And big. I might try to get a second one and have it customized as a Yellowjacket. I always liked the growing and shrinking YJ from my comic book reading days in the 70s/early80s.

I like the giant man/wasp better.

Isn't this one bigger than the GM/Wasp? He'll make a cool YJ. Maybe Randy'll do a Clint Barton Goliath variant.

That's my favorite GM costume version. I really like it. I'm going to order it this weekend.

If they do all three, a Bill Foster Black Goliath or Giant-Man is a must!

Can you post a picture of Giant-man next to Goliath?

Randy already mentioned he would a while back. The CBV will be facing the opposite way.

I saw the title of this thread on the main page and knew it was gonna be Abe who started it :). It's a nice bust but nothing special. I might be tempted to get that Clint Goliath when it comes out though.

Now can someone post a pic of a topless cute woman holding Goliath in front of her right breast, and Giant Man in front of the left? :eplus2:

Goliath is just a repainted GM so they should be the same size.

Hey Jesse, I told you ABE would be the first to get Goliath...like he does with all of them :( We should be receiving ours next Thursday or Friday.

"Just repainted"... NOT!

While I did use a casting of Giant Man as a start, there was substantial resculpting on the face, neck, costume and ears. Originally this was to have 'ear-pods'. Folks on this very forum demanded exposed ears.

In fact, this bust would have been released a lot sooner if not for he ear issue. The piece was already in production when the ear issue raised it's head. The master was shipped back from overseas, resculpted, new masters were made, painted, new photos etc.

All of this because of the forum requests. And oh yeah; there was originally an early 1960's flavored base on the piece, which was also replace with the one matching the first Giant-Man bust (per forum requests). :)

FS Galactus bust would rock (or look like a hunter's trophy).

But at least he shares good pictures with us, so he can continue to live. :laugh:

Randy, We appreciate you listening to our input! It shows what a class act you are, and that you are dedicated toproducing the best pieces out there!

It's just not different enough for me. either I gotta get one customized into the dc character I was thinking of doing or I just keep the giant man one I have.

Henry Pym just isn't that exciting of a character to have done again.

I appreciate Randy listening to all the forum requests, but I think a different base would have made a ton of difference at the very least.

Just my two cents.

I do remember the ear issue. Did not know about the other (big) tweaks. At least I got an (unexpected) RB reply :)

Good stuff Randy!!

You give what the people want :buttrock: .

I seen this bust and it is still at my LCS, i seen 2 sell and there is one left......

I might pick it up if its there long enough but concentrating on getting a few older busts that I want. :p
