I price guide would be completely irrelevant- I agree. I mean you can have a recasted Hockey Mask blank with an amazing paint job and a FS (wooooo) blank with a mediocre paint job and some people would choose the FS one, and probably pay more! I've seen people buy a 19.99 FS blank and throw on a 2 hour paint job and sell for $150 and that's robbery! I'd rather have a nice non FS blank with a meticulous (Crashesque) paint job for $175... a Hockey Mask is only worth it's paint job as far as I am concerned.Blank undermasks are the same- I've seen some Bohr originals sell for $450, yet you can get second generations online (not painted by Bohr) for much cheaper.... but again, it's about the art work and artist.When it comes to a guide, how much would an ITZ-U be worth? Well it could be worth a grand, but I doubt one would actually sell for $650+. Look at the busts MMFX sells- $600 for one- I doubt if you bought it you could resell it for $300. I have a Part 3 bust and it's a great sculpt, but the paint job is mediocre at best and definitely not worth it.
