LOL I do think it's hilarious you copied that word-for-word from someone else on Facebook and posted it as your own comment.

Oh, and there was a LOT of noise on Thanos' price. It's the reason I didn't buy it. Same with Juggernaut.

That's all great and good nice use of a comparable product.

Now let's look at another comparable. Tweeterhead's own 1/6 scale Joker statue they put up for PO about 9 months ago.

The Exclusive was $600 for a 1/6 scale statue 20.5" tall. The 1/4 is $1255 for a 26" tall statue.

The price is 209% (109% more expensive) the cost for the same exact item that is only 26.5% larger (i'm not just talking height but total volume height, width & depth). People went crazy over the 1/3 Prime 1 Predator being 70+% higher than the Big Game Predator and thats an entirely different sculpt with a different base, different pose different details all together, and the details on the 1:3 Museum Masterline completely bow the big game details and accuracy out of the water.

This is literally the same exact sculpt as the 1/6 just simply right clicked and enlarged 26.5% larger for 209% the cost.

Yes I did and even posted that I was going to use his point as I thought it quite valid.

For the sake of etiquette, here's the name of the real author of that comment, Dustin Henderson.

Well, you did now, 11 hours later, after NorthernLad mentioned it.

It's nice but man will it chew up some space. Gotta be a big Joker fan for the 1/4 or the 1/6.

Maybe not wide wide, but it is thick. Like Maria Carey thick. Whoever you put with it will look secondary unless they are thicker.

Yep! I’ll stick with the 1/6
