I'm not in any rush, but would really like these products. I find the store incredibly confusing, but I *think* getting a quarter's subscription to Platinum Club would be cheaper than just straight-up buying them without PC. But even that's confusing with how to distribute the monthly coupons towards the items. Then there's the part where they're Daz Originals and I've seen countless sales with crazy savings on those, so... could someone help me out here please?

TBH, nobody knows. It is very likely that they will be discounted, even heavily discounted, but it can be tomorrow or in six months. You must not be in a hurry to benefit the best daz prices.
A good solution is to install "daz deal" https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/106296/announcing-daz-deals-browser-add-on
It is a browser plug in that gives you, among other useful things, the price history of every product over a year. This way, you can estimate the best price than you can get for a product and how frequently high discounts happen.
Concerning these products, they are relatively recent and the sales are less frequent, but you can see with daz deals that, for instance, https://www.daz3d.com/electron-city-scenes has been around $3 once every 1-2 month in the last period. So it is very likely that before the end of june you can get this price.
All those items are from maximum October 2020, so seeing them reduced below the PC+ prices might (!) take quite a while. The non-PC+ is reduced between 67% and 72% (or so) with a PC+ account. And with a PC+ account one could use the monthly "$ 6.- off when buying stuff of at least $ 18.-" coupon, which deduce another 30% (if my maths are correct) for them, when being creative with setting the shopping cart.
So yeah, I guess getting a quarterly PC+ account would be worth it, especially as it also gives three more $ 6.- off coupons for Daz Original items and the base 30% off for Daz Original items. So it surely pays for itself.
This.
Also, a couple hints.
1- Next month is June. Last year DAZ started a summer PC+ Sale that provided really good discounts for both new and old items. Fingers crossed they do it again.
2- Even without special PC+ sale every week new items are release and one or more older items from the same PA (usually related) gets an additional 60% off.
Looks pretty cheap right now.
You've already been given the answers so instead I'll compliment your taste! As a huge TRON: Legacy fan, I picked up all of these when they debuted. I wish people took commissions for morphs of male characters, I've got scenes I'd love to illustrate but everyone seems to do G8F only.
Well, I will add that during the PC+ sales and occasionally during other sales, there may be category discounts for PC+ members that allow us to take an additional percentage off of the PC+ price for PC+ items in those categories. The sale is traditionally in October, but last year they also did one in June, so hopefully there will be a repeat this year (unless they're too wrapped up in SP nonsense). For example, the regular PC+ price for Electron City Scenes is $6.99, but during the Christmas/New Year sales and also during March Madness, the price dropped into the sub-$3 to $3.50 range for members.
Never buy a PC+ membership at full price. You can get annual ones for 30% off often enough, but I would hold out for 40% off, minimum. Sometimes they'll even go to 50% off during the month-long PC+ sale event.
They'll eventually be on steep sale again during the year multiple times. Even so, you'll need to be in the PC+ club when those sales happen so you need to at least spend $24 extra for 3 months, or $70 for 12 months, to be in the PC+ to get the cheaper prices.
Sometimes, like today, right now, 21 May 2021 PC+ membership goes on sale so you get discounts on the $24 / $70 price of membership too.
It is the morning of 23 May and the promo on Daz includes some of these items for 50% off if you buy a new item and use a code.
Wait a few or a dozen years until DAZ is about to remove them from the store and then snatch them up for $1 each.
Hi Chiffmonkey. I'm a PC plus member and to give you an idea, they are all priced below 7 dollars for pc plus memebers. In fact 6.99 is the highest price. Most are below 5 dollars.
Looks like all of them are on a "get 50% off the PC+ price without any extra conditions" sale, so getting the longest period PC+ right now to get them might be worth it...
