I've said this before 1/6th will make a comeback and frankly i saw SS Avengers assemble at SDCC together and from a scale perspective they looked awesome and had good presence at 1/5th. It's great to go 1/4th, 1/3rd etc. when pricing is stable but right now pricing isn't at all stable. Why do you think even XM has a 1/6th announcement? These companies know that the 1/4th elite buyer is going to scale back cause of pricing and the smaller scales bring in the collector and the casual buyer. Tweeterhead is rocking 1/6th right now. They might be turning into the DC Bowen. Eric Sosa got the 1/6th Marvel. Kotobukiya is out there and XM like I mentioned before. I know this doesn't help those 1/4th or bust but I'm seeing the writing on the wall.

I like 1/6 or 1/5 scale honestly... they're perfectly size for large team setups.

Well let's be honest about the XM 1/6th DC announcement. They only went 1/6th because they couldn't find a wsy around SSC ww DC 1/4 scale license. It wasn't their initial intention.

They already have more comic version DC statues than what Sideshow had this year.

I must say aside from the price Forps was spot on this statue. Also thanks ss/ Harbottle for the set Es and ex or fail head. That was the icing on the cake for me.

What aspects of the COH and its chemistry with this statue make this an Exclusive or fail?
