DARTH MAUL 1:1 BUST!!!!

[Lookin4Precious]

WOW! That is simply AMAZING! I mean, it looks like a real head. The detail, the likeness .. just WOW!

I only collect LOTR and only statues and environments at that.. but jesus that thing is amazing! SW is really tempting me. Everything they have done is just amazing... and if they keep comming like this.. i don't know if i could hold out...

Well Chris was having to wait to put the preorder up until today so he would have time to include the Flexpay option. Apparently this option is only used for high ticket items of $500 and up. So $800 isn't a bad quess. It's apparently mixed media as well using a cloth robe and hood. I would expect a very low ES though probably no bigger than 300 - 500.

[Winged Shadows]

Flex Pay Link

$600 is a VERY good price on this. I might have to think about this one now. I actually wouldn't need the Flex Pay for once.

Oh, and it's not a Sideshow Exclusive, so Bob, Adam, etc. will have it for cheaper. I said before that Maul and Yoda are the only ones I would get, so I'll have to wait and see.

Here's a question for you guys: would you buy a clone trooper shock trooper's helmet or a shock trooper bust at double the price?

El, I would buy the Vader bust for sure.

Re

This is very tempting. I know I'd buy a Vader and Fett bust for sure, but this may be on my list as well.
Damn you SS!

Re: Re

I know....I really don't know what to do either!

Hmm....
Plus all these new Statues and other stuff due out.... :bang

It is really really well done, holds up to close scrutiny. You can even see the pores 8)

Re: Re

Awesome pics Chuck!!!!!

This piece is a must have for me.

Re: Re

wow!!!! the detail on this is so freakin amazing!!!

 

[Mini Rock]

Re: re

Good question Gazmog. Personally, I'd prefer SS busts, but considering the short license to make these, I doubt I would see all I wanted from the bust line; so, I will be collecting both.

Got my order in for Maul too. Good thing I have 8+ months to figure out where I'm going to put this.

 

[LOTR Fan]

Re: re

With the flex pay option and the shipping date, it is getting quite tempting.

 

[88th division]

SST has posted it for preorder $600.00, made in three payments.

 

[lakeshouse]

Hope they also make 1:1 Padame

 

[Naugladur]

That is the most hideous and offensive-looking thing I've ever seen.

I can't wait to get mine.

 

[LOTRFan]

How's this for resurrecting an oldie ...


This is now my wife's least favorite piece ... ever. My kids are split, but my choice is fairly certain - HE ROCKS! At 1:1 scale, the details are remarkable, pores folks, he has pores. I was curious how the eyes would look, they are nice and glossy; just as they should be. The paint work is top-notch, no bleeding lines, crisp and evil -- just the way I like my Sith lords. Now bring on Yoda.

I realize that this bust has been out awhile, but I felt like sharing.

 

[Darth Loki]

I love mine just as much. The detail is just amazing and everything is dead on.

Do you pose with or without the hood? The hood makes him a little more evil looking but I just hate to hide those gorgous horns.
