Both He-man & Skeletor have fabric/leather for the cape & Kilt,so why isn't considered a 1/5 PFF?
I'm under the impression that a PFF has a peice of fabric,the only one that's fully sculptured is Spider-man.

As long as the price fits in line with the scale. When you guys charge $399+ for He-Man and Skeletor, it's not going to seem like it to some.

I hope to be wrong on my expectation.

The Premium Format name is only used for 1/4 scale items. Premium Format no longer has to be mixed media items (that changed many years ago). Simply, almost all pieces (in mixed media or not) that are 1/4 in size will be names Premium Format Figures (with some exceptions here and there).

The He-Man pieces are in 1/5 scale and as such will be called statues and not Premium Format Figures.

Been a fan of 1/5 even before the Mythos line. Still large enough to command presence, offers plenty of detail and it affords some extra space for the rest of your collection. I'd get everything in 1/5 if I could.

Not from when I used to have Ben Kenobi Mythos, Darth Maul Mythos and WoW Arthas statues. They all ate up just as much real estate as the 1/4 PFs.

I like the 1/5 scale as well though. Don't have any problems with it as long as its priced accordingly.

If they were 1/4, I would still own them.

I get your point...especially Ben Kenobi with that massive space eating cape.

Any idea when the preorder will for He-man and Skelator? Before or after the end of the year?
