Frankly I blame all the people complaining "another rock rubble base???"... well, fine, here you go, now you get buildings that look like their are getting sucked into a black hole, and giant blobs of melting wax/ice cream name plates (Harley). Congrats on the complaining

That's just stupid talk.
"Don't complain about things you don't like..otherwise you might get something worse?"

So better to just say nothing and accept everything

"Don't complain about force perspective bases otherwise Sideshow might take away bases altogether."

I think a lot of people would be just fine with a black puck as a base. You read people asking for that all the time on here. LOL

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I wish statues would offer that as an alternative regular edition all the time!

I guess, in a way, it's a blessing they aren't doing Spider-Woman now. I would not want her on a base like this.

I'd be down with a puck base if it'll knock off $150-200 off the price

I feel like there needs to be a some option on the poll. I don't like these perspective bases, but don't mind them in general. The Spiderman one looks particularly awful in that picture, but with the right setup, or collector the Miles and Gwen could work. So I'm not against them as much as I'm more against these. So my vote is 'some'

PS - you know, someone could make a killing making custom bases like they do w custom pieces and paint and portraits

Need a 3rd option, Yes, but depends on the piece

Psylocke - Its fine since you can always cover the background lol
Wolverine - No

Spiderman/Gwen/Miles - Yes, I have a feeling most will have to see these in person to be convinced they are worth getting. I'm pretty tempted

I don't want them to use it tons, but I won't mind it now and then for certain pieces.
