Seems like an easy pass on the whole line for me. Also, this lacks connection to Batman. You can barely even see the symbol. Might as well have just made a Man-Bat PF. I like it as a concept, but not enough to spend four hundred dollars on it or more.

The line might just end after Joker. As long as they still put up at least 5-6 comic pfs a year and stick to their classic costumes I'm fine.

People have called for them and they deserve the homage.

But you guys still drive my point home, this line shouldn't have reared its portrait with so much still left ignored.
Great point, I also cringe hearing this line is 1/5 in scale moving even further from the PF line.

Why 1/5 when 1/4 is so much better. Maybe it is a price thing, as 1/4 statues appear to heading towards $550+ more and more.

The Gotham Nightmare line is 1/5 in scale.

I highly doubt HQ is anything but 1/4. Harley is pushed back behind Armored Batman while Black Canary is at the front of the counter.

HQ PF is probably shorter than the BC PF just not by that much!

I missed the follow on live feed on Instagram. Did you watch it?

If HQ turns out to be 1/4 then excellent. As there still isn't an excellent HQ Statue.
DC Collectibles created the best 1/6 and Hot Toys the best figure. Prime1 with their 1/3 statue dropped the ball, atleast by their standards.

Can't decide if I like that the color scheme on the base is the same as the statue.

Ditto.

I love 1/5 and this concept is interesting, but it won't get me to open my wallet. Much like the Artgerm runway series. I'd rather save my acorns for a 1/4 piece I really want.

Where's my GL universe characters? John Stewart, Guy Gardner, Atrocitus, Star Sapphire, etc? Heck, with so many possible Lanterns, why not do a 1/5 series of them that's sure to have a strong fanbase?

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

On Instagram. Cowl head. Actually really cool. Will probably order this after ES gets announced. This may help people who feel it's not "Batman" enough. It also appears in this picture, the chest symbol is a little more prominent.

These are odd to me but it seems like people are digging them.
