Yeah that cape is huge for sure. That's why it works better 1\4

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Very Interesting. I wonder would P1 be able to bring the price point of their 1:4 scale statues down in order to be truly competitive with SSC and TH.

Probably the "same" price as the 1/3 because of "shrinkflation". Going downward in scale doesn't really make something cost less to make, as the labor costs about the same - it's more to do with pricing in logistics costs and maintaining luxury margins. But smaller means cheaper to consumers, so P1 must yield to pressure since they trade some goodwill with irate 1/3 customers.

True, I would be more excited if prices were more like they were a few years ago

I think it will be much higher too. Hard to know, but Constantine was not encouraging.

Haven?t heard a peep from them about this for a while have we? Personally I like the new 1/4 Batmans they teased over this remake.

I'm confused as to why some of you always ask for "updates" on P1 statues as to when they're going up for PO, as if that's something they actually do.

All P1 EVER does it 1) Reveal the statue in some kind of video, 2) Put a banner on their page with something along the lines of "Coming Soon," and 3) Months or years down the line, finally puts it up for order. It's not like they give any kind of updates along the way. The only "update" you're ever going to get from them is checking their home page every day and if you see it go up for order...then it's up for order. Or they post on FB like 2 days before it goes up for order. But that's it.
