They should not gauge feedback in here, as you guys are the minority, less than 20 of the same people talking about it. You guys dont represent the majority of us. If they want to gauge feedback, they should do it on facebook, where the majority of collectors are very vocal against plastic.

I dont mind plastic for very minimal areas where it makes sense. But anything above $350 on a 1/4 statue, especially on a portrait, no f'n way. Blurring the lines between a statue, and a toy doll here.
You seem angry.

Same with statues lol. Again, just playing devil's advocate here.
Actually DCD statues are cold cast porcelain... Their action figures and other toys are plastic.
