to me, it looks as if the entire bust was repainted.

But, I don't think you've been had

The rest seems to be all in order so I'm wondering if maybe somebody before me broke a few teeth,tried to fix'em and realised that transluscent plastic wouldn't repair so well and coated the teeth in silver paint?? Anyway at least it matches the fingernails!!

yeah that's what I think happened. I like it though. The teeth look more menacing!

I agree. Here is a pic of the one I used to have:

I think it looks great don't worry!

Likewise I think it looks awesome. Great find.

Great find, but, it is not "factory fresh" It has been repainted to look more "screen" accurate, like D to the triple 6 says, but not prop accurate.

It looks pretty freakin' sweet IMO.

I'm sure I saw this bust on ebay last year. They had received the bust damaged, one of the main teeth had broken. The guy had repaired it & painted the teeth silver in order to cover the repair. He was quite open about all of this in the auction & the bust was priced very competitively. I watched it for a while, but the guy must have had an offer or a change of heart because he removed it from sale.

Wished I'd pulled the trigger on it when it was available as a buy it now.

What kinda money was he/she asking Rich??:emperor

 

[RichPG]

I can't remember 100% but it was close to 50% of RRP so somewhere £275 - £300 I think. I thought at the time it seemed a bit too good to be true & it was hard to tell how well he had carried out the repair. I would imagine he sold it for a bit more though.

 

[laudel7]

that was a good price damaged or not!

 

[The_One]

I got mine at a bargain but will keep that quiet incase I sell it soon!!

I do quite like the other picture with the translucant teeth.....Any way mine looks pretty hot where it is so maybe I don't need to worry about it!

Appreciate the comments guys/gals
