Thanks, I will consider it. When I get a piece, material isn't really a thing I think about. As long as it stands on a shelf and looks nice, I'm happy.
One thing with me besides space is budget (I have the 1/6 Flash on pre order and it might come out around the same time those Harleys are out-- unless BBTS is way off) So basically I'm trying to spend less while getting characters I like. December-March might drain me, on top with my Amazon Prime renewal in Feb.
When it comes to 1/6- I try to be picky with that size.. I saw the the DST 1:6 Mad Love Harley Quinn in person at NYCC she looks cool, indeed. But I think I'd prefer paying "Koto" price ($109 for Flash) if I get 1/6, you know? But if I had the funds and space, hell yeah.
With the FF pieces, they're cheap, a good size and look like the cartoon, so I can just display the Sirens from my favorite incarnation of Batman without breaking bank and spending around $300 and my FF Ivy already shipped on Friday, so I should pick it up it tomorrow.
Another reason I want these FF pieces is to avoid buying action figures of them from that line. Considering the prices of the figures, the statues are a better deal.
I really want to see "real" pics of that Icons Harley, that digital render is nice but I want a real pic.
It just worries me that I'll be spending around $200+ in December because I've been buying too much stuff throughout the year, but if she looks really good, I might end up getting her anyway, since I like her a lot. But at the same time I'm thinking that they'll have to put out more classic comic Harleys eventually, with the Suicide Squad movie and all... So if I'm low on cash by December, I think the FF Harley and the AA Nurse would be good enough to represent my love for the character, it'll just be a bit less realistic but a ying/yang in a way. One color/cartoony and one with 3 colors but more realistic. Sexy modern Harley/Catoony classic Harley.
And the FF's look bigger than the Icon statues, I saw the B&W Harley by the GL Icon in July and her proportions were slightly bigger. I don't know if thats a cartoon thing or what though... I guess I'll just keep her in my pre orders and hope I have enough by then, maybe I'll rearrange my display to make room- I have a few MGS Kai figures taking up a shelf, but I could always box up Venom Snake, MGS2 Raiden and Liquid and just keep Cyber Raiden and Big Boss on display, but move them.

For consistency i would buy this Icons Harley since it'll match with the Arkham Asylum & City pieces you already own. Then get the Artgerm Cover Girls Poison Ivy & Catwoman instead of the DST FF statues to build a comic style Gotham City Sirens.
If you really like Bruce Timms style & want a piece to match the height of your DC ArtFX statues, there's the DST 1:6 Mad Love Harley Quinn. http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/p...84&mode=retail It'll be made of resin & 12" tall (including base) with an edition size of 3000.
Hope that helps. |
