I dont think Neca's 7inch figures have been $30 for a while now.

Guess that tells you the last time I bought a NECA figure LOL. Still, they're less than Super 7 Ultimates, and (in my opinion) look way better.

You are correct from my observation. Most Neca stuff is at least $35+, and the fact that it hardly ever, if at all, gets marked down makes it difficult to get them for less than that outside of maybe ebay. Still better than $55 though, which I think was the point of the original comment, I believe.

I did not realize this was a crowd funding campaign. I was under the impression that this was something that Super7 was just going to release. That said, I havent paid much attention to it since I dont really collect the O ring or 3.75 inch Joes. I know a lot of people still like small scale stuff, bit Im not one of them.

There are quite a few Ultimates that I would be interested in, but yeah at the $55 a pop price point, that's gonna be a no from me. Especially when you got companies like NECA who can make a far more detailed and realistic looking 7" figure at $30/ea. Sorry but S7's Star Trek and Power Rangers (for example) look way too cartoony.

Sad story. Also, I'm still unsure if the future o-ring figures will be about the same price point as the ReAction figures.

I thought Super7's Lady Jaye looked great and cartoon accurate... until I got it home. The figure's heads look nothing as advertised. Unfortunately, there's a lot that needs to be reevaluated there.

Super 7 really needs to evaluate their pricing. This was seen as "well thats not gonna be funded" almost instantly and unanimously.

You cant make SO many largely niche figures and sell them for 55 USD each; including Snarf FFS or ask 100 dollars more than the frigging HasLab HISS tank for this ship and expect success. EE just cleared.out wave 1 of GI Joe Ultimates for the price of a single figure. BBTS had that huge Ultimates sale -and it will happen again I am sure.

I dont know their books and overhead but I know if I am a retailer trying to clear out your products I throttle my future orders.

Well said. Nothing further to add

Not really surprised by this but, sorry to the people who wanted it to happen.
