Actually, it's derived in MOST part from my dislike of Hughes, but we're talking about the sculpt and thier execution, not Hughes style (or lack there of)

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Thus compromising your objectivity!

Steve Martin (pre 1990)


If you like any of those, then we do agree on something!
Love all of the above, see we can agree on some things

Not at all .. my comments we're made on the sculpt themselves, my dislike of Hughes is irrelevent to the subject at hand. You didn't even know that I didn't like Hughes until that fact was brought up by B_C, because my arguments were kept to the sculpts and why they worked or didn't work.

Had these sculpts actually worked, I would have gladly said so .. as a matter of fact, I've already stated that the Harley and the Catwoman piece are great and I will likely buy them (provided I can get them at a substancial discount from the SRP)

Just because someone doesn't like something, doesn't mean that they can't give an objective opinion on it.

And let me claify something for the record, I've seen Hughes's concept drawings for these pieces, if they had actually turned out closer to the concept drawings (with a few exteremely minor alterations), I might have liked them better.

We were doing alright, but I got a little dig in and it set him off again!

Meaning no offense, but you're giving yourself entirely too much credit. There's only been 1 person on these boards that's ever truly "set me off" ... and it's not you.
