Psithyrus Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Hado, you could actually get both Scarlet Witch and Black Widow for quite a bit less than Ms Marvel would cost you. I'd go for SW first though, as she's been out for a year now and is probably close to selling out. http://www.sideshowtoy.com/collectibles/marvel-scarlet-witch-sideshow-collectibles-300112/ http://www.sideshowtoy.com/collectibles/marvel-black-widow-natasha-romanova-sideshow-collectibles-300168/ A pic to entice you (not mine): Those are very cool. The Vision and Scarlet Witch together look amazing. Jason (Sufunk) is going to have a break down when he sees the Vision. He had a big man crush on that character. The Vision is awesome! I think I posted it earlier in the thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin76 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Harley looks great, the new green poison ivy looks amazing. Of course once you get harley you need a Joker and Ivy to go with it, then of course catwoman too...it doesn't end No, it doesn't. Right now I'm thinking of ways of getting a Mrs. Marvel so Jess isn't alone Have you seen the new Black Widow? It looks really nice, and it just came out, so it'll cost you a third of what Ms. Marvel would cost. For what it's worth, I no longer play the game of chasing old Sideshow pieces, even though there are a few I really want and would pay the going rate for. Sideshow is putting out so much stuff and the quality is getting better overall despite what some might say, so my rationale is why spend the equivalent of three awesome pieces on just one awesome piece? But that's just me. Just remember it's a marathon and not a sprint, I do need to get the Joker quickly since he isn't getting any cheaper. It's really about priority and who you want the most. Captain America, Iron Man, Thor and Venom are really expensive, I want all of them haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's above retail but still reasonable. And now with the Green Ivy, lots of people are getting a second chance at that sculpt, so it's a good time to lock up the early DC pieces before they get nuts.

F For Fake Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 Got a decently low number (for those that care about such things.) Funny, my Poison Ivy PF is #18. It's not really that funny. It's funny enough for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F For Fake Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 That looks great!! I like your small, vintage looking statues of Harley, Poison Ivy and Batgirl as well! Very cool! Thanks! The Harley and Batgirl are from a line of "Animated" statues that DCD did several years ago (I have Zatanna in another room). The Ivy is a ceramic piece that I picked up at one of the old WB Gallery stores back in the 1990's. You don't see them very often. I always liked the look of the glaze/paint job. Thanks again for listening! I don't have any of those, but I do have this JLU Black Canary... I used to have that one, and wish like hell that I hadn't sold her back when the prices started popping. It's a lovely piece, I just decided at some point that I wasn't going to try to complete the JLA maquette line, so I threw the baby out with the bathwater, so to speak. Very nice piece!

Of course once you get harley you need a Joker and Ivy to go with it, then of course catwoman too...it doesn't end No, it doesn't. Eventually it will have to, as I only have so much space! With the DC pieces, so far my plan is to just pick up the chicks from the Bat universe, but Wonder Woman is very tempting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, expensive as collecting is, space is the main challenge with these things. I have every DC PF so far, with Superman on the way sometime this month, and Sinestro, Wonder Woman and Catwoman on order. Wonder how long I'll be able to keep up with the line before I tap out.

Cascaders27 Posted May 13, 2014 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I preordered the new green Poison Ivy after missing out on the earlier one. And so it begins (I imagine!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the problem never goes away, because once you get a taste of the PF's, everything else looks rinky dink in comparison. I used to be a big Bowen collector, and they still put out nice pieces, but I've ended up selling all of them over time because next to the SST PF's, they just look so "meh". As for space, if I stick to my guns, I should be fairly safe as far as DCU is concerned. I've got spots set aside for Ivy and Catwoman now that Harley is here. Down the road, if they should come to pass, I could see myself springing for Zatanna, Black Canary and Batgirl. And that should suit my needs. Now, Marvel is another situation entirely, and that's not counting indie stuff too. I have Red Sonja and Hellboy EX's on order and I'm already trying to figure out the logistics of where they'll finally come to rest. Of course, these are good problems to have!

I think I posted it earlier in the thread. Those look terrific. The SW looks so much better in pics I've seen than in the promo materials SST released. I have been saving up some Reward Points, I might give in and pic her up. BW also looks great too! I have the IM2/ScarJo version, so I thought I was set, but if this one doesn't sell out for a while, I may scoop her up eventually too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One you start buying Sideshow pieces, everything else looks like trinkets. And that's not a knock on the quality of smaller stuff necessarily, but the size, presence and detail of a PF are unparalleled. LSFs are even crazier, but you're paying 5x the price.
