It's been brought up many times before, and I don't think they care...

Unless the SS apple varies in size or because like on all their products the dimensions are only an estimation and wrong most of the time.

For instance,

Venom comiquette Product page: Product Size: 13" H Actual Height: 14.2"
Back in Black Spiderman comiquette Product page: Product Size: 16.5" Actual Height H 17.8"
Punisher comiquette Product page: Product Size: 20" Actual Height H 18"
Mystique comiqutte Product page: Product Size: 16" Actual Height H 17.2"

Many others are also wrong and sideshow states on their product pages that

Product size and weight are approximate values.

What scale is Hobgoblin from your calculations The Wraith?

They will care when they are losing customers or sales. It will happen sooner or later.

He's actually 14.2 inches high.

Well, that might be the case with posting "scale" as well. They could say that it's 1:4 scale, and it ships out in 1:5.

Double post whoops!

Yes I thought Punisher was 1:4 but infact he is 1:5. The apple is very misleading. They had Elektra comiquette listed at 14.5" infact it's 2"taller. Scale listing is important especially when some of us display them with another statue. We want them to be in the same scale.

I think they'd be setting themselves up for even more complaining if they did show scale...

You'd just have dozens of nerds on these boards complaining about how they got it wrong each time...

"Hobgoblin was 5'10" in Amazing Spider-Man #384... you're saying that this statue is 1:5 scale, and by my calculations, that makes him 5'11"

I mean, give them a break...

I think it's crucial that they give ALL the information up front when asking for a NRD.
If not then give the fee back when we cancel because of the new information.
I want to see the scale, the ES (including an International ES), and what the exclusive comes with.

Nah with money down for NRD I don't think I will. Listing approximate scale should not be an kind of a problem. Even the custom sculptors can list the scale while sculpting the piece.

Look at the Premium Format line, they state that it is 1:4 scale and most of the time there is no problems.

Also I have yet to see many people say anything about the scale of their premium formats or have an issue with it.

And if you like 1/5 scale you should be voting for this even more, because it will make the less popular scales have a smaller edition size and be more valuable in the long run.

More information just works better for the customer when they making and informed decision and are paying money up front.

Scale should be disclosed. It can be done and it should be done.
