yeah, i had my eye on him on another site and i wanted him soooooooooo much but i did not want to pay full price, lol. i kept watching and waiting and waiting and watching and finally i got him on sale, yay!!!! still he was expensive compared to what i have paid for a lot of my other props, his shipping was expensive too - grrrrr, but i think he was worth it. i took him out of the box briefly to make sure that he worked and he was cool. also his cool goggles are actually more like an accessory, they are not attached to his head, so i had those on walking around the house, lol.
