This is a lazy thing to do! I mean most of their pieces are rendered 3D printed sculptures, except may CS Moore, who sculpts traditionally. They could have simply adjusted the size.

I hope they address the Bishop size issue sooner than later. That's a pretty big screw up.

Not sure what happened with Bishop, I'll look into it. Colossus is in stores now.

Thanks Zach. Are Colossus and Cyclops still in the same 1/6 scale as the prior Marvel Premier releases? Looking forward to both, they look great.

Marvel Premier is usually 1/7, Milestones are 1/6. If Cable is 1/6, he is large, but he's kind of a large dude.

Not sure about Daredevil and Moon Knight, but Hobgoblin and Green Goblin are NOT 1/6, I don't think. Psylocke and Rhino, no. Sabretooth, maybe.

I have very few of these in-hand, besides Elektra and Black Widow, who are both 10 inches. I don't think they're supposed to be 5 feet tall.

We're not going to do a new run at a different size, if that's what you're asking for.

Thanks for the reply Zach! Yeah Cable is like 6 ft 8. He appears to be the same scale as the Premier Venom, the companion Deadpool and Domino statues which I own and advertised as 1:6. Looking at the dimensions on Colossus he should be the same scale as Cable, but I will not know until I have them side by side. It is a shame Bishop got downsized, although he looks great (love that base) so plan on picking him up as well.

Bishop is advertised to be 16 inches and its written even on the box.
The actual statue is only 12 in...the 4 inches would have made the difference in making this piece truly awesome.
Sabretooth and Mystique are on-scale so is Deadpool movie version.

Bishop is 6 ft and 6 inches in height according to Google only 2 inches shorter than Cable.

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I am no lawyer, but I feel like saying it's 16 on the box and only ends up being 12 seems like false advertising, no?
