I would say to the general audience he is B tier almost going to a tier because of the animated series. Also to a lot of us black folks he is a high tier. Up there with Black panther and storm. You had general audience members mad that he was not the green lantern in the lantern movie lol

Another glitch?

B tier and I don’t think he would’ve been made it wasn’t for the animated series. Just like how Hawkgirl won the poll out of all the DC characters.

Pretty big assumption.

Yeah I posted on Let your Statue Sideshow that I couldn’t use the $25 promo code for a previous purchase, and confirmed with SS. Someone responded he couldn’t use his reward points. It seems like some of TH you can, or at least able to if it’s in stock.

I ended up ordering through SS. TH would have saved me money in tax and shipping, but I know the C/S with SS is better and more responsive.

I’d be surprised if this sells more than half of its ES of 450 for the EX. Black Adam is cheaper and still hasn’t sold out on the TH site.

PO'd, but like everyone else, I think I would've preferred something in the $350 range. I do worry about John moving at this price point and ES.

But I'll also say, if this JL line continues at this level of quality, we're in for an epic JL team display.

I agree though, I don’t need 4 arms, 2 heads and a squirrel if I could otherwise have a cheaper statue. This line just looks too good to pass up. I might sell the squirrel tho, if anyone’s interested.

Sent you a PM, I am interested!

Kudos to Chad for keeping the prices relatively decent for as long as he did. It sucks how things are rapidly increasing, but it is what it is. We all will have to decide and adjust accordingly.

Not much for Sideshow (yet) but they're operating at a different scale from the others. Pre-orders have also been pretty slow.

Recent 1/4's from Queen and XM are easily twice the cost of this GL and that's before shipping. Rising factory prices are no joke. Things might settle like they have in other industries.
