I'm sure those recast sellers will make this one painted or unpainted for half the price. So you can still get it. Sad they knock off these statues and parts which is almost impossible to tell the difference as far as parts are concerned. But it is what it is since SS and all the other companies do nothing.

Agree. Shows you how important good paint apps really are to the final look of the piece.

Martin Canale is one of my favorite sculptors but that does not mean everything he does is untouchable.

Prime 1



Sideshow Canale



Prime 1 all day for me. The sculpt on the Canale piece is good and I think the real failing is not his work but the art direction and design. His attention to detail is definitely there. Sideshow really did it an injustice by adding the PVC elements though.

So the guy is upset because it doesn’t break?

What a weirdo

Probably the most pointless review I’ve seen

Yeah, I’m torn about that video. The piece actually looks really good, and is seemingly indestructable. But I can see how the squishy aspect will bother many collectors.

No, obviously because of the material. I'm sure if it were hard and didn't break there wouldn't be an issue.
