Well, I would think the portrait needs to be 1. desirable and 2. not available (statue sold out) for it to command a high price.

Hey guys,

Here are the photos with the Combistick as requested. I have to say, I think this might be my favorite accessory. It gives the pose more context. It also makes a huge statue even bigger. You'll need to have some hefty real estate for this option.

The combination of the closed mouth portrait and Combistick is DEADLY! So impressive seeing this set up in person.

Again I say, if you have the ability to get the DX, do it!

Yeah this, people paying high prices for stuff like spitfire and such is because they can't get it otherwise.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

He must read what I said the other day, about Jimmy Riggin' it to achieve both switch-outs. Lol..

I wonder if he tucked the net in-between the hand?

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

A little bit of forced perspective going on here I think but you can still get a feel for how much bigger this is that SSC City Hunter.

Yeah I love the combistick. Really happy I ordered direct. When they first reveled it I was like "Ok thats nice they gave us a little something extra" but now I feel like its a must own.

I've found a picture of the prototype shown at the Prime1 shop of Tokyo...
Check the perfection of the paint job of the forehead...
At the end of the day the final product is impressive but the difference with the proto about the unmasked heads is incredible
