After such a long wait, I'd hate to see sideshow put a monkey wrench into the works and deny Tweeter a 1/4 release. I don't see why it would happen, but that possibility does exist. While I remain positive, I subscribe to that old saying, "seeing is believing".

Understood. It sounds like you really want 1/4 scale. Would you take a 1/6 scale Perez Deathstroke piece though? i guess it is better than nothing.

My greatest desire is a 1/4 scale Perez Deathstroke. I'll pick up the 1/6 scale to display with my 1/6 Tweeter Bats & Joker. That said, I desperately need a 1/4 Perez Deathstroke for my 1/4 collection. So, I've got to wait until Tweeter actually has something to show us, and then I'll be anxiously awaiting to hear if there'll be a classic Deathstroke released in both scales. The way I see it, we won't be hearing anything for quite some time. That's why my enthusiasm is tempered, even though Chad confirming a classic Perez Deathstroke is positive news.

I normally do not purchase villains. I do have Cheetah and Poison Ivy and I had Black Adam but ended up selling him (though it is a great statue, I just did not want it anymore). Since it would be a Perez styled Deathstroke, I would possibly purchase this one since it would be in the style of character that I collect (late 70's/early to mid 80's).

If in fact a 1:6 Perez Deathstroke will be made I will day 1 PO. I would day one PO a Perez Zatanna as well. There are many others that would get me out of PO retirement if they were made in 1:6. Custom is not an option since I never see anything but 1:4 scale.

I'd get a 1/6 Perez Deathstroke MAQ as well.

And if available in 1/4 ...will most definitely get that too.

Sounds good. Hopefully the 1/4 comes down the pipe at some point.

It makes for brutal reading.

He's read a whole lot worse...

Back in the day, getting non-A list characters was one of the things I loved about collecting Bowen statues.

To be expected when you start off with the heavy hitters...he mentioned Batman outselling Penguin in the '66 line... He originally said, from what I remember, that he wanted TH to be the Bowen of DC. That's not happening. Not all their fault that the sales aren't there, but saying Penguin might be made down the road doesn't bode well for a true Batman rogue gallery...what should be their bread and butter with DC. That would've sealed the deal if I wasn't out already. There are economic reasons, second thoughts, people checking out of the hobby altogether, but I think the slow drip and the question of how deep they'll go into the character pool (not too apparently) is just as responsible, if not even more responsible, for the cancellations and lack of interest. Turning to 1/3 busts is a misstep...I get wanting to make characters you won't release in 1/6 but...1/3? yada yada

I felt this way but was at least rooting for Tweeterhead. Then I saw the miserable Superman support (it took A LONG time to sell only 350 pieces) and I predicted they would probably only get 5-7 characters deep. Honestly, at this point, it may be a stretch to get to 5. I mean Batman hasn't even sold out yet at 350 pieces.

They should have put that Freeze bust up for PO before Batman. He's the best of the lot.

I hope Chad stays in the game, which i think he will.
Tweeterhead appear to offer top end product.
I wish they would offer more characters that interest me.
I have little interest in busts.

My bust collection amounts to:
1/1 (Hathaway) Catwoman - Infinity Studio
1/3 (Ledger) Joker - Prime 1 Studio
1/4 Bettie Page - I forget?

Admittedly i came close to picking up the Tweeterhead Wonder Woman bust. I considered their Superman bust.
Really, i prefer statues with legs

The Tweeterhead Michelle Pfeiffer Catwoman is the only Tweeterhead piece in my collection.
I am considering picking up the Tweeterhead Elvira 1/4 (cannot decide on which portrait?)
