I just think they realize that the general masses still has this werid outlook when it comes to comic books. You might catch a few new readers but in reality most of them just stop collecting after a while because it costs so much and the writing just isn’t the way it used to be(imo). As far as She-Hulk is concerned, Sideshow loves making the ladies and if her new book is popular, this statue will get made sooner than later.

She's been there a while but yes the Legacy thing will probably remove her from the main stories. It's not a bad book either, little bit of a slow burn but the way they did her after civil war II was interesting.

I think there is a right and wrong way to kill off and replace characters. Like i honestly think there was no need to bring Barry Allen Back ever, the guy died protecting the Multiverse. That's an esteemed death and Wally was a great replacement and his book was doing great. When Bruce Wayne died fighting Darkseid, even though i disagreed with the way it was done, and then they replaced him with Dick, hey they could have let that go, it was fitting.

But some of these deaths, you can't just off characters that are rich in history, you have to give them a proper send off. Let them die in some huge universe altering way, and replace them with a proper candidate, not some "newb". It's the only way comic nerds will ever let it go, and sometimes not even then.

I didn't love either SS or XM quarter scale pieces and while I like the Hughes comiquette it doesn't fit in with the rest of my stuff.

All in for a new She-Hulk!
Couldn't agree more. She-Hulk is definitely a character I would eventually love to add to my collection.

It’s not just comics. Nobody wants to see fictionalized characters wrecked, dead, or drastically altered in any format. You ever met someone that said Rocky V was their favorite??? Same for books. Misery ring any bells?

Comic publishers are naive about how the public feels regarding Iconic characters. Once upon a time they would just create new ones...

Some pf had leaning issues. But if u be a good one, it's the best she hulk out there. Can't believe that was $290 back then. Todays price would be over $500.

Love the SS PF but don't have it. I have the XM and while I dislike the head pictured in this thread, the Byrne one actually looks much better.

That looks great pun!

It was funny reading back on my comments in this thread.

They end up making the piece I wanted but it was only 1/5 and I got it anyway.

Great looking PF
Great looking upgrade

If Sideshow were to revisit this piece (which will never happen) they should add extra bulk to her arms and make her green legs visible, and make her legs more bulked out than they currently are. It's about time Sideshow made another 1/4 PF She Hulk

This pose:


This She Hulk:


Not as bulked as:
