I'm considering buying this. would you say its that much better then the two bowen 1/6 statues on angels?

Absolutely. 

I legitimately think its the best statue I own (and im not being biased).

Check out gem mint collectibles review on YouTube.   Lots if angles and visuals and he breaks it down nicely.

First appearance of the Jackal!  Nice!  Oh, and that other guy.  

Wait a sec... 

Punisher shot and killed Jackal in Civil War right?

I never made that connection

I thought Top Loaders were only used for displaying comics or mailing them? A Mylar2 and Fullback is all you need.

I would agree with this.

The mylites2 + fullbacks are by far the best for storing/preserving.
 

A "grail" to me is something I dont have, really want, and is attainable but very unlikely or will have to wait.

I.e. Detective 27 cant be a grail for me.  It's not happening.

I have most of the Marvel SA mega keys except for FF1 and ASM1 so I guess those 2 would be my grails.  They're attainable for me, but not right now kind of thing.

Noobs are getting it confused with ASM 129? 

Sometimes, as I scroll the boards or something when I see Xmen 129 my first instinct is to think of Punisher.

I think the 129 is synonymous to Punisher for me

I would buy anything less than a 9.8.

I just don’t know about the recent uptick in prices. I honestly have given up trying to predict where prices will go.

My best guess is that as long as you are willing to hold it for 5+ years that even if there’s a price correction you should be ok.

How often have we seen that though?

Take any 5 yr rolling period and Id be willing to be that any 9.8 for a popular character is pricier at the end of it than at the beginning.  The ones that "price correct" are few and far between I would think.  Off the top of my head I cant think of any.

Well, it's in the "newer" holder so last couple years at least

I was talking about the direct market.. no new collectors... Less titles.. less books sold... That's what am talking about if it is going to survive we need more collectors you know? That was the point not talking about the second hand market 

Everything is cyclical.  Even vinyls are back in favour and selling at absurd amounts with many new collectors.

My LCS is always busy.  It's a large shop, orders everything new, has tons of trades, statues, gaming, collectibles... we are quite fortunate, but the point is, that shop is always packed.  

I can guarantee comic collecting will be around longer than any of us.

I honestly thought this thread was in jest or an April Fools joke considering how hot the comic market is.

It's ridiculous how much key books have climbed in the last 6 months even, nevermind 6 yrs.
