I wish I had the room to display these 1:3 Hush statues but my tallest shelves are only 31"

They should have left Batman alone. Seeing him out of scale makes me sorta lose interest in the line, unless I just skip him and get Ivy and Catwoman by themselves.

Looks great to me and can’t wait to see Catwoman. I hope they don’t make any other changes to Batman. 100% fine as-is.

I guess they're not horrible in this pic which is a little chop-shop version of the pic from the live show. Still not ideal (to me) but maybe just takes a bit of getting used to.

Susan looks out of scale in that pic. Not that I have room for 1:1 scale, anyway.

If you just look at the heads alone, the size diffference is quite obvious, even taking into account the difference in how they were drawn in the comics.

If I'm remembering correctly, Prime 1 not only adjusted the positioning of the body. But they also enlarged the size of the head (like they did with Supes). I guess collectors had mentioned previously that the head was too small for that body? If that's the case maybe the original prototype's headsculpt of Bats was more inline with the women before it was enlarged.

I could be wrong, but maybe instead of enlarging heads, they should've done the harder thing and decreased the size of the bodies themselves. But I guess people also didn't like that Bats physical height was so short either, so......

I really think it looks totally find either way, and at the end of the day I think there is a lot of hand wringing over time for the sake of hand wringing and considering the loooooooooooooong wait there tends to be for statues, I think sometimes "problems" are found that aren't really problems and are just things to talk about for the sake of never-ending conversation. Honestly if these things had like a few weeks time from reveal to shipment, a lot of this stuff would be nowhere near as harped on as it is in a time where normally have YEARS from reveal to shipment.

Anyway.....like I said to me it looks fine. And I'll have no issue at all displaying this next to Superman and Catwoman. And that picture a few up, I see no issues at all. They don't appear out of scale to me. At least nowhere near enough to make something out of it.

That's more or less the popular opinion here, in that the scale is fine as is.

It's just that when I first saw it on the live show, my first thought was that the scale was off when seeing them side by side like that for the first time.

It's probably just because I primarily collect movie related pieces, that I might be (unrealisticly) expecting more realistic proportions between characters; which isn't really a concern for characters coming directly from the comic page.

That said I can't wait to get that Ivy in hand. I think she looks spectacular.
