Ive bought a lot of characters that barely move the needle for me, and even I couldn't muster any interest to own a Taskmaster in 1/4. I did pick up the very good DST version for less than $50. Thats all the investment I could make in that character.

This Green Arrow though is aces. One of my favorite pieces. Didn't realize it had grown to be so collectible, but its worthy of that.

Sideshow Taskmaster PF is perfection, but unfortunatly i have no attachment to the character.

I like the outstretched arm with sword as well. IMO, it's a great pose they gave Taskmaster.

And, yea, Taskmaster is just a degree away from a Hawkeye PF on the Marvel side ...is just a degree away from a Deathstroke PF on the DC side. My opinion.

Yeah, i am sorry Taskmaster fans, but Taskmaster is pretty much poor guy's Deathstroke.

Nah! I don't see it that way. I see them as being equal.

Well, it is undeniable Green Arrow was created way before Hawkeye, but sometimes the one that created later can surpess the Original like Darkseid and Thanos or Namor and Aquaman. I like both Green Arrow and Hawkeye, but i like Green Arrow alot more. I am a DC guy.

That's a very fair point. I'm just beside myself as it seems as though Hawkeye just seems to not get any love from SS...Others have been around the block several times.....but good ole, Mr. Barton.....Nada except for that OG back in the day. SOOOO much more can be done for a modern take with the talent and skill that SS has hired. And especially with Jeremy Renner being recently the talk of the news with his recent accident...one think..
