Well, a few reasons. First, Batman was my first favorite superhero when I was a kid. Second and most importantly for the picture I have that beautiful mint Super Powers Batman but I dont own a Superman yet. Can't seem to find him in great condition for a price I'm willing to pay. I did have Superman as a kid and if I had him now he would have been in the picture bc I feel like his colors really pop in photos.
The most irritating thing is I couldn't locate my vintage Stratos to put in the picture so I could use the custom one. I wanted to use Lion-O too since he was my favorite but his size was actually close to the Ace so I went with Panthro to really show the differences in scale.

Always great to hit a breakthrough after being stalled. Happens to me from time to time where it just blows up momentum, glad you figured them out because it’s led to us seeing more awesome stuff!
Those are bad ass pictures! Bad thing is it makes me realize how badly I want customs of some of those guys! Haha. Totally agree, hard to beat the originals due to nostalgia and years of those being our go-to’s.....but then totally different ballgame seeing them all in the same scale together. It is funny how some stuff back in the day you just dealt with the scaling issues to do crossover missions anyway. I know since I didn’t have a Joe Sarge when I was younger, my WWF like 4-5” Sarge would go on Joe missions and wipe the floor with Cobra. Haha.
LOL! Oh my Visionaries were always huge overly strong bad guys for my Joes to fight. Scale didn't always stop things.
