Guess that solves that.

Please. Anything's an improvement over the Besta. I'd have taken a Hemnes or a Trysil over a Besta.

I agree completely. Edition size has nothing to do with quality. QC is more dependent upon the diligence of the studio producing said statues .

That's true, but maybe most important is the factory doing the work. There are a very small number of them in China, and all the producers use the same ones. Some are better than others. Hopefully Thanos goes to the best one.

People complained of Bane's pricing! What if he was this size and $1295? Again I would have bought but what they did release is such a better decision in regards to space and budget awareness.
LOVED the Darkseid PF as is. It was a classic interpretation of the character before everyone started drawing him as big as a house. The Darkseid PF has that Kirby/Giffen/Perez/Byrne vibe (from the 70's & 80's) and I'm very happy with what we got.

Well, if he has HULK, it's probably Cap, Thor, and Iron Man. Oops! I didn't see that Sonic already replied.

Not adding to beef or what but erick sosa when running around looking for a factory when starting his Prototypez studios said that lower ES does affect QC as they can manage and monitor better a smaller run. Also he said it affects costs also. Having a larger ES makes it much cheaper than making 10.

Maybe im wrong or it got twisted in my memory banks over time but ill try and look for a qoute or something.

I'll figure it out. I'll put him in the bathroom if I have to.
You're absolutely right. They only came in white.

That just sucks. The STUVA was perfect for multiple PF's or if you got extra large pieces.
