Wow... $160 would be great... if you could find it anywhere besides Asia, on the ground, for that price.
this is over $200 with s/h from US distributors.

Jor-El about three years ago was around $100 - It was cool but really worth half of that IMO - This just doesn't come with much for the massive price increase. It's not like a Predator, and the "new body" BS is something I just don't believe anymore. You can't change a slight detail and call it a "new body" and expect me to believe it's all new. A clear plastic base like that can't part out more than $5-10... The only real accessory should be standard with this thing, not an extra you have to chase down. Like the Joker before it, HT takes advantage of the hype and makes an increase. I expect a PERS and DX version to follow at double the price in 6 months.

I agree that USD 200 is

I agree that USD 200 is rather expensive for this set (From where I live the price tag's around USD 170 - 185) & I hope Hot Toys will give us more accessories included within this set , but without a doubt, it really is a gorgeous Reeve as Superman figure, one that I'll pre-order immediately :)
