Only 631 Boba's left in stock. S or get off the P

 

Shame they don't sell Kiwi pack versions!

Under 600

 

I didnt order any. I think the price is too high. Sorry

But thats just my opinion

 

 

They'll be higher for a few months and in a year you will be able to get them for $20 or less. There were enough of these printed and they went to enough 'speculators' that they won't be locked up in people's collections.

 

We will see. 5000 copies for a Star Wars variant featuring an extremely popular character is not a lot of copies at all. The fanbase for non-comic Star Wars dwarfs the number of SW comic collectors.

 

1) This isn't the rarest Boba Fett cover produced. Just in January we had Boba Fett covers with 3000 copies and 1500 copies each and none of those issues are selling for $100 raw.

2) How many different comics have Boba Fett on the cover already? And this isn't even the best of those covers.

3) The first appearance of Boba Fett (whichever comic you consider the first appearance) doesn't even sell for $100 NM raw.

 

I think it is great people are hyped about a comic with a cover with Boba Fett. But the euphoria needs to be put into perspective.

Who's going to be first to market with a 9.8?

Whichever one of us gets theirs first at Wizardworld next month?

 

I'm thinking someone is going to 2 day this or whatever the fastest way is if the hype keeps up.

 

Are you going? I might only do Th and Sun after last year, but I really want a Katie Cassidy SS on site.

I got my 4 day pass so I won't have to run around like a nut trying to get everything done in 1 shot

Honestly, I think the number of Star Wars comic speculators outnumber the number of Star Wars comic collectors.

There were a few different Fett variants for issue 1, some with substantially fewer copies than 5000, featuring much better art that haven't seen much if any uptick in demand.

All true, but this has a theme that tons of people are collecting and will need for their sets

This is a theme that a tons of people are collecting? Or speculating on? Seriously, I don't see these tons of people collecting lame knockoffs of action figures, but I do see tons of speculators talking about them.

This is the only Action Figure Variant cover..i don't think speculators are the majority of those interested in this cover. Sounds like you just don't want to buy any so you're pulling a Johnny Raincloud.

I think at $20 it's a good buy. They will be sold out today - that's a sure thing. And then you're either buying from the artist directly at a con (while supplies last) or on secondary ( AKA higher price ). Maybe not a huge profit long run, but I don't see the value in this one dropping for a long time.

Agreed I just got one.

I should also point out that Season 2 of the Rebels Tv Series will feature Boba for sure. Just guessing.

That is just a guess but if you watch the season 1 finale you should agree that we will be seeing familiar characters on the next season.

And for the record, I hope everyone does well with their investment, I just refuse to speculate $30 on a book with alot of hype.. If this was an "Under the radar" book I'd be all over it by now, if it was $5-6 id already have 4-5 copies, but $30 for something which is well advertised is risky business for me based on experience.

This is a nice cover, popular character and everyone should buy this just for that, if it becomes a winner, heck you may flip them, if not, youll still be happy cause you like the cover. Win win
