I can agree with that. Competition is competition. All the companies are competing for a scarce resource, nerd hobby money
I know this last year I spent a small fortune on XM statues and that has directly impacted my SS orders. This week alone I made the conscious decision to purchase XM Ms Marvel and pass on the SS Balent Catwoman. I'v also played with the idea of picking up the Prime1 Optimus and Bee but if I did that it would all but guarantee no more SS pieces over the next year. For me, I prioritize based on the line. I have always been more of a Marvel person so XM is taking most of money. But if I was more of a DC person I would throwing money at SS. That said the Prime1 Arkham line is everything I have always wanted and I am super disappointed with what SS has done with the line. Even if not in pricing, SS still needs to produce better products that can compete for my money and I think they are getting better in some areas. I think this Aquaman is fantastic if DC was my main line.
