Queen responded to someone on insta that the price should be reasonable. Pls don’t be over $400
If the quality is there, I don't mind paying for it.I love this. Perfect time for $500 1/6th figures.
I said this in another thread, but it will be funny to see Hot Toys be low-end now.

And CatwomanHopefully I can finally get my Batman Returns Penguin
On one hand that's a terrifying thought for anyone deep in the game. On the other, it could be a sort of rebirth. Higher prices, better quality and only "important" figures being made. We'd go back to the days of every 1/6th figure being a character that warrants the detail and scale, instead of Axes Woves and fifty Stormtrooper variants. The completionism hole a lot may find themselves in could be eradicated. Which is a double edged sword as we've spent a lot of time wishing HT would make the B/C-Listers instead of the same old, but you get my point.I love this. Perfect time for $500 1/6th figures.

As another International customer, I feel you. I've found a local store, so that eliminates the problem of shipping, but taxes are still a killer. The hobby's getting increasingly more expensive as life's getting more "demanding" as well. We'll all have to make choices, but the problem is that many of us are caught in the completionist train of thought, even if we're not going bananas with "flavour of the month" figures. Even if you're just a DC Collector and have an impressive Batman collection from HT, now you're looking at potentially better quality pieces of the same characters you own. Just how much do you love Batman, and why were you into the hobby in the first place?It's always good to have a competition each sector honestly for 1/6th scale figures our monopoly was Hot Toys now there will be new breathes in the market but as i read from past comments everybody is concerned with the prices like me because after COVID situations i guess each country and their citizens are struggling with economic situations and paying higher debts or even the gasoline prices are above the sky everywhere on the world and when we check Queen Studios and JND Collectibles they are already above most of the collectors budget for sure and they are working with quarter and half scales and would not be suprised those details but when the scale becomes smaller that means more craftmanship but i hope they will do almost similar jobs as their statues and always pleasure to see good stuff at our hobby center.
Biggest problem is if they put higher prices than Hot Toys even they shrink Pattinson and try to sell with 500$ people are still going to buy from HT because in today's world money is the most decisive factor and if you are buying like me by intertnational sellers after adding the shipment fees and custom fees that figure comes to you as a fortune and even displaying in a detolf shelf would not be enough maybe we can hire security like a diamong ring store because just a single one sixth scale is more expensive than jewelleries nowadays at least at my country lol.
Waiting for the priceTeaser pics for their joker.
I’m guessing rooted hair is going to be quite expensiveWaiting for the price

HT still has Marvel & SW though. I can see myself filling out some displays with the abre minimum of figures, and keeping QS/JND for the really important ones. If they do pleather that doesn't flake and break, or if they start using real leather, it'll be a game changer. Still, this could be good for me. Keep me more focused. I still think HT is good enough as a go-to for displays and all the figures we want, but are not dying for. But QS/JND could fill that 10 super-special figures per year void. I surely would love a true high end shelf of about 10 or so figures that stand above the rest. Paul Atreides, Vader, Doom, the favourites. The problem arises if they do a "next-level" eg Taxi Driver or Mr Robot, and I have to put them next to an HT Sparrow in a movie shelf that could be outdated by then.Exactly. It could be great.
Its like 2010 again -- giving up Sideshow figures for HT figures. The time has come again.
They are confirmed 1/6th according to their post though. They must improve something, otherwise why even get into it?What are those? There's no way that first pic with rooted hair is 1/6th... look at the fingers.
Why? It's possible that is 1/6 scale, they are trying to sell it. The fingers and hands look good because most likely it's not removable hands like Hot Toys, it's more like the detachable forearms. Will look more realistic that way.What are those? There's no way that first pic with rooted hair is 1/6th... look at the fingers.
