Apples and oranges as far as I’m concerned. I don’t see these pieces competing with one another either. Speaking for myself I don’t collect 1:4 scale DC product as I don’t have the cash or room to display the amount of characters I’d like in my collection. The only other piece I possibly see competing with this is XM’s Rebirth WW, but even that might appeal to a different market as it’s a different rendition of the character.

That would be great, but I understand the commitment to quality can cause slight delays.

Also availability and price point.

My understanding is XM will be made to order so anyone who isn't aware is either out of luck of paying second hand prices.

I think Tweeterhead is among the best value right now getting such quality pieces out under $300 while XM seems content at the same scale going over $400.

I appreciate both approaches. Tweetterhead's take is more classic and comic-booky, while XM is going for a more realistic look with larger bases. There's room for both.

Yeah, I think statues with the same costumes compete against each other, whereas people will buy multiple statues of their favorite characters in different costumes.

Agreed. I have both on order.

Tweeterhead is taking the Bowen approach. More like the comics than artist interpretation.
