This is a fabulous statue. I like how the he is different from the first and would be cool all in one collection. There is a crazy amount of detail in this. If the factory can get to 90% of that detail it’s a win win. I’m guessing given this level you’re looking at $500. He has way more detail that Teela.

But I’m gonna go ahead and say it - I miss the simpler bases. I like Starfire bc it’s simple and all about her. I like Catwoman bc it’s just her posed on a roof.

I know this is the direction of the new line. And I think all of the Batman pieces will look amazing together. I just really hope with the MOTU line the bases stay simpler as they have been.

I don't think it will be that much, guessing under $400. Maybe $350-375? If this is the high water mark for base complexity, I'm good with it. Some simpler, some more complex, but don't go overboard and lose the figure in the middle.

Not sure how good they will match overall design wise.
XM practiced more realistic approach in their Batman (colors, textures). But regardless - this Joker is much better then XM one IMO.

There won’t be a better option in the scale any time soon.

Both Superman and Black Adam were at the $350 range. With the oversize base, I'm going to say $400.

Yeah, I'd say $400 minimum unfortunately. Hopefully TH will surprise me though.

Supes 2.0 is 350 and that base couldn't be more simple. Also, notice, they are calling this Joker a "Deluxe Maquette"

I agree with at LEAST $500. That Oniri Flash is $500, and for what, plastic lightning and a light up feature?

I feel you're probably getting closer. This is huge. It's hard to gauge it by itself. Full 1:6 scale figure, chair, and heaping bags of money.

I do agree with you Demona, I do like a little bit more of a simpler base. I guess looking at the three statues that so far I have a come out under the 2.0 heading (and I am only thinking DC characters here), poison ivy and the joker definitely have a very detailed over the top base where the superman statue did not so I do think a lot of it is going to be based on the character.

However when it gets to the point where the base overpowers the character then that’s where I would hope that that would end up getting changed. I hope it doesn’t get to the point where the character is enhancing the base as opposed to the base should be enhancing the character
