Only one other shell on the market was produced using studio-owned assets, which I feel accounts for the added cost... You're not just paying for the shell, but also the time taken to research and measure one of the originals.
Something can cost a lot but be a worse value than something cheaper, or it can cost more for a reason. I'm not arguing there is not a reason this costs more at all, and that it doesn't present a good value. I'm just saying based on this one piece, it is significantly more expensive than alternatives and if that carries through, it'll be an expensive build, but it will be a very nice proton pack when finished. But we only know the cost of this one piece really, so who knows. I'm not trying to be negative at all. I think it looks great and it's great it's a available.
