Maybe they should take a picture of the piece with another piece that is in the same line or one that it is related to instead of posting what scale he is.
Like how they posted the hulkbuster with the Hulk.
That way scale isn't debatable and we know it will go well with the related pieces.

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...
Give them a break? Why should we? We are the customers that keeps Sideshow in business! Without us, they would have never been as big as they are now! If a company wants to have a NRD in place, they need to start listening to the customers. I guess you are the one who voted "no"?

That would be good too, like they did with Hulk vs Hulkbuster on the Hulk comiquette product page.

What gave you that idea?

I wipe my ass with concerns over scale... Dimensions, price, and clear photos are all I need.

Buying similar scale pieces, makes for a boring display IMO. I buy 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, 1:5, 1:6 etc. It's all good.

The dimensions on the site are estimates and often wrong as mentioned earlier tho.

That's fine that you like multiple scales but that should not bar you from voting for full disclosure for your fellow friendly collectors. : )

Yes we need the scale, pics can be very deceiving.

Just stating my opinion, nothing more.

I didn't realize that I was depriving you of yours?

If Sideshow is not going to give the scale , at least post pics with other statues like with the Colossus and Nightcrawler comiquette.
