DC Designer Series Statues General Discussion - Page 218

It appears that so far they’ve only put out items that DCD already had in production. They’ve announced nothing new under that banner, and nothing that was prototype shown at conventions. I’m thinking more and more that we’re not going to be seeing anything else.

Unfortunate, but I'm starting to think the same.

Ordered! Thanks! Nice to see it's tentative for July, and they have boxed photos already. I forgot what it was like to order from DCD and get a statue in 5 to 8 months.

Also, that JSC Harley seems to be the first statue they've solicited under McFarlane that wasn't already shown, or wasn't already a statue in a different scale. I know it was in development for some time based on artist's social media, but maybe this gives a bit of hope that they'll continue with new statues. Probably not at the same monthly rate DCD was doing them at, but still, I'll say I'm more hopeful today than I was with my last post.

The BW&R Harley's have been overall pretty terrible IMO, quality wise. I'll be interested to see if anything changes with this one.

Funny how they've kept the DC Direct name. Does McFarlane intend to make it a label of theirs, or perhaps the packaging was already done for this when the company went under?

Yeah, I haven't seen very many good pictures of the Harley line. Paint is usually pretty bad. I never picked up one myself, only the Black & Whites, but I've seen a review where sizing on the Harley ones is a big issue as well.

I'm a bit worried on the Catwoman because of all the cel-shading. Hopefully she turns out as clean as previous designer series. I don't know how it works with factories when companies change hands.

Really hope this gets the 1/6 scale treatment.

That Catwoman looks really nice. The Harley...well, it looks like there is a lot of room for sloppy paint apps on her face.

I think the only other one with the cell shading was Supergirl and it looks clean from what pics I've seen. But yeah, who knows with the change, what we will get. Fingers crossed!
