I'm not even sure if, scale-wise, the Spider-Man Vs. Hulk would be "bigger". Definitely, Hulk is massive in that statue, as he should be, but do you think Spider-Man is the same scale as Batman in this piece?
Yeah, the recent Sideshow dios are not that big, but the prices are pretty high. I would probably pick up their Indiana Jones/Mola Ram dio if it were at DCD prices. But, with Sideshow selling it for a whopping $300 and it appears to be in the same scale (if that) as this Batman Vs. Croc piece... I currently have the $300 Snake Eyes dio on order and will have to see if I can justify keeping it... especially when I glance over at this amazing Batman Vs. Killer Croc and remember I paid $162... I'm sure I can forgo the exclusives on some of these Sideshow pieces and get them discounted, but even after discounts, they will be way more expensive than $162.
But, this is what people are talking about when they wish DCD would start doing pieces involving some of their 2nd/3rd tier characters - Sideshow does pieces like that with a way lower ES and charges more. For some odd reason, it seems that the general perception is that DCD is overpriced and Sideshow/Bowen are some kind of great deals. If someone can convince DCD to do a Mister Miracle Vs. Steppenwolf dio, maybe they can do an ES of 500 and charge you $300, too.
of course they can let your family stay with you and stuff .
