Re: Is 1/4 the new 1/6!
I like very much the 1/4 figures. Those 1/6 figures are too small.

1/4 will never replace 1/6

All I can say is, so far so damn good for 1/4 scale. Like nova says though, it'll never replace 1/6 scale. Nothing will imo.

Re: Is 1/4 the new 1/6!
I used to love collecting 1/4 pf's since 2006, but after accumulating a large amount (not too mention the space problems) they didnt really have that 'bang this is a big statue' feel to them anymore for me when i looked at them and just felt like any other figure, so ive now narrowed my collection down and thinned it out and turned to 1/6 mainly.

Re: Is 1/4 the new 1/6!
most of the ppl on this board are purely 1/6 collectors, so regardless how well done 1/4 pieces are, that is never going to change. Personally, I have always been more of a 1/4 collector, so that's never going to change for me, but I have a few 1/6 items where a equally good 1/4 version doesn't exist.

Re: Is 1/4 the new 1/6!
Here's the breakdown:
1:4, 1:6, and 1:1 are all top tier
1:2 and 1:3 are close second (only in terms of popularity, ie. how many collectors collect this scale)
1:5 is for the fail
j/k
1:12 and 1:18(3.75") are old school window box figures
the rest are more or less off scales

Re: Is 1/4 the new 1/6!
Whether it is or not, HT is really trying to push this on us, two 1/4 announcements in one day with one lackluster 1/6 which i think is a ploy to boost 1/4 converts.
I personally will only buy one or two 1/4 as they are just too big and expensive, and those will be very iconic characters.

Re: Is 1/4 the new 1/6!
No matter how cheap they push these 1/4 figures I have 0% interest in them. There is just no real state available for them and having figures at different scales looks weird IMHO.
EB made 1/4 figures to try to differentiate themselves, and HT is doing them to restrict market influence from EB. The 1/6 collector (which is the vast mayority based on the poll) gets hurt in the process. I would have loved to have the 1/4 figures that HT announced, but now I will just have to wait for the "possible" 1/6 versions whenever they come out.

Re: Is 1/4 the new 1/6!
For me, I'm starting to say yes. I like the 1/6, but if I can get the same quality but bigger, I'm in. I'd rather have a few less 1/6's and take a handful of really impressive 1/4.
My 1/4 Enterbay T2 is one of the best "figure" collectibles I have. The size is great, and the accessories are made out of real metal.

I dont have the room for 1/4 so i'm sticking to 1/6.

Re: Is 1/4 the new 1/6!
Surely the poll choices should be 'yes' or 'no'?
