Exactly. I think Debbie might want to recrunch those numbers because there's no way that base is 3" tall.

Hi!

It's approximately 3 inches.

Did she also tell you Superman is over 7' tall? Based on 1/6 scale a 5" tall base results in a 6'3" Superman. A 3" base results in a 7'3" Superman. She's wrong.

Or she’s right and he’s out of scale.

Basegate.

Seriousl question: As long as they’re all the same does it really matter? I can see if you wanted to display them with Bowen’s and it will be too off.

Then Tweeterhead is wrong in calling this a 1/6 scale line because that group shot of Superman, MM, and WW all look to be done in the same scale and if Superman's off, then they're all off. But seeing as Tweeterhead specialize in 1/6 scale statues and the 20 Tweeterhead statues I already own were accurately done to scale, I'm having a hard time believing that one.

It matters in that these are advertised as 1/6 scale statues. And as one who owns all of Tweeterhead's 1/6 scale classic Batman and Batman '66 statues, I wouldn't be impressed if these statues didn't match those lines. But none of this matters because these DC Super Powers statues are to scale.

Given the base has different height points to it I think it would be important to know from where to where was it measured and what’s the margin of error in her approximately comment. I’m not concerned myself.

[nearmint]

More important than the height of the base is the height of Supes.

I think you can tell just by looking at the images of the statues in front of that guy from Tweeterhead. The one who was on the live FB thing.
