This would be a hostile move against collectors who have the original. This is a hobby in which uniqueness is a major portion of a total value of the item.

Yeah, there are some pieces I'd snap up if certain companies ever re-released them, but it would undermine the collectors of the initial run and stain the companies reputation going forwards. Scarcity, limitedness, rarity -- whatever you want to call it -- these are the things that also excite collectors, and I think they'd be peeved with a re-release.

I can't imagine double-dipping on another Joker since I'd rather save the room for rogues or JL, but I'm glad others can add a TH Joker to their collection soon.

Would of preferred a Riddler, Penguin or Scarecrow statue.

Still can't believe there's no Flash statue.

I'm wobbling on dropping the line. Was hoping more first time characters would be mixed in with the re-boots.

Excited to see this. I just hope Tweeterhead doesn't become Sideshow Junior.

I can definitely understand and agree with what you are saying about first time characters but I do think that they wanted to release (or re-release) characters that would be big sellers from the get go. I do think however that it is time for both Flash and Aquaman (which I think we are going to see one of those characters this year I believe).

If seeing these re-do's of characters draw more business to Tweeterhead to where down the road we will see more first time B and C characters produced then I am fine with that.

I think it would sell well even as a reissue, but would ultimately be a horrible business decision.

Yeah, that seems to be the plan. Bowen did the same...have to sell the big names to support the smaller ones. I doubt this'll be the last Joker.

We know there's a Scarecrow coming...I'd be surprised if the others didn't follow at some point.

LOL Tweeterhead has already done it with the Julie Newmar 1966 Catwoman. Have you guys forgotten the Ruby Edition?

That's a fair point...hopefully that's a one-off. TH's audience has grown since then...many more eyes on them. Many more collectors involved. I think doing that now would be a huge issue for them.

I’ll be building a Batman rogues gallery starting with Scarecrow. Hopefully they’ll do Freeze, Bane, Two-Face, Man-Bat and Firefly. Call me weird but I’m not real crazy about the Joker. Over exposure I guess.
