I wish SS would take the final payment already! I can't wait for this any longer.

Just change your flex pay to one payment. When it arrives and is shipping you'll get charged and get it a little sooner.

Need to see Bane next to the Batman PF before I pull the trigger.

The Batman pf is kinda Big for 1/4 scale so don't expect him to be too overpowering unfortunatley. I am keen to see the comparison myself.

If you take a look at the last two Sideshow lives, They are both on the shelves behind Susan albeit at different shelf heights you can still tell Bane is massive in size compared to Bats. Although, I don't think their height differs much if you reference the website.

Nailed it.

Although this Bane PFF is going to be sought after (its a Martin Canale piece, you know), it isnt the ULTIMATE Bane. It needed 3-4 inches height-wise to seal the case. To become the grail of grails. It needed to DWARF Batman PFF. Yes, we know, we know, that height does not equal size or girth, but you know my example of Arnold and Danny DeVito with Arnold sitting down and Danny standing up. NO fear, zero intimidation. The moment Arnold stands up and TOWERS over Danny, case closed. So HEIGHT for human perception PLUS MUSCLES = Fear = a villain to be afraid of. This is the nature of humans and their perception of fear.

Nevertheless, the sculpt is marvellous and its going to appreciate in value. Easilyyyyy......And as a DC-junkie (we, true geeks, have always been mainly DC-junkies, DC > Marvel easily), i POed this. I need it for my collection.

That makes little to no sense, 3-4 inches tacked onto the figure makes him like 9ft. - 10ft. tall, which Bane is not. These are scaled still, so Bane is listed at 6'8" tall. SS Bane is crouched and on about a 1 and 1/2 inch base and stands 23" to the top of his head. That makes him an Estimated 23 and 1/2 inches tall for the figure (adding the crouch back in and subtracting the base) which in scale is about 7'8"-7'9". So he's already over sized to compensate for Batman and adding any more would make him ridiculous. If you add 3-4 inches to the base it's just pointless.

If you really need him Above Batman, put him on a riser and be done with it.
