Well my assumption is that the bigger size will translate to better sculpts and tailoring. I could be wrong of course but I imagine that more often than not the new legendary figures will trump their respective PF's.

So does "Legendary" mean "Classic"?
Is my Romita Sr. Spider-Man just around the corner and at 1:2 scale??!???

Heh. Wouldn't hold my breath if I were you.
Who in their right mind would hazard to bet that these pieces would be solid?
This would also mean being a whole lot pickier on what you collect, gone are the days that people purchase lesser known characters unless of course they restrict themselves with the PF line.

why does every thread you post in have you clamoring for your "Romita Sr. Spider-Man"? How about just commissioning one?

Agreed, but I don't need 1/2 scale. The comiquette is good enough for me.

I disagree. 1/2 scale pieces will be very expensive and consume significant space. I dont think many PF collectors will switch to 1/2 scale...although I must admit it will be very tempting.
I figure you are right, and that they will just be more impressive because of the size. But, I think the smaller statues will still maintain their presence (as long as you keep them in another room!) and won't become any less awesome. At least, I hope so. Would be a real bummer if PFs ended up being another example of how things that used to seem so great are great no longer because something so much better came along and humbled them (e.g., Medicom RAH figures, NECA/McFarlane, etc.).
Jeez, thought this was a public collectibles forum where fans discuss their wants, their likes, their dislikes...you know, fun stuff. Not every post of mine has me "clamoring" for the Romita Spidey.

I'll do 1:2 scale only when the sculpt is perfect, the version is classic and the character is a favorite (Spidey, Cap, Thor, Iron Man, Wonder Woman, Superman, Batman...)

Yeah that's probably true, I should have said they would be obsolete to me : P

I'm sure these LS figures will look great but there is still something odd about the 1:2 scale - my preference is life size, or stick to smaller scales if not feasible (eg Hulk, AT-AT, etc). Imagine if Sideshow made a 1:2 scale Vader - even if the detail was amazing it would still look like a kid dressed up for Halloween.
