Well, obviously. We're not exactly talking about big-budget/major studio stuff here
That doesn't mean you should charge an obscene amount of money for that quality, not only is that a bad business strategy it also reflects poorly on the company like saying "we'll produce at this low level and you'll keep buying at our exorbitant prices". They have the money to hold conventions, I wouldn't say they are grand but they certainly make money.
Well, keep in mind that the final price of the thing is more likely McFarlane's call- not Rooster Teeth's.
Rooster Teeth has to pay McFarlane to make these- and McFarlane would have had to create new molds, make the models, paint, package, and then distribute them.
All that costs money, and- like all businesses- they need to make a profit.
So, yeah- the price is a little higher than what I'd be willing to pay (Not really huge onto models in general, anyways)- but the price seems to be about par for the course, really.
According to some reviews, the biggest complaint has been about the model not staying together very well- which is a pretty easy fix.
