Prefer the classic too. Hope it's an option via SS as I'd like to use up some rewards points.

To be honest, this fell a little flat to me....

Maybe it'll grow on me but either way, very happy to see the reveal all the same.

Think I’m out on this one.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I'm out on this one too. I'm not feeling the musculature, the base design, or the lack of movement (I don't agree with the suggestion that a lightning bolt under a slightly raised foot indicated it).

The pricing is not appealing either. We're creeping up $50 per JLA member here. I know production prices are going up, but Flash is $100 higher than Superman, and I'm not feeling it's showing on the statue. This goes back to my argument about the price increases on Scarecrow vs the "Deluxe" Joker. I'd rather lose the newspaper, the boomerangs, and the ice if it meant a cheaper statue.

These were so good at $250-$350 but at $450 this is way short of the mark, especially after Green Lantern which was one of the best museum posed statues I've seen.

The Flash looks fine...just fine. The base is not good at all imo. The news paper, the yellow lightning, even the boomerangs look cheap...

Also was the newspaper the thing that was supposed to convey speed?

Oniris is still the best in 1/6 imo.

Classic all the way! Hopefully it sells quicker than the other and they notice. Ha.

Also loving the standing, museum pose to match the others.

Now we just need Aquaman.
I hope they don't make it look like he's underwater or if so, just standing so it'll still look like he's standing with his teammates. No floating hair please.

Standing on the rocks or ruins with blue, translucent waves crashing would be pretty amazing. I can dream anyway.

That classic red is so bright, it's blinding. Modern for me.

Modern for me. The piece looks great. I'm not in love with ANY statue pricing lately, so I won't berate this one. I would have preferred translucent lightning. Or even white/yellow, not the same yellow as his costume.
