exactly as much as people are willing to pay. no hate here, just saying 'I personally wouldn't pay close on 500 dollars for this piece'
Agreed about the production version. The price is a little steep, then again I've got three toys on my brain based want list that are well over £100 :/
well the volume and price changed, there was an initial run about 5 months ago of 3 i think, sold directly by jason for $480 hene the original count and year being 2011, the 25 done now & sold for $50 through jailbreak toys should be added to the original 3 making quantity 28 i guess. also if i had of bought one of the original 3 i would be mighty pissed at the same thing being sold for a much lower price
Ah... thanks for the update. That makes some sense. I was wondering why the comments were from 5 months ago, but I couldn't tell how long the FOR SALE had been listed. Ya, I would be pissed too.
I was actually able to put one in my cart, but just couldn't do $50 at the time so decided not to get one. I couldn't imagine $500, but some people just gotta have it.

Well,
I looked through his page sometime earlier and I also don't think that 9" Anatomical Mario shouldn't cost 2000 dollars or 4" Anatomical Munny 1300$.
Even though they are "one of a kind items" this feels like really milking the buyers..

I wasn't hating either. Simply "IMHO" expressing my own opinion :)

A toy designer charging at (correct) consulting rates, good on him I say! More people should do it really.
