Speaking of life-size busts. Why have they never (other than one Star Wars character) ever done a female in a life-size bust?

Sorry off topic, but the talk of life-size busts brought the question up in my mind.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

They should’ve made Wonder Woman to go with Batman and Superman.

It’s even more ridiculous when you put in in numbers. I really wish SS make the characters you listed, so I can get out of collecting Sideshow. Unless you are fans of only 7 characters sideshow seem to think DC universe is solely made up of, it is really frustrating and disappointing most of the time there is a DC reveal.
They're at the 600 dollar price point, they are simply catering to the lowest common denominator, therefor the most popular characters will be shown endlessly.

Look at the new animated Trinity! 7 months after a new PF Trinity!

Trust me I want all those characters, but please don't forget they have released more DC PF's this year than ever before.

I would also use that recent DC promo video as idea of what SSC and DC are looking for in the future lineup.

Notably there is two different Robins (pictured in the background) but not a single Nightwing.

Also very notable is that they showcased almost all Heroes sans Harley and Joker. (Although there is also a very noticeable Sinestro Corps Arkillo behind Hal Jordan)

Tons of Heroes though Shazam, Flash, Martian Manhunter, Hawkman...


Edit: sorry for the lack of context at first, the thread is moving fast.

If they reboot the DC PF line ONE more time, I am out. As much as I like the WW, I think the revisit/reboot of Trinity, Gotham sirens, and Joker PF was the last straw. I won’t have the patience to wait for the characters, whom I am not even sure SS will ever tap on, I want anymore. I also think it’s impressive lol how they made so many Batman statues but there are NONE, not even ONE that I like!

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

All in all, I think all 3 of these look really good even if they aren't 100% accurate. Assuming these are in the same-ish price range as their avengers assemble line, I will definitely pick these up.

Yeah, pretty sure I would have purchased a gorgeous Wonder Woman life-size bust.

Same. If they were priced similarly to Campbell line I'd buy them locally
