Ok, that might not be guaranteed for you, but I can imagine how the conversation would go if I broached the idea of buying this ornate $6,000 (that’s right, it costs more than a reliable used car) action figure (I say action figure because you can move the arms and legs):
“Um, sweetie, since I got my work bonus and I was able to sell some stuff on eBay, um, I was thinking I would like to get this” /shows picture of Darth Malgus
“Oh, wow that’s cool, how big is it?”
“Um, 7-feet-tall”
/looks at me like I have completely lost my mind
“Ohhhhhkayyyyy, how much is it?”
“Just $6000 but you can finance it for $750 a month!”
“So basically, you want to buy a $6,000 action figure, which the pictures of are already scaring the dog?”
“Um, maybe?”
“I am moving out.”
On second thought maybe, I will just steal the costume idea for Halloween. But, if you’re interested you can purchase your very own from Side Show Toys. Here’s the product description and pics:
