Well yes and exactly, $5 more than 2 PFs released in the past few months. On sideshow’s website, show only PFs and order them from highest to lowest price and see where Penguin falls. Then order from Newest to oldest. Then make the comparison.

I see Mr. Freeze is an outlier, I won't make overall assessments based on outliers.

P1 has a nice, classic comic style Penguin.

Sideshow nailed the pose, body shape and where they especially excelled, the headsculpt.

Sideshow really delivered on this Penguin. Very nice. Great detail and concept. All thumbs up. It's like having an ace up your sleeve to capture some good will from collectors.

As for the comparison with P1, I like both for different reasons. Both rock.

Ah that explains how the sculpt is so good! I hope she does more rogues for sideshow, bring on the rest

I have the trinity she did, am a big fan

The forum isn't automatically sizing down large inline images as of yesterday, anyone else notice that on their end?

Isn't P1's Penguin 1/3 scale?

Yes indeed it is. I much prefer Sideshow's version. The SS portrait just has so much personality and detail that puts it over the top. I can't wait to see how they'll do Two-Face.

Thanks for replying, much appreciated! If you don't mind, any opinion on Secret Compass as well? So far, I have only used Spec Fiction and very happy with them as well.
