You can display them with their backs to each other if space allows capes blowing in same direction. Otherwise both facing forward looks to me better due to symmetry.

The issue is with all the capes. Hear me out, this is not a post about which style is better.

First, you have Batman who has only a sculpted cape blowing to the right (and has no fabric version).

Then you have Superman who has a sculpted variant blowing to the left, or a fabric cape you can pose any way you want. So, if you get the sculpted cape version, you have them blowing in opposite directions. If you get the fabric version, then it looks a bit odd have two different mediums (to me anyway).

Then you throw Huntress in the mix, who also seems to have a sculpted and fabric variant. But, with Huntress (because of the wall she's leaning against) either version is going to have to be posed to the left, which again, is the opposite of Batman.

So, the capes are kind of all over the place on this line. Luckily for me, if I get any of the pieces, it would be Batman, Ivy and Catwoman so I personally won't have any issues, but I can understand the frustration for someone who is looking to get all 5 pieces.

Stylistically I actually prefer the sculpted capes blowing in opposite directions. I can be pretty OCD about a lot of stuff, but oddly it isn't triggered by this.

Count me in the same boat. Had fabric on order, sculpted just converted. I like the look of having both sculpted capes together. Fabric is out for me.

For you guys that like fabric capes, how do you clean them? Being new to 1/3, I'm a bit torn on sculpted vs fabric. Not that there are any sculpted left to order on this piece, mind you. Just wondering if I should grab the fabric version, or miss this one altogether.

Yep. Jumped on late so not expecting a conversion. Still torn between the two mediums however.

That's what I did. Got on the waitlist late for sculpted. Decided to grab a fabric locally so I at least I don't miss out. Deposit can be used as credit from my local store. Fabric locally has since sold out. (Australia)

Cleaning : get a case , but perhaps to costly because of size. There is also a small portable blower that works well so I've been told. ( BACS ED 500 model). Use a Makeup Brush for a gentle
regular dusting.
