Which will slow me down on these. I really wanted these to top out at $450. It is what it is.

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

yeah with the awesome elaborate bases they are giving these, I expected them to around $500 (USD). The real issue is going to be shipping... or is there a way to get them to the US for cheap like $30-$50? or are the going to be $200+?

Ballpark is $449 I believe with a discount of about $50 if you pay in full. When I get pricing I’ll post here immediately

If Joker, or any other XM 1/6, is near $516 -- I am out.

No way will I pay that, regardless of how much a love a statue. Or the amount of swapouts. Because that rate is almost two Tweeterhead pieces.

If they are in the $250-$300 range, then we are talking.

European retailers seem to markup based on shipping and duties cost to them. So lets hope its at least $100 dollar less for the North American market

When it comes to Joker, I'll be very content with Tweeterhead's. Plus, we already know he looks great with their Harley.

I really like the XM Supes, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Flash and Green Lantern. Not sure about Bats, as once again, he appears to be low profile like the new SS PF and the P1 Hush. Also, the gargoyle base doesn't look right to me. Looks like it's lying on it's stomach in a Beach Blanket Bingo pose, with Batman riding its back. Really awkward.

^^^ I don't collect 1/6th anymore, but that Tweeterhead Joker is perfection!!

I also can't see how XM's 1/6 line at the ~$500 price point is going to have mass appeal. The large elaborate bases are very cool but people who collect 1/6 usually have limited space and are more price sensitive. These bases are going to take up 1/4 scale space. I think XM has to keep these in the $300-range.
