I saw that Christoph it is an interesting number use as far as value. (A case where I was not tempted oddly enough - a lottttttt of money to spend for something I will not get around to finishing. 550 figures would make quite a diorama still.)
I work for a large sports company and there is a very active market for our sneakers including used products - they have their own scale of price, a separate EBAY like entity to buy and sell as well authenticators who will look at your $25,000 sneakers and determine if they are real or not.
I wonder if flat figures will eventually gain this sort of notieriety at which point I am sitting on a veritable gold mine of wealth!
