Hmmmmmmm...
Right when I was thinking about getting the Diamond 1/2 Rocketeer bust. This looks sharp...sharper than the diamond piece. How much they asking?

This "Gentle Giant" bust looks to be the exact same one that Diamond put out
https://www.amazon.com/DIAMOND-SELEC...0033494&sr=8-1
After having my opinion of busts turned 180 degrees around by the recent excellent SS Wonder Woman, this one has some huge appeal to me.
For a hunk of resin though, I thought this looked like a much better deal-
https://www.amazon.com/DIAMOND-SELEC...d-games&sr=1-1
work some LEDs in there and the damn thing really pops!
I do love the look of the bust, but for only $50 shipped, this isn't bad at all, and makes it hard for me to justify spending almost three times that on a bust roughly the same size.

Just received the ^ gallery figure from Amazon and can confirm this thing is probably the best value Rocketeer piece out there.

Agreed!
Got mine too from Amazon and it’s a Fantastic sub $50 Rocketeer statue. The old Electric Tiki Statue is much nicer, but for under $50 this thing is untouchable.

There's a youtube video up of a pre-release unboxing for the Diamond Legends in 3D version of this bust (I'm still unclear as to what the difference between brands is as they look identical to me).
I noticed the pin striping on the base looked amateurishly done, but I still feel very drawn to this.
Amazon has it for $115 at the moment and with stim checks coming soon...

Diamond owns Gentle Giant collectibles so I think it is just the same product.

Ah. Surprised to find that out as I'd been under the assumption GG was under the umbrella of a larger, more tech based company.
Good to know now.
Thanks JD.
