Man glad I skipped out on the Dragon Toys armor, very under-scaled. Hope SooSoo announce their version soon.
Thank you kindly! A lot of futzing and a lot of patience were definitely the key to achieving that pose

As someone who is kinda indifferent to all of those movies, that’s one of the greatest displays of all time
That right there is a DREAM line-up! Look at all those colors!!!!
Many years ago, I had a collection of 12 inch resin garage kits, the ones you paint yourself, and had a line-up close to that. I've been eager to recreate that in the new soft-goods 1/6th ever since. It is just glorious.
Exactly what is wrong with modern movie figures. No real color, not bright and colorful.
Even the eccentric personalities are gone in todays movies.... Mostly outside joker. Where is the over the top acting of Jim Carrey or Tommy Lee?
Compare it to Ras Al Gul in the Dark Knight, he's barely remembered. Same with teh Riddler from Batman.
If he had a more colorful outfit, perhaps more cheesiness......he would be more desired by collectors....

Did Toys Apollo hire someone to copy Justin’s Collectibles’ thumbnails? 
He’s looking good in those reviews! Even though that chair looks awesome I’ll never use it due to space. Mine should be here week after next from GT.
An “ice” display stand is in the works too.

So awesome!!!
That's the way a base needs to be done. A base doesn't have to be heavy and clunky. Bases can be cheap, hallow and look great.
That chair is fantastic, one piece of plastic, probably cost 5-10 bucks at a dollar store max...it just so simple yet ads so much. A hallow chair for the Riddler would be fine. Just yeah...beautiful figure and accessory.
I always wonder why 6 inch figures don't do cheap cardboard diorammas as they already use cardboard, might as well create cheap dios inside packaging.

I saw all those too when the exhibition was in Manchester in August. So great to see that Freeze suit in person. It’s actually quite intimidating when you see it up close in the real world.
This is close to being sold out everywhere. Whoever still debates about ordering one, hurry with your decision or you may regret later.
I thought it was sold out, where is it still available?

The problem with some of those cardboard dios is these figure companies don’t obtain a high resolution image source to create the backgrounds.
Some of them are blurry or look like they have compression artifacts because a low resolution image gets blown up for this larger dio.
3rd parties I can forgive but licensed companies have no excuse since they should have access to the source material. Even Hot Toys is guilty of this on some subpar cardboard dios.

The blurry cardboard school bus backdrop included with Bank Robber Joker 2.0 comes to mind.
