If the size does not fit, you cannot place the statues side by side. It just doesn't look good.
I also had to learn first.

That makes sense. I don’t collect lines, just what characters I love. I have the prime 1 Arkham knight catwoman next to the original dark knight returns Batman, also next to the Hush Huntress. I’ll be placing poison ivy in between the cat woman and Batman since huntress would block Poison ivy with the way my room is set up. Ivy being bigger or smaller won’t bother me, as long as I have a cool representation of Ivy in my collection I’ll be happy.

Statues, any statues especially these kind are given a particular scale. Such as 1/4 scale, 1/3 scale or even 1/2 scale. For example the 1/2 scale Prime 1 BVS statues of Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman. Each of these are different heights from each other, but they’re supposed to be half the height of the actual actor/character (more or less, more in Prime 1’s case). But even if the scaling is slightly off, as long as this difference is consistent in the line, it’s more accepting as this keeps their relative height difference consistent with each other. For example Gal Godot isn’t taller than Cavill or Affleck, and you wouldn’t want the Wonder Woman Statue to be taller than the Superman or Batman as that obviously would be incorrectly scaled (relative to each other).

Exactly, and to expand on that comparison their 1/2 Joker is quite undersized and looks out of place next to that trinity as a result.

Yep I agree.
As an Australian I really wanted to buy that Heath Ledger Joker statue, but because of the size discrepancy with my 1/2 scale BVS Trinity I decided against it.
I had always thought the BVS Trinity was overscaled, but when I did the math a little while ago on this forum, I found that it’s not overscaled by much, if at all.
Now I’m slightly worried about the Queen Studios 1/3 scale Joker, but given that he’s sitting down I’ll give him a bit of leeway. Plus he’ll easily fit in a Stuva cube, which for me is a benefit as I much prefer for mixed media pieces to be behind glass if possible.

And being condescending while totally ignoring my points is mature?
Well I hate to be the bearer of bad news but you never left the playground. You're knee-deep in it. All by yourself.

Poison Ivy Statue by Prime 1 Studio
Isn't this one supposed to come out this month? (after the mandatory multiple postponements..) Hopefully, these companies won't start using the COVID-19 excuse for every possible delayed piece out there, going forward into the next couple of years or so!

Just received my notification from Sideshow collectibles that they
will have Poison ivy in their warehouse on Friday August 21 at which
time they will charge me for the remaining balance.
I'm pleasantly surprised that the shipping charge is only 76 dollars
to my home in northern Maine.

Yes! I have not received my notice yet but it is great to hear that it's coming! I wonder what the charge will be for Canada!
P.S. Did you receive your notice on Friday?
