Canceled. And they don't have plans to make any Heath Ledger Joker statues so far due to license reasons.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Based on their Star Wars Unleashed line, these statues will have dynamic action poses with environment bases.

And I agree on the pricing. $150 seems to be the minimum standard on their 1/10s nowadays but these keep selling.

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

That’s what made me stop and start choosing ones I really wanted instead of entire set.

Mr. Freeze was announced fairly recently and he was $120. Think I got the Bane for $125 and he's pretty beefy.

But yeah, I look at the X-Men standalones and get a little worried.

I guess these are more of the action pose diorama statues. I prefer the museum pose statues they used to do.

I received a PM. Cancelled. Damn shame. Money saved at the same time. It would have been the first Nurse Outfit Joker Statue, all be it 1/10 scale. Imagine a 1/4 scale or 1/3 scale. Would the demand be present? i think so, such is the pulling power of Ledger.

I mean am in the minority here? Maybe paying $150 for a 1/10 statue is the norm today and maybe other people are okay with that, idk.
I really love what IS is doing but to me the appeal of a smaller scale was to build a big roster and save some money. But now with these prices almost doubling, I have to be choosy as if I were buying a 1/6 line again

I collected Gentle Giant maquettes for about 5 years or so, then about 10 years aho I gave them up. Was cool at $40.00 to $70.000 a piece but when they got to $100.00 I was like no thanks. Can't use the word cheap with statues or shipping now.

Agree. When I first started collecting the MCU figures, they were like $90-$100. Now they feel like they are in the $125-$175 range. I only have a couple to pay for (Black Widow and Iron Man) and then I'm done.
