    Has anyone looked into the DC and Marvel chess sets that they did?

    Just running some quick numbers from their American DC chess set - https://en-us.eaglemoss.com/hero-col...omics/dc-chess

    The standard price of $17 + $2.50 P&H (USD) means that a full set of 32 runs you $630 USD or $680 USD for a premium set (2 alternate pieces).


    So basically the price is equivalent to their other sets, just in a different delivery module because they're less certain they could make the minimum threshold (noting people often don't complete whole sets of the single issue releases).

    I did get the buy the Batman set from newsagents, probably cost about as much as this. But paying each fortnight/month was easier to handle. But also note, some pieces were less than stellar paint jobs. For a premium product and price, I would expect better.

    As someone who doesn't play chess and who isn't interested in the chess board, but who's interested in getting one or two of the pieces here, i wish they also offered the single issues option.
