This looks bad. The flames look terrible. XM's version is 10 times better.

This transformation head looks cool. I can see the whole piece being a split second at almost full transformation, just becoming Ghost Rider, his face still changing, the rough texture on the upper jacket materializing and smoothing out like the lower portion as the bike pops up beneath him.


Also is this Johnny or Danny? I’ve only read Ghost Rider here and there.

They’re scrubbing comments

I don’t like that transformation head at all - should look like the fire burning his flesh off instead of morphing from flesh to bone that just looks bizarre

This looks great another Sideshow knock out the park. Not many GR options these last couple years.

The Forum is alot more critical here than on FB, ya hardcore fans who have money and space are going to want to get the XM or a custom ghost rider fullsize. Which is great that we have those options.

Those with limited space or grown collections can appreciate this one more. After Silver Surfer i knew if they did a ghost rider it wouldn't be the whole bike. I think the only reason Batman movie on bike was made full cause of the small size. Ghost Rider would be 2-3 times that.

Folks thinking its SS compromising, I think they are being mindful of folks who have and will buy more than one statue. But no one wants to hear that because they think its just cheaping out. Mind you they missed on scaling Silver Surfer and Galactus, Galactus should have been offered in two sizes like the Rancor did. But they you got the XM one to look forward to which will be probably bigger than XM Meastro and more expensive.

Maybe scrubbing the most toxic comments, but not entirely because people were posting there dislike/confusion for the new Star Wars line on facebook just like on here.

It is EXTREMELY strange, 1 day after the fact and still noone answered the CRUCIAL question.

WHO sculpted this ABOMINATION? This atrocious sculpt?

It is extremely strange. As if Sideshow "covers" his identity in order to "protect" him. But fans want to know.

Nevertheless, i guess its time for Harbottle and Canale to STEP IN, to throw this joke of a sculpt in the recycle bin and sculpt themselves a magnificent Ghost Rider.

This Ghost Rider is going to be an endless money pit for Sideshow if it doesnt get a complete revamp.
