This looks like a good concept that might have been epic as a complete piece.

The sculpting is excellent. But I’d prefer the old style Legendary Scale Busts. Also I know many didn’t but I love displaying the name plates on the old exclusives. I’d like to see them go back to proper LSBs and the name plates if they do any more busts (always wanted a Black Panther, Storm, that Cyclops they teased and unfortunately never released).
Yea, this certainly is no LSB. Much smaller in size. It looks better than expected but truly disappointed that it wasn't closer to the 1:2 scale that SS bust collectors had amassed. Way to go thinking of your fanbase, SS.

I did enjoy collecting those busts and the creativity that extended into the name plate designs. For some reason it didn't ring as tacky compared to names on the full size statue bases.

I’m looking to Diamond for 1/2 busts from now on I guess. I get Deadpool this week. I’ll get Venom soon. Their 1/2 bust designs have been very hit or miss but they’re A LOT cheaper than sideshow.

I remember people with the Full Size busts saying they didn’t like the names on those. But you nailed it, I think it’s the creativity of the LSB name plates as well. The Gambit nameplate is better than the actual bust to me lol.

Yeah they should've done that (Thanos pf) considering the head cant be swapped onto the maquette.

Lol. That's saying a lot because I thought the Ragin' Cajun looked exceptional. I didn't have as many busts as other collectors, but I did really enjoy Captain America and Emma Frost - both with cool plates.

This is pretty shameful the more I think of it. Basically a 1/4 scale bust for $325 is terrible. I'm hoping your Diamond busts more than satisfy.

It's literally using the same mold as ToT with a new forearm and face.

I'm hard pressed to call this Legendary scale but I do like it. I may pick it up. It would look really nice on my shelf next to my Infinity War and Gauntlet omnibius
