I was very late to the game on collecting DK so I am excited to get this great-looking set. Who knows if InArt will do one (I hope they don't since I'd rather them concentrate on their other lines like LOTR, HP, etc and this HT figure looks plenty good for me. Instant PO!

This is great news from Joost. I had given up on adding a Pfeiffer Cat Woman to my collection because none of the third-party figures on offer looked good enough - just tell me there won't be any pleather (ot other material that will flake if you look at it wrong) and it will be an instant PO.

Extremely impressed with these new sculpts. Can't wait to add Riddler and Penguin to my gang of villains :) I hope they can do Newmar to complete the core set.

SO disappointed in Battalion Toys! I am an eclectic collector - I like a wide range of shows/films and try to represent as many different franchises in my collection as possible rather than going “all in” on one or two. So, when I saw that TB was going to create one of my favorite recent...

I've been burned too many times by companies (like QMx) starting lines (Firefly, Princess Bride) and then abandoning them after one or two figures, so EXO's approach here is costing them a lot of my business. If I had the TWOK figures in hand, I'd be very likely to keep building y ST collection...

Artisan versio was an easy pass for me - the Standard gives me everything I need. I'll have him in his had, so the real cloth bandana won't be missed and I don't I'll pose him in a way that will show off the back of his head, so all that braiding work would likewise be lost. I also don't want...

I know there are products that under-perform and they get stuck with hundreds/thousands of units warming shelves in warehouses - but why intentionally limit the number of a piece like this (that any idiot could have told them would be a hot seller) and intentionally make far less money. The Bay...

InArt produces a superior product. While it’s true that they won't be a threat to HT (they only release a few figures each year, their wait times are long and the products are very expensive) they ARE a large part of the reason that HT products have gotten better and that’s a win for us all...

The only thing that worries me about the HT release is the weathering - it looks like they really went heavy-handed on it.

I wondered why she wasn't produced back in the day as I thought she was one of the more interesting characters in that film. I'm not actively collecting Marvel but, I will make an accepting for this one.

Dune is not a license that interests me at all so it's an easy pass. I know IA is trying to expand but I wish they would focus on continuing a few lines (LOTR, Batman, HP) rather than doing one or two from a truckload of lines that they have no hope of actually completing in our lifetime.

Hard pass for me.

I absolutely agree with you on the Julie Newmar Catwoman - It would be a crime to do Joker, Penguin, Riddler, Batman and Robin only to leave off Catwoman and it would really have me second-guessing whether I was to collect the others if I can't have a Newmar.

I've enjoyed several of Pascal's roles (Last of Us, and the first season of Mandalorian) but ... no.

It's a simple equation - as long as companies are going to keep jacking up the prices, collectors are going to keep demanding higher and higher levels of accuracy to justify the cost. Competition is a great thing in general - it tends to drive down costs and drive up quality because companies...
