Scarecrow looks awesome but I wonder why they opted to release one before a Two-Face, a Riddler or a Penguin. I will not say that I am the biggest Batman authority but growing up and collecting comics and watching shows, I don't recall as much with Scarecrow as I can recall the above listed characters. And if money is the issue, I would think that characters like those would be faster sell-outs wouldn't they? Anyways, just a thought. Regardless, this Scarecrow version does look pretty awesome. Congrats to those who purchased and received theirs.

I agree regarding Two-Face. As for Riddler and Penguin I don't think they are visually that interesting. I doubt they'd sell faster than Scarecrow. Just look at Prime1's Arkham line...they skipped Riddler and Penguin.

Yes Riddler and Penguin are likely higher tiered Batman rogues historically...but I don't think they'd sell well merchandise wise.

Probably an ebay seller who has had buyers nitpick his stuff to death in the past.

I think you are correct regarding the visual aesthetics of the character for certain. I was just surprised based on the historical popularity in order of appearances, etc. as well that we have yet to see those other characters in SS. Particularly since other companies have done so.....even XM with their Samurai line. (which I absolutely LOVE by the way). LOL.

I wish a Talia Al Guhl would be created at some point.

I'd be all over a Ra's al Ghul PF if they ever release one.

Ha yeah so I ended up buying it. I mean I can't tell if it was supposed to be painted or not. It blends in with the rest of the base in my opinion. Glad I pulled the trigger on it cause it will probably be hard to find now since it's sold out at Sideshow. And I'm sure people will be asking crazy money for it now.
