Well it's it's about 50 bucks per statue, I bet the life size portal gun (they better make one) will be like 180 bucks and there will only be 100 made, meaning it will sold out before I manage to type in my credit card info.
Nice to see Valve's figured out another way to print money!
I figure if I've got the money to blow, I'd get a Sniper, Pyro, maybe the Heavy or Engi. As far as L4D, maybe Francis (I don't hate vests). I *really* hope they make a Gordon Freeman; heck, if they made crowbar and grav-gun alt versions I'd buy both! A Houndeye would be fun to have as well.
Yah... this is gonna hurt the ol' wallet pretty bad. :poly142:
Even stranger, there's no mention of the statues on Valve's website....
I'm sure it's all legit but I sure as hell wouldn't be sending $229 to a company who weren't gonna deliver til the end of 2010 without some confirmation they are the real deal.
Is there a £20 alternative? Thats my limit for Figures tbh.
Hope they do a sentry gun though. Would love one to guard my desk....oooh...imagine a nerf style USB sentry gun, with motion sensors....now i would pay uber cash for that like...
Ooh, this is much more fun. I'll be able to knock out a few models and show off how I got the models months earlier than everyone else due to my L-eet connections.

What the hell. Why not make it 6-8" and a lot cheaper? I was expecting something more of that size between 50-75$ and I would have bought one for that in an instant.
If they do make more characters in the future maybe they will be a bit less huge and a lot more affordable?
they need to fix their god damn website. how stupid could they be not to realize that EVERYONE would want one of these. yea I understand they only made like 300 of them or w/e, but they really need to improve their bandwidth because the sites been on/off broken since the whole thing was announced.

Thats actually a great idea. Been thinking about getting some Sculpey for a while now. Might give it a go.
Heres what I was hoping for. They would sell thousands of figures like this. I'd certainly buy them all at a £20 each price tag. Why make expensive limited editions. Anyhoo...they might get round to this one day.
around 300 bucks??? special edition, shipping to germany. That´s too much, i get alot of great books/education for that money. But i´m going to print out some sentry-guns when i got some time to polish the models

This is awesome news, bit strange they didn't do it earlier hehe.
The funny thing is, Kotaku mentioned it the day before...

EDIT: well it's not really that funny, I agree, TF2 figures are well overdue.
I want all of them... but my wallet says otherwise, I'll have to wait until I can figure out which characters I want the most.
Gotta have them!
Iam very impressed by the quality of the heavy. textures and all.
haha JK..
This is going to be so expensive
I want a Red Pyro.

I'm not sure how much I was expecting them to be but $229 is too much for me to afford right now for a desk ornament.
They're definitely awesome though.
Limited to 750 too, will be interesting to see how quick they sell out.
Although to make that $229 hurt that little bit more, they're not shipping til Q4 2010 :O

Ah ok, that's good. Shame they're not releasing them yet though. Anyone still planning to get one?
