you have to wonder how many statues do they have in their stock that they can afford such a price reduction

The DS statues that were upsized from previously-released statues tend to sell slowly.

BBTS still has the Bruce Timm Harley Quinn for less than MSRP: https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Produ...nDetails/28982

Everyone is dumping the Adam Hughes Wonder Woman for $80 or less.

Mignola Batman is $98 on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-list...&condition=new

Might have to pick up that MigNola Bats if the price keeps dropping. I’d have to repaint it black and gray though.

Need to pick up that Harley. Very happy that I got that Frank Cho Wonder Woman when I did though.

I had to pay almost twice MSRP for it sadly. Thank God for EBay coupons. At first I was put off by the calves but after seeing some YouTube reviews, I knew I just have to have her.

You should pick up Harley. I swear you won’t regret it. It’s one of my utmost faves.

I also noticed that. I guess most people prefer the original piece and don’t double dip. Nonetheless I wish some of the cover girls would cross over and get made as 12” statues.

A lot of collectors (including me) like "matching" statues, so they may prefer the smaller originals that were part of a coherent line.

I wouldn't mind if DC re-visited the Artgerm New 52 Supergirl, though. The face needs to be symmetrical, and they gotta find a way to eliminate the air bubbles that were found in a lot of the hair casts.

I hear that. And yeah I would buy a DC Designed Arterm New 52 Supergirl. Not really a fan of the 2 DC Designer Supergirls thus far — the portrait on the Michael Turner seems amiss compared to the original artwork and I would’ve PO’d the Artgerm Supergirl in her white costume except I hate, hate, hate seeing rods jut out like that.

I once saw an eBay listing for a statue w/o the cape. The pose looks great when it's not obscured by the cape.

Just played around in MS Paint to see what a symmetrical face would look like.
