Question Is it really them?

There's an eBay id that goes by the name of shiflettbrothers. Most, if not all of their auctions have the base of the statue signed by Brandon and Jarrod Shiflett. I was just wondering if it's really them. Anyone can shed some light in this matter?

Sure it is, and they occasionally sell one-offs. Two beauties - Harley Quinn and Death come to mind. The pics are somewhere on this forum.

I lost on it in the final minutes. Just couldn't justify the cost. I think it ended around 3-something or $400.00.

Anyone have the link to the picture of this? I'm curious.

Do you think it would have been worth it, in hindsight, to have gone a little higher? I paid a lot for my Shiflett Iron Fist bust, but I don't regret it, knowing it's a one-off. Just wish I could have bought it from the Brothers direct.

During the peak Hulk statue phase, the Shifflett boys sold off pairs of signed AP statues... It went for major bucks too.

It's a good idea to keep an eye on what they post. You tend to see some good stuff.

Yes, I think it would've because it was a beautiful sculpt.

Only drawback is though, that it was in Sculpey and not cast,
so it is probably very delicate and rigid and could possibly
crack on the armature over time.

But yeah, I thought long and hard about going the distance on
this one.

They never seem to sell them direct. They probably place it
on ebaY to get the highest possible price for it (them).
