This must be understood when buying and factored in when considering what you're getting for your money.
Scale is weird.
A 1/12 figure is about 6 inches in height.
A 1/6 figure is around 12 inches tall.
But what you have to factor in is 'girth'.
Scale occurs in 3 dimensions; so a 12 inch figure is not simply twice as large as a 6 inch figure.
It is larger in 3 dimensions.
If you compare S H Figuarts Black Panther with Hot Toys Black Panther? (See pictures).
The Hot Toys figure costs twice as much but you get more than twice the S H Figuarts figure.
Make sense?
