I wonder if there will be a "Regular" 1/4th version.
Right now they have the "Bonus" listed as well as the "Deluxe"

Will there be a 1/4th version with no reaper, no swap outs?

This is going in a room filled with 1/4th DC mostly done by Sideshow, a diorama base isn't needed. The skeletons alone are more elaborate than most pieces.

I'm buying either way, just wondering if we think that could be an option.

Well the 1/3 is a pleasant surprise. However it’s seems to be missing the reaper and the wing. Hmmmm decisions decisions…..

Think the point is to include the reaper to justify a 1/3 price for a 1/4 piece. Prime 1 wants their margins.

The regular version was posted on the last page.

I'm floored (not in a good way) that they seriously priced the 1/4 the same as the 1/3.

Damn, that makes the decision harder. That price for the 1/4 version is such a downer ....and that's giving me pause.

The first time I saw the same prices for 1/3 and 1/4 scales I thought it was a mistake...then I noticed that the 1/3 does not have the Angel and I thought how pissed off people will be about that.

Honestly, $1500 for a 1/4 scale is insane even with a large base like that. But the 1/4 scale is a better statue because of the Dark angel behind it.

I have to sick to my theme collection which is 80's and will not be picking this up, although it is a great looking piece... and only 300 ES?

Cool

Yep, this is one of the toughest collecting decisions ever. I want the piece so bad, and love the dark angel, but then on the flip side I think I could get the 1/3 for the same price.

I think he also looks good with the basic 1/3 Zatanna they did that's just now releasing, but then that would cost me another $1,100 for her LOL.

1/4 is the better piece IMO, just looks far cooler

Also I'm sure they could have engineered the wing on the 1/3, but we'd be looking at a 2k statue
