I love how this Flash statue came out, the bright colors pop
and all the detail really make this statue look like an art piece and not just a toyish statue...

The paint application is flawless... So far all these DC statues look even better in person then in pictures, they just pop more...

These 1:6 DC Statues of XM might not be as tall as 1:4 statues but their footprint does take up as much space as Sideshow's DC 1:4 statues...

That's a good point that I think doesn't get discussed enough.

I think these 1:6 are great, I just wish they kept the whole line at the same price point. I was all set to PO Green Lantern but it was almost twice the price of Flash. And Darkseid is also at the same price.

I 100% agree with you when it comes to GL. However, Darkseid is pretty massive, I can see the value there and I'm seriously thinking of PO-ing him.

It's going to be interesting to see where this hobby heads moving forward (price-wise); seeing that all around us is going to s#!t these days!

I think the ES is pretty low on Darkseid too (399 I believe).

The majority of the statues have stayed at the same price, only a few have gone beyond it... Green Lantern has a lot of extra pieces that have to be molded due to the construct, so I can see why it's more expensive... If they would of done a more simple construct where it could have be molded as one piece it would have been a lot cheaper...

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

I assembled this last night and it was a pain! So many pieces and none of the lightning bolts are labeled. You just have to match them to the picture. It looks great though.

Dude, I just finished putting it together. Probably took a full hour...I couldn't believe how many little pieces there were! It's a great piece though, feels like tremendous value for what I got.

Very happy with my first purchase from Specfiction (Todd)! Actually, it's my first new statue purchase ever.

Congrats! I didn't attach the console on mine. I thought it made it seem a little too cluttered in pictures I had seen, but yours looks fine there.
