MOTU started in the mid $400 range, and now we're up to the $700s.

2.0 started at $350.00 and ended up in the $500's. We'll see what this new Darkseid and Catwoman are priced at in 2025 when they go up.

It's crazy looking back and seeing that the Super Powers line, other than Darkseid, were all sub $300. Donna Troy was $225!

Yep, look at Starfire. Amazing, dynamic, large piece for a 1/6 was only $275.

I loved the SP line. I have 6 of them all lined up on one shelf, and they look great together.

For all we know, these busts could be a hit among collectors. I mean, I have seen nothing but praise for their concept art.

That Zatanna bust looks especially great!

I'd be willing to buy that ...and then get it customized to add her legs and a base.

TH claimed that they only had 5 of Superman remaining as of last Friday and said it was highly likely he would be gone by yesterday. Well he's still sitting there as of this morning . . they need to try another tactic. Rant videos and phony numbers aren't working.
What are we almost to 6 months since launch now?

A custom group should start just making legs for all these

My thoughts exactly, for Clayface. If these were 1/4, I would have done the same with Riddler and Freeze.

A good business opportunity, I'd say! They can have a portfolio of renders for legs and bases for folks to chose from.

And it'd be extremely hard to claim copyright against!

The site says 24 left? I don't like that either. What gives?

Yep, I think they used to take half?
Good thing is TH gets to keep more profit by selling the busts only through their site. They can take a chance on more characters that way. Superman will probably be sold out before shipping. That's a win.

I wish TH all the luck with this line. The pricing seems great if it can maintain at the price range. Although this line is not for me since I collect mainly 1:6 I look forward to seeing these in other collectors displays.

Who knows, maybe they will release some of the busts in 1:6 as well down the line.

Or maybe just maybe Tweeterhead will get a 1/3 Full Statue license and break collectors dependence on certain prime international statue producers
