They’d already announced the P.Stew/McAvoy and McKellan/Fassbender Xavier and Magneto, hadn’t they?

Warhead comes in a 2 pack with the movie Deadpool. It's not going to be a normal wave. Cable is Walmart, and there's a Domino. Originally planned for early fall but who knows now I guess.

They already showed all of these at Toyfair. 2 wolverines (one in jacket, one in tank top with dogtags), the Xavier/Magneto 2 pack with head swaps for both sets of actors, the Jennifer Lawrence Mystique.

I wonder if they would Haslab a big Stay Puft. It would probably still be undersized but even that seems too big for a BAF.

The Prime Sentinels will be $100+ each withing weeks of the release. You could buy the Sentinel and make more than half back flipping those two.

So what I'm inferring from this is it'd be stupid NOT to purchase the 5 maximum allowed?

This is kinda where I’m at, but I just spent money on like half a dozen different video sales plus a brand new 3D printing hobby and all the supplies involved. Maybe I’ll back it in a few weeks after it gets up to something crazy like 15k backers.

That's where I'm at, I'm just nervous about dropping a ton of money right now. I'm definitely selling all the extras to cover the cost of the one sentinel I bought so far.

I don't get that though. How many people out there really want and will overpay for a female Sentinel Prime figure and a Master Mold head but NOT a huge Sentinel?

That’s where my head is at, I’m hoping a kindly goon will be okay with parting with the Prime Sentinel for a reasonable price to subsidize some of their Sentinel purchase, but not hope for a colossal $100+ payday on the figure. If that’s the way it’s going to go, Rhyno is right and I might as well go all-in.

Well if you look at the Sail Barge which is the closest analog we have for this completed sales have gone from on the low end of 950 to 1600. Yakface alone which there is not as many completed sales has gone for 165-229.

Now there will likely be more people buying extra Sentinels than Sail Barges just for the mix of a slightly lower price and the knowledge of how much Sail Barges have gone on the secondary market. But you have to weight that with how much more popular and iconic of a item a Sentinel is comparatively. I am not sure how much the figures will sell for since Bastian is the most well known of the two and is still fairly obscure. Anyone who would really want one will likely be the type that will be ordering one already. Anyone that popular would likely be rereleased outside of this as well, which would be a fear for all of this as well since Hasbro has not shied away from doing rereleases of popular, in demand items. After all all the tooling and whatnot will be done for this which will make a second run nearly pure profit for them a year or two down the line.

Personally if I had the money I'd buy multiple being prepared to eat the cost of the extras and I'd sit on them for a bit until a new X-Men movie is announced/comes out to flip for maximum profit.

Aphrodite

The Sail Barge finished with half the backers the Sentinel currently has, and was also their first project so there was some doubt about it and resistance to the Kickstarter method.

That meant probably a lot more people out there who wanted one but didn't get one through the campaign.

It's not easy to predict how aftermarket will go on these. You'd certainly see some profit, even if just to sell to people outside the US/Canada.

Based on the current ToyBiz, and hell, Hasbro Sentinel 3rd party market, I could only seeing these things increasing in value over the years, especially with the extra add-ins and potential future tiers being added. If Hasbro does something crazy like include an exclusive TAS Morph with the sentinel, expect fans to fork out a shitload of money for him kinda like with what they're doing with Rogue. Futures on sentinels can only go up up up!

All yours in a year and a half.

Single carded figure is $20, right? So that plus the shipping, let's say $25.
