....I can't even...you just go ahead and believe what you like. Let me know when you try your first 3D sculpt.

Oh they know alright, they know that this isn't true but trying to say anything about it, they can't even...

You know that last glimmer of hope you have for humanity? Yeah mine was just extinguished.

I'm sure I missed the discussion on this bit, but what do ya'll think about Thanos not really facing forward. Be a little odd to display it with the chair cocked to the side just to have him facing forward. I don't know, what do ya'll think? I've preordered the piece regardless, you can't deny the insane amount of detail, beautiful.

I like it at pretty much any angle. I still need to look into mirrors. The throne is too good.

Magneto's throne did not have the tiny intricacies like below




I'm with you dude. On another note I just cancelled my Maul PF pre-order to free up some cash & room for Thanos.



That's not noise or a texture add, that's tiny mechanical sculpted detail. And it's not easy. The fact that one of the best sculptors in the collectible world said it took him 4 months, a man with decades of experience, should tell you nothing about it was easy.

So don't preach about truth because you stared at a bunch of statues.
I'm with you dude. SMH

On another not I just cancelled a pre-order to free up some cash for Thanos. It was kind of an impulse buy anyway. I was thinking about cancelling Kylo Ren too but I'm not sure.

I'd personally love a Poison Ivy on throne of plants and flowers.

Maybe a rotating display platform?

that's a good call!

Honestly there aren't many characters I would want sitting unless it's done in a unique way like XM Mags or what Northern suggests.

A throne made sense for Doom and I don't really consider this Thanos a 'throne' as much as his transporter.
