I think the GG pieces are worth it based on detail and scale. They're gorgeous statues, honestly. Well worth it IMHO

Just get em early - I have the Sucker Punch pieces, and with the exception of Baby Doll, I got them all for around $300 each

The only reason I can come up with is, unlike all the examples you listed above, the Honey Trap line is an original in house line and not something GG has to pay licensing fees on. With licensed product you'd have to release a minimum amount of product for it to be profitable so I could see that material taking priority.

Collectors who got in on the SDCC Exclusive Whisper from a few years ago should feel fortunate.
I wanted the original Whisper even though I considered the red version. The homage wasn't strong enough to me. But I would be sick if Gentle Giant's delaying games turned out to be a big joke on people who pre-ordered.

So I see this line they have different scales? The one blond sitting down with the huge cannon gun is 1/6 or 1/5 scale? Is that right? That would be off if the other 3 is 1:4 or are they?

That link is wrong. They are all 1/4, or as GG puts it 18" scale.

I hope so because all the others on that site says 18 inches except that one only.

Go with what GG says, not some retailer.
