They're on there yes, but you can't actually order them. They have a link to Sideshow to purchase.
While I wish that P1 could straight up compete with Sideshow, as I believe competition is good for the consumer, there’s nothing really shady about Sideshow protecting the licenses they’ve paid for...it’s just business.

I don’t think I would say it’s “shady”....I mean P1 agrees to it.
I think they just see it as a way to make some relatively/quick easy money by being a design consultant on a statue someone else manufactures/distributes.
Now whether or not they SHOULD feel compelled to do something like that, I guess that’s a different story. Maybe they don’t see it as a competition scenario since they’re not able to make 1/4 statues on their own so they don’t care as much. I imagine if P1 had the DC 1/4 license, this collaboration wouldn’t happen.
Then you could talk about the perhaps somewhat surprise that Sideshow does it, since P1’s design version makes their own look pretty bad by comparison. But Sideshow probably figures most people aren’t even aware of/care about things like that because most of the people who buy it probably say they bought it from Sideshow and don’t even mention P1.
