Forps is back
Borrow money from a pessimist, they don't expect it back.

Dear Master, dear Martin.

I'll write it again and Sideshow MUST listen to Forps. If she listened the Arsham joke of a line would be already cancelled along with that abomination, the new Ghost Rider at the outrageous price of 1100 bucks.

Give this sculpt 2-3 inches (add them to the base) and you have a hit.

Do not be stubborn. You know that "Forps eye" is second to none.

So if you want to sell eg 1500 of these, the sculpt simply needs height in order to be more "imposing", to "command presence". The sculpt is magnificent. The pose, the movement, its uniqueness, the anatomy, all are perfect apart from its height and lack of "dominance".

It is a slight adjustment. Do it in order to avoid an ES of eg 700.

I wouldnt trust that, mostly because I don't think he will break 1k in PO's, as great as I believe he looks. I think he's going to be like 500-600. Mostly due to popularity and kinda overshadowed by the New Ivy.

Ya seeing that Ivy/Penguin were 700, but I am bummed that they didn't include a maskless portrait or at least a battle damaged one.

For me he is getting POd

Yeah, I was hoping for a Slade portrait too.

My guess is as Ivy and Penguin's base(s) are quite intricate / elaborate (overall execution too), that's why that price point. If a Slade sculpt was there and the price tag was $700, guess we would not have minded it.
