the armor parts being separated pieces (with many of those being diecast iirc)+ the base where you can store the pieces+ the figure+ extra hands and faces for the figure are the reason they are so expensive.
don't forget that the myth cloth line is old so you are paying latecomer tax and scalperfag tax

They released one from Omega, it tanked hard, they dropped it.

This. Tons of parts : expensive molds. Also expensive finish.

D.D.Panoramation? Pretty sure they opened new preorders a few days ago and announced some more figures past week or something.

No but it's probably not doing all that hot. When it started they released 4 figures in 2 months.

The next one is up October (just one, Leo) and then the next release is only in January (Dragon and Cancer).

Also pic related is Panoramation Seiya.
