A $5000 reserve, $2000 for the slot machine and $300 postage to within the US. Nice price... (For him)

[Reply #2 on:]

but it really worth it? It looks pretty lame.

when I see that bender all I think is...

"cant sleep, clown will eat me"

it looks like shit

slot machines ok though....

Looks kinda neat.  No way it's worth that much.

[Reply #12 on:]

For 5 grand?  Who needs it?  I'm making my own. 

[Reply #13 on:]

The face looks kinda weird, and what's with the lanky arms?!!

[Reply #14 on:]

the heads too small and the eyes are way too big, looks stupid!

If I was a rich man, it would be great to have in my game room.  But, I'm not rich, and I don't have a game room.  I would like to know what it says.

[Reply #16 on:]

I'd pay $100 for it, but that'd be it, it's cool, but I would only pay more if it actually looked completely like Bender, and if it walked around. Now that would be awesome.

[Reply #17 on:]

... and if it cooked things it found on the street, I'd pay even more for it and invite all my friends over..

Me:  Bender's cookin' Roadkill!
Chan and BigDog:  Oh buddy, I'm there!

(Nah it looks like a dyslexic carp)

If it was associated with the shows production team or the shows promotion department it might be worth that much. But the fact is it was made by a Las Vegas hotel's crappy prop department, and it shows.

i would buy the slot machine if it were cheaper but the bender is crap and the guy selling it says it is the ONLY lifesize bender. Wrong!. i saw one last month in tower records.
Oh and how can that bit of crap cost $10,000 it think whoever made it ripped them off!

Sound about right for a prop actually...it can be surprisingly expensive. The entertainment industry certainly charges a lot (I've spent $10 000 on one stage light), and as well as material costs, you've got labour, design work, paint shop costs etc.

Props (speaking from theatrical experience) cost a load, which is why most people try to beg or borrow them (it wouldn't be unusual for me to pay around $4000 for a simple custom made prop).
