Been thinking about getting this... and not getting anything else until the Fall (except maybe..maybe AC Joker) I don't have 1/6 Superman, just the dark blue version Batman and Supergirl but Supergirl is on my computer desk while Batman is part of another display. Pre-ordered Flash... the statue looks very good and WW isn't a must get.. but for like $90?

It's tempting.

$90 was the "bite" price for me. I got it on Amazon for that.

Only better price I have ever seen was at this past SDCC for $85...but then you pay $35-45 to get in, $20-40 for parking and add in gas!!!

So $90 = great price

Getting this WW is definitely worth it! One of the best portrait and sculpt for WW!

The vast majority of my collection is made up of Premium Format statues, but I have wanted to start ordering some smaller pieces as well. I jumped on the Bishoujo train a few months back and I just placed my order for this Wonder Woman piece and the Batman ArtFX statue. I think they both turned out pretty nice. Its just a matter if I wind up liking the quality.

Why is the Superman version so expensive? $329? Would have been nice to get the Trinity, but that is just too much for me, at least for a 1/6 statue.

I didn't realize that Superman cost so much. I do applaud you trying smaller scale pieces, easier on the wallet (usually) and display space. The DC Bishoujos are plain amazing.

Probably because he's sold out, your now dealing with people who probably kept some supply on the side in order to take advantage when they did sell out... MRSP was like $120 I believe...

Here's a Ebay link, no bids yet and it's at $199 with only 15 hours left to go...

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Superman-for...item51d455fcc4

That said, they did re-release Batman Artfx so odds are they will probably re-release Superman again at a later date... NO guarantees but I think given the popularity of these statues they will do a few re-releases

I would be happy if they released Superman again. More people deserve to have that statue. I would be tempted to buy another one to keep in box...
