I took the plunge and had to order this as Gambit is one of my favorite X-Men As well as this dynamic pose is Epic. I have the old Bowen Gambit which is also amazing still to this day! Bowen statues look great in person and Gambit is no different when it comes to a masterpiece!
Even though the cards would look cool to light up with LED’s many bring up good points that if for any reason burn out sooner then later then not only does it bring the value down, but most collectors dont want to have something on there collectible that they know years down the road will no longer work unless you preserve them as long as possible barely using them.
I think a better alternative to LED lights would to somehow make the neon pink plasma painted with a Glow in the Dark paint or use a technology like Hot Toys Luminous Reflective effect so when shining a Black Light on it will make the Plasma Glow And that effect is always good never dying like LED’s...
I think more ways to use glowing and reflective elements can make things like glowing plasma look amazing versus cool looking LED’s Die Eventually and cant be Replaced..
You can have the option to turn off the Black Light and it will look exactly how it looks now in pics, but turn on a Black Light and be wowed with Glowing PLASMA!
Sideshow please make that happen!
Plus, Glow in the dark paint or a luminous reflective effect would not add as much extra cost as LED’s might do.
PS: Does anyone know another good photo hosting site as TinyPics has been shut down?
That is so whack... Every pic I ever posted on this forum is gone since I hosted them with TinyPics.... :-(
