Currently, Tweeterhead hasn't sold 250 Exclusive Classic Batman statues...when I see these lists of characters I'd be surprised if they sell 25 units of the above listed characters. I know a lot of you are long-time DC readers and love these characters, but I don't think it's a smart business decision for Tweeterhead to make these characters at this stage of the game. The first somewhat obscure character Bowen made in statue form in my opinion was Man-Thing, I believe this piece was 55 statues into the well established statue line. SOURCE: http://resin.wikia.com/wiki/Bowen_Designs I want this company to be successful, if they are able to stay afloat while making these characters, they should do it, but if not...they should hold off until they have more of a following.
I wonder how well the Regular edition statues do. I know batman is 250 only via Tweeterhead direct, but have a lot more regular editions sold since they are listed on 3rd party sites?

Ideally Chad would like to make all these figures. We as collectors would love to 'see' all these characters get some attention. Will the same collectors pony up the cash when they do get shown? I dunno.

It is an ambitious concept. I'll probably be dead before most of these get shown. But Chad's enthusiasm is there.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I actually agree with you. While I love the obscure characters and I ordered Mr. Mxyzptlk, I don't think Steppenwolf before Darkseid is a great choice. I personally was never a fan of the LoSH so I wouldn't get any of these. I just want someone to make the main characters like Shazam, Black Adam, Flash, Gorilla Grodd, Reverse Flash, Captain Cold, Black Manta, Hawkman, etc. that nobody else will touch. I'm extremely excited about Martian Manhunter!

Maybe some of these statues will be available only through TH (and possibly Sideshow) with ESes set at 250 or 300.

The Great Darkness Saga. That was a good read.

I missed this. I'd be thrilled if got even a few of these and Saturn Girl would be my choice.

Others be Andromeda, Lightning Lass, Dream Girl, Dawnstar, White Witch, Duo Damsel, Phantom girl, Projectra, and more.

Me?? I was always partial to the Mike Grell depictions of the LoSH. Those exaggerated, angular fight and flight poses were a dynamic breath of fresh air (at least to me, anyway).
