Hi! Just wanted to introduce myself. I just got turned onto Sideshow a couple of weeks back. I think I was browsing eBay after watching RotS for the first time, ::ducks tomatoes and flying droid parts::, and found some of the fantastic work being done by these guys and gals. The piece that hooked me was the AMAZING Wolvie vs. Sabretooth. I was a HUGE comic collector some 20 odd years ago before I was forced to sell them to pay for college tuition. I have been nostalgic ever since, and this piece just brought all my wonderful memories back to life. The piece is just SO DYNAMIC. It is full of action without movement, which is why I am so in love with these VS. pieces. No single character piece can ever bring this level of excitement to a statue. I guess this was why I was/am such a HUGE fan of the Silver age battle books, which is what most of my long gone collection consisted of.

I purchased an Exclusive version on eBay from streich78, so if you guys know who this is, let me know. Great transaction.

The first piece from Sideshow I got to order from the site was the exclusive Hulk vs. Spidey. I love this piece and can't wait to receive it. I recently won an ex. X-MEN vs Sentinel but haven't received it as of yet. Won that from 'rperrom'l, again, if he's on here, let me know!

Heh, and now, I won a Ringwraith from treasart!

Oh God, I am so hooked....::digs change out of the couch::

Good to have you here, Fly! I too was blown away by the VS. Dioramas, just excellent craftmanship. SSC is doing a lot to bring out our inner comic dork, making these statues so sweet...

Good luck collecting them all, and do not worry about scoring a few figures on ebay... it's ok, just be careful. I've had to get quite a few of my SSC figures via different sellers, as I'm trying to collect already sold out stock. Never had a bad experience yet, but you never know.

Welcome again, and hope you enjoy this crazy place as much as we do...:joy

Thanks for the welcome peeps! I plan on sticking around, even though it may have been a bit of a rough start!

I'm knee deep in Weta stuff. Took yet another chance on ForbiddenBay, ordered Sauron, BToM, and KotD from the same seller. Hah, someone lock up my wallet!
