Prime 1 new52 1/4 Aquaman - Cancelled

Haven't seen a thread on this topic yet so here we go;

It was announced last week - or rather through a comment on FB - by John Pham that the New52 Aquaman in the Darkseid diorama line won't be made. This despite numerous previous posts stating that it would be made completing the New52 JL.

As someone who has PO'd the entire line, I have to say I'm bummed out by the news. Apparently the choice wasn't in P1's hands, although they can't state that all too obviously but if you read between the lines, you can't miss it. Seems that SSC is sticking to their 'never finish an entire line'-mantra.

Ugh. This is the 1/4 Aquaman I was waiting for. Disappointed in this announcement. How can you make the other 5 and not give us this one? I love this costume too. Shoot, this would have been much preferred over the terrible costumed Injustice Aquaman.

Yeah, I'm strongly considering comissioning a piece that can go in line with the others, as to just finish the line...

I don't believe them.

They'll make another Batman in a heartbeat.

They will make another batman because they have the license. THEY cannot make this aquaman because they don't have the license. P1 makes a wide variety of statues and they make statues from many other licenses they are more than just a batman factory.

Ha, I know Sideshow is the one pulling the strings on the New 52 license. I think the numbers just aren't hitting where they need them to be.

And I'll be generous to Prime... They're 75% Batman, 25% everything else.

No Aquaman from P1, no Flash (I think) from SS. I feel for those who waited years to complete a proper JL set.

Out of the 260 pieces P1 has either made or on pre-order status, 24 of those are iterations of Batman. That is 9%.

IF you include Batman-related pieces, that is 47. These will include villains and lines involving Batman in some manner. That is 18%.

Move along, bud.
