Different strokes, folks. The PACIFIC RIM Knifehead statue is a masterpiece imo, and is selling out way faster than anyone expected (less than 50 left!). The size is perfect (it's a large horizontal sculpt, as opposed to the 23" tall Slattern), the presentation most engaging (even including the little ship for scale), and the entire piece allows us to appreciate just how much imagination went into the design of this bizarre creature, one we only see in quickly-edited glimpses during PACIFIC RIM itself. Finally, that light-up feature is irresistible... who the heck wouldn't want a Knifehead nightlamp, with that cool blue ocean light and his open mouth all aglow! I tried to say "no" to this baby at first, because I'm running out of room (not to mention bucks). But the piece was simply too impressive to ignore. I intend to buy Slattern, as well, and position these two beasties in a face-off arrangement, as if they're preparing to fight... who even needs the giant robots? I've always been more of a monster man myself. The grotesque, almost Lovecraftian look of these PACIFIC RIM behemoths really spoke to me, and having great statues of them to study at length puts a smile on my face. Like I said, each to his own taste...
) As long as theres some good size and it looks good, which I think it will, il be considering--but i LOVE that piece legacy made/displayed in their artbook!
