HKD 4200 which exchanges to roughly $550 USD, according to their FB page
Yeah, its HK$4,200. They're taking deposits now for HK$1,000. I might head to their shop in the coming few days to have a looksee, and probably put a deposit down. I'll be sure to ask if they're willing to deal with overseas customers and let you guys know. I have a few other questions for them too...

Hong Kong is a nice place and visiting this store looks like a good reason to go back.
So, I went back to the shop and lo and behold, they got the prototypes out on display! Yay!!
I was allowed to take some pictures with my camera phone so go ahead and take a look below. Some stuff they had were the Iron Patriot and Captain America statues with phone chargers.
They also had on display the Loki scepter and the arc reactor and box from Iron Man 2. They also had the regular Captain America shield on display in the window on a stand, as well as the Stealth shield from The Winter Soldier on a wall plaque.
The guy reminded me that these were still pretty much prototypes so the final product might differ a little bit in the end. I was quite pleased to find out that the quality of the aluminium had a good feel and that the back of the shield seemed pretty much spot-on with the movie props. Unfortunately, I wasn't allowed to handle the shield (otherwise everyone would want to and the guy would probably have a riot on his hands with a couple of rabid fanboys pawing him and the shield).LOL!! I got a good feel though after taking the photo. He said the shield was pretty strong and not too heavy (he said around 2-3 pounds but I'm guessing he meant kilos).

The shields come with both the stand and the wall plaque apparently (again, this is what he said but I'm seriously doubting that both will be free together with the shield). The wall plaque has a little white button under the sign that turns on the back light behind the mounted shield. Pretty cool.
Oh, ignore the price you see on the shield in the above picture. The shields are going for HK$4,200 each. Pre-orders get 5% off (HK$3,990) and members get a 10% discount (HK$3,780).
Shields are estimated to be available at the end of the year.
Did anyone snap pictures at their both at SDCC? I've heard they're doing some Guardians replicas
