Do you think this we will get the comic Aquaman statue to go with the rest of the DC ArtFX line or just this one?

Tough to say. Even though the current logo says ArtFX, the Justice League statues wound up being the smaller ArtFX+ 1/10-scale. I think only Wonder Woman got a 1/6-scale statue based on the last couple of live-action movies, and I'm sure Koto doesn't want a repeat of what happened with the 1/6-scale Flash, sitting on Barnes & Noble's shelves until they were clearanced for 50% off / 75% off / $2.

Edit: Just checked, and Koto's website still has 1/6-scale Deathstroke in stock. That statue was released in 2013.

I’m betting the IS Aquaman from SDCC is going to be hard to beat.

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.

Two things, first I have the Flash because I wanted to complete the line but man is it bad. Color is wrong, pose is just meh and quite frankly should only be a $50 statue.
Second, Deathstroke isn't really that popular a D.C. character to begin with and that sword placement, what were they thinking with that??? It's so big that it's nearly impossible to pose the piece nicely.

Just my .02

Yeah, that huge sword makes him look like a character from Final Fantasy.

Yeah I have the Flash as well. Got him cheap to complete the set but I'm looking to switch him out eventually. Was hoping for a good Aquaman and MM from Koto to round out the JL but since this line is always in limbo I'm more on board with what TH is doing.

Comparing this line to TH is apples to oranges, these are around $125 and the TH statues are more then double that.

And the first three were stellar for the money, and even GL.

I'm hoping for a Mera that matches their ARTFX Wonder Woman.
