Gentle Giant: Honey Trap - Whisper Variant SDCC Exclusive

Honestly, I think the haters are going to hate regardless. It was super limited and over priced making it impossible for everyone to own which is enough to make people hate it. One of the major reasons I don't post much on collecting boards anymore is this overwhelming need for people to hate on what they can't have in their collection. If all our collections were exactly the same, why collect? Just look at the carbon copy collection pictures of someone else's stuff. The ability to have unique items is what drives us and this is one of those items.

But whatever, I was lucky enough to get one and love it. I think there was a ton more work done in creating her than the average statue. $669 of work? I don't know but it clearly has more bells and whistles than the average sculpt. There is a ton going on with her.

When you started posting your pics, I was going to warn you about this. But you're clearly not new to forums and seem well prepared for the comments.

My comment is... beautiful pics, thanks for posting some in-hand shots.

Is this unusual?

Maybe its because you had a lot of the SDCC exclusives in your order?

[AstroWho]

Hope so. I wrote them an E-Mail to inquire? Makes me nervous when most of their SDCC Exclusives are Sold out.

Thanks for the pics. Whisper looks beautiful. I was always in on the normal. I think the variant looks better than the pre-order pics now.

Is there anything else in the box or on the box story wise?

I haven't been charged yet either. No worries. It will happen. Lol

I did notice they bundled my spider ham with this in my account, so that's probly the hold up.

Thanks! Quite a relief to know I do not suffer alone!

I'm fond of the reg, but wow the detail. I prefer the eyes forward, but eye lashes kinda look 3 dimensional. Almost cant tell it painted.

Nothing inside besides the COA.

The outside of the box is just plain white with the same graphics from this video:

And for the record, mine is #97 out of 100.

Hello,

She looks great, I think it come out quite well and the paint app looks pretty flawless. The make-up is what it is...like it or not. I would have gone for it but the $$ made it a real deal breaker. If I am going to spend 3/4 of a grand on a statue it will be on a more imposing statue or towards a new receiver...LOL.
