~$600 for a 1/6 scale statue.....there’s just no chance where all these prices keep going is sustainable. This thing is barely over a foot tall.

It's $540 shipped... I imagine about $100+ of that price is just shipping costs... Shipping prices have gone crazy...

If we are comparing these to PF's I have to point out these 1/6 scale DC statues are more detailed than most 1/4 PF's... Of course if details don't matter to you and it's all based on size then yeah the $600+ 1:4 PF's are the better deal...

XM Studios News

"XM Studios is excited to present our next 1:6 DC Premium Collectibles DC Rebirth series statue, Red Hood! Former Robin Jason Todd parted ways with the Batman over their vastly different approaches to crimefighting, eventually founding his own team, the Outlaws. Immortalized in amazingly detailed 1:6 scale cold-cast porcelain, each painstakingly handcrafted statue is individually hand-painted with the famous XM quality finish.

Size matters, but Quality even more so! The new XM DC 1:6 line is specially designed for collectors who desire more space-friendly collectibles, without compromising on the incredible details and quality of larger collectible pieces. At 1:6 scale, XM's creative direction is to showcase more abilities, powers and essence of the characters in a bold, dynamic and story telling style. The new XM 1:6 DC line will amaze you with the details you don't expect at this scale. Smaller scale, smaller boxes, more affordable shipping and pricing means you can fit more of these incredibly detailed collectibles into your collection!

Death can be a strange thing for DC Super Heroes, especially when it doesn’t quite stick. Just ask Jason Todd. As Batman’s second Robin, Jason died at the hands of the Joker when he was just a child. But he returned to life with the help of a Lazarus Pit and the literal warping of time and reality."

Based on PF sales, I'd say most people don't care about texturing and details. They just want their characters as cheap as possible.

Never understood jackets over costumes. They aren’t as bad as the 90’s trench coats I guess.

I'm not sure why this is $100 more than Flash or Aquaman though?

As much as i like it, XM do seem a little obsessed with brick work on their bases....always just seems a little dull to me.

Also i was expecting some switch out, shame it's just the head.

I might still pick it up, i hope Tweeterheads move towards doing more modern stuff we might see him there instead in a better pose with a better base...
