Thanks guys. It's amazing how it grows over time, but mine is still small compared to many on this board.

Picked this up Damaged for $50, fixed it up to the best of my ability and i'm very happy for the price.

It's a fantastic piece, very dynamic and stands around 18 inches tall.

Been wanting this for ages as i like GI Joe in general and i always thought this was one of the most dynamic dioramas i'd seen, s o picked it up last week for a decent price.

First thing is it's huge and really heavy. The base that the whole thing sits on is about 19 inches long and 15 inches wide and even though the diorama is only around 12 inches high the huge footprint of it gives it a great presence.

It's just that killer pose that sells it, it really conveys movement, i especially like how Snake Eyes cutting the Ninjas sword is so well done.

Overall just a fantastic diorama.

Originally it was just a broken dagger and and the Paladins hair but when the guy sent it he basically threw it in a box with some plastic bags, so when it arrived it had a ton of damage.



I actually found a few more pieces after i took this picture.

So yeah paint chips and broken pieces all over.

Whoa! That looks like shrapnel from a war zone. You did a pretty good job fixing it up!

Nice, Alex!! That is a truly awesome piece.

I wish for sideshow to produce more of these dios. When they get to do them, they are unbeatable.
