#84/1000 arrived yesterday! AWESOME!:thumbs2: If someone can help me post pictures, I will. - ('cause I know to claim I have it -- I have to post pics).
But be advised - I'm very computer illiterate. :stick:

1) Put a pic on the net. There are a ton of places that will host pics for you. Just google "photo hosting." I use village photo.

2) Get the web location of the photo

3) When you come here, past that location between location

DONE!

another option is photobucket.com
Its free, and very easy to upload pics from your computer.

When they are in photobucket, just cut and paste the image.
It will be the third option that looks like this:
[ IMG]http://i93.photobucket.com/albums/l5//DSC00768.jpg[/IMG ]
Just copy and paste the above and put it right into the text box!

It's easy once you get the hang of it.

now lets get those pics up!!!:thumbs2:

Your last option is to upload pics on to the forum. Below where you post is and area where you can take pics from your PC and put them here. They have to be a certain size though, otherwise they won't load.

Does it bother anyone else that Mysterio's head is covered in a frosted glass rather than a bright, shiny dome (like the prototype) ? Somehow that would balance the glossy paint on the body.

The prototype had a frosted dome. Maybe it's just the pictures that make it look a little shinier in the prototype.

I'm really surprised that this one is getting such a positive reaction.

I thought it was very plain looking and didn't really like what they did with the globe helmet and the chewed-up head on the inside.

The DST Mystrerio looked better than this one!

i think this statue is top notch, very well done by mvt!!! gotta disagree with tetra here. the dst has an oversized marble on his head and the usuall inferior paintjob which as usual makes much of their stuff less than desirable.

the only thing that could've put this statue at that next level would be clear resin with proper colors inside for the base, not that the base now is bad. it could've been better but that i believe that may have been out of mvt's hands and randy's choice to make.

I see what you are saying now. Thanks! Personally, I prefer the way the base is. The color of the smoke effect was one of the things that attracted me to it when I first saw it. To each his own, I guess!

I received Mysterio over the weekend and it really is a nice statue. The large base really helps this one, because Mysterio is one of the more sillier looking Marvel characters. The dynamic sculpt really makes this piece a must have, if you're into Spidey villians.

JDH
01-30-2007, 06:12 AM
I saw this in person yesterday, and it now ranks as easily the best BD statue I don't own. It displays superbly alongside the DST Kraven, which looks great and has an exceptional base - you couldn't get a better Kraven. The pair make me wish I had the room for a Spidey villain full-size collection. Brilliant job, Mark.

While I didn't make them obvious on the sculpture (easier to pull out of the mold was my thinking), it did have a suggestion of those sharp hooks. It does look like they were removed from the final and could have been for several reasons or at any stage... which I could only be guessing at. However I don't think the lack of them really hurt the final piece?

Seen him in person and his sphere is VERY misty, you can see stuff inside but cannot see through.
You can obscurely see some kind of cloudy-smoke-like thing in the sphere, not a face.

Just got mine today and I'm impressed. Not just with the overall sculpt but the detail on the inside of the cape. It would have been so easy to just make the surface smooth but no, had to put in a pattern. Don't know how accurate it is but it just shows the quality put into these statues.

Yes, sir, Louis! I'm just about to post my Mysteriopalooza pic in the "single-character display" thread in the general section. I still need to get the DST FS that came out recently. :) A good day at my house today!
