I will wait until the reveal of the Ghost Rider.
I?ve considered that one. Would he display well with Bowens you think?

I think it will look good but I don't have Bowen statues. It is about 16.5" from the bottom of the statue to the top of his gun. I could be wrong but from what I know, Bowen statues are smaller than 1/6 scale.

This new Cable is definitely a nicer sculpt but the DST Cable is no slouch. When I first saw it a Conquest Comics in Bayville, NJ I was really impressed. Right around Bowen scale, not quite Bowen quality but close.

Cable is on Amazon right now with free shipping free returns for $170.64 + tax = about $182 all in.

Again, the Koto Cable looks great but it?s tough to justify the cost when it?s 4X the cost of the DST Cable statue.

Yup, agreed.

Especially since that DST Cable looks great too.

That's an insane price tag for a 1/6 statue. I picked up sideshow's EX Cable PF in the aftermarket for $675 shipped.

In europe is the situation worse. The statue cost 750 eur which is 842 usd... grrr

Nowadays I bought on aftermarket a Iron Studios Wolverine vs Juggernaut diorama statue for 660 eur/740 usd, which is massive statue with 22kg beside Cable.
I know the details aren't that good but it's funny want so much money for a 1/6 statue.

This always happens doesn't it people say "omg you guys are enabling these companies to charge more because you accept it"

Remember SS Red Sonja everyone was like OMG the Price...they sold out 4500 of them...

These companies charge what they want regardless of what the consumer thinks...these pieces will sell...it's up to the individual what they think is worth it...1/6 at $500-$700 is going to be the norm...even Tweeterhead are charging $450 now for a museum Flash on a little base.

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

It's insane to think that 1/6 statues are now $500-700 as the norm. That's 1/4 scale for even some current statues for sale like Deadpool, Symbiote Spider-Man, Silver Surfer, etc...

It doesn't seem that long ago that people were flipping out about Sideshow charging $400 for the Sinestro PF. Prices have gotten out of control in this hobby.
