Does anyone know how much these things cost? I'm almost afraid to ask!

Major Konig and Zaitsev would cost slightly above a 100 bucks each. It's safe to assume US$120.00

The samurais would cost US$150.00 but I got one for US$120.00. Well I asked for a discount

Edit: Well it's rather expensive but it's not exceedingly expensive. It's not like we're going to spend 300 bucks on it
If you really like it perhaps saving some money to get one that you really like could be worth the patience. No one is forcing us to buy the whole lot. If it's only one or two then why not? They are not toys but must be regarded as display item. Sure we could play with how to pose them but that's about it I guess. The really good ones make fabulous display. The samurai figure that I had looks more like an exotic oriental(Japanese) souvenir when displayed. That picture above doesn't do it justice.

120? Man, that's really not bad. I might consider investing into one of these, as soon as I get myself some shelf space... haven't got enough to display all my toys as it is!

Considering the quality we're getting yes it's not bad at all imo

I guess to many Americans and Europeans(or Canadians) such price tag is peanuts

That is quite reasonable, I have been corresponding with them and a U-boat commander is being discussed, I made a couple of suggestions, I'm hoping it's a goer!!

Thanks for posting this thread Castout!!

If you've been in discussions, then tell them that they have another definite buyer as soon as they put out that U-boat commander. White cap, nice pair of binoculars and a Luger, maybe an optional oilskin coat - oh yeah

For that much money, I sure hope he's anatomically correct.

I honestly don't know if that's a good thing, or a bad thing. And I sure as hell ain't gonna google it.

I know one thing, if they make a u-boot commander and don't model it on der Alte from Das Boot, I'll seriously have to consider writing them a strongly worded letter before I purchase it.

Well yeah but which one would you purchase first? Pre voyage or post voyage?

For the rest of you guys just remember: They're not dolls, they're action figures!
