Unfortunately with this peice, they have made it so it ONLY looks good with the light on. what happens with the lights dont work anymore. You have Ghost Rider with nacho sauce on his wheels and head

I think that it is an excellent sculpt but it doesn't scream Ghost Rider to me - NOT ENOUGH FLAME!

Kind of reminds me of those cheap goth statues of a skeleton surfing/skateboarding/playing a guitar/whatever...

At that price the whole thing should be light up. If there were more translucent flames around the head and it lit up along with the wheels and maybe the headlight, this thing would be absolutely amazing. It should also have an ungloved change-o hand. If I were a big GR fan I'd consider having one modded, and maybe adding a raven perched on the handlebar.

My exact same complaints. Really dig what they were going for with the pose and feel of the piece but The lack of flames and smallish Jack Skellington head are deal breakers.

All in all though GG has been crushing these Marvel sculpts. WWII Cap on bike might be where I take the plunge.

As far as the price these are very large pieces folks. I was blown away at the size of Cap, Deadpool and Hawkeye at SDCC. They are fair market value at $100 more than a BD piece.

I think it is very nice but the price is very steep.
