They’ll make the bust later. They just can’t say they are now because it would ruin sales for the entire statue orders.

That is what i said.
If you look closer at the provided pictures there is difference between the two shoulder cannons. Both looking forward but one is 'deactivated' and other is bit bigger and 'activated' the center has a led light.

Anyhow i've seen the local prices for this and they can keep it. every statue will be a few hundred more and so on.. These new pred and alien statues will all be

Releasing the busts would hurt their sales for the full size statue and honestly I would prefer they use their recourses on the full size statue line. The city hunter bust hurt the full size statue sales, many people become content with the bust as it scratches that itch for them.

I initially wanted Jungle only but after seeing the quality of him in person Berserker is a must for me. I'll also be getting Wolf 100% and potentially an alien or Elder at this scale. If they can knock Elder out of the park I will most likely get him

^ I think the disappointment of the base, the underwhelming pose and the doubtful possibility of a roaring head hurt the CH sales.

Aahaha yes I agree, should have been a city theme base, more upright strong pose not awkward and leaning. The roaring head was included with the DX but everything else ruined it

This. I'd have gone for the FS over the bust if they didn't drop the ball so hard.

They say they're not making the bust now, but let's not forget how Prime 1 re-released the big Chap which had a small ES too and starting pumping out more heads from the molds, for more profits. I'll buy the bust but not the full statue, due to the insane shipping prices & the price spike. The bust won't cost a fortune to ship, so they could sell a shi# load of em'...

Well, there goes all of my plans, space, and the rest of my money (that I don't have anyway).

Would you believe I've never seen Commando?

Anytime I see Commando gifs I'm always like "This looks like Dutch but something's not quite right..."
