it means the bust is perfectly balanced for proper weight distribution between the top of the head and the added weight on the base, a perfect flippable collectible you should be able to place the edges of both hands under the base and quickly pull them upwards causing the item to do a complete flip in the air and land safely back on the base

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

1. An outstanding work of art or craft.

2. The greatest work, as of an artist. Also called masterwork.

3. Something superlative of its kind: a masterpiece of political ingenuity.


after examing the definition of masterpiece, it's a matter of opinion. Right now, i can say my Sub-Zero Sideshow EX is a masterpiece.
Yeah I guess it's somewhat of an erroneous questions. Im happy that your Sub LSB is a masterpiece. I PO'd Scorpion LSB so Im hoping it will
WOW me. In my collections, certain pieces WOW me.

The Dark Rider of Mordor, took me awhile to warm up to it. Reaper LSF is a true masterpiece.

Your English seems pretty good to me

"Flippable", means you could buy it for retail price, then quickly sell it for a higher price.

"Flipping" it for a profit.

But trying to actually Flip this statue (in the air lol) could also be fun. And very funny to see

Maybe MrYac will post a video of himself demonstrating this feat lol.
