1. It's not the same situation because Jazz are already committed to the Catwoman project so if HT announces theirs, it makes no sense for Jazz to just cancel.

2. I don't think most people would just go for Hot Toys, only those that want a cheaper version would, but not those that want the best version possible and we'd have to see what Hot Toys' version looks like first.

Apart from their third party Vulture from years ago (with no human likeness nor complex tailoring like Catwoman), we don’t even know what a JazzInc figure looks like upon release.

If Hot Toys announced a Michelle Pfeiffer Catwoman, with 2-3 alternate mouthplates, rolling eyes, and either an alternate battle damaged or unmasked head, all in the same box, and it looked great, I’d be tempted to cancel JazzInc’s.

It’s nothing personal at all, I just want whatever looks best, is the best value, and feels safest. I have Hot Toys figures and know roughly what to expect from them.

Even if Hot Toys announces a Catwoman I'm not planning to cancel the Jazz version. 1, I'm not going to eat the $100 NRD I put down, 2, Jazz is really doing his best to find an outfit material that is going to last as long as possible.

I’m just curious as to JazzInc’s operational approach is all.

Totally understand where you're coming from, I don't disagree. But even if we feel safer going with Hot Toys, I'm not convinced of their quality either, I just got into this hobby in 2024 so I'm not as seasoned but that doesn't matter because I've seen enough - my Batman 2022 mouth plate magnets falling out, my fragile Tumbler having parts break off. These are just my stuff, others I've seen online with Deadpool ankles and now the Artisan Joker fiasco.

It's all relative actually, Hot Toys is cheaper but they're not high quality across the board for their figs. I will still buy HT, but for Jazzinc they know with their first figure they have to deliver otherwise myself and most of us will not buy another one of theirs if it's a massive fail.
