Absolutely.

I can't stand redundant design choices. Chest forms a natural base. Maybe base can be lowered/removed? Is that ever possible?

I have only PCS Akuma, so I'm no bust expert, but I know what I like.

But really there are no experts other than the people that make this stuff. We just either like it or not.

And the original plummets in value. Do it once. Do it right. Fett. Vader. Maul.

Great looking piece. Lots of fabric. Shouldn’t be expensive. It will be but it shouldn’t be.

they haven't, and for 1k price tags, they 100% should, no excuses. Prolly why I don't have many of their busts.

All busts should have acrylic eyes.
Saying it isn't affordable is like saying they can't afford to paint it.

In that case you just don't make it, no compromises.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

My Predator 1 bust has acrylic eyes and think my battle damaged Arnold T2 bust does as well. Wish they’d do it more often with the prices these cost

I just realized my main issue is with this base. Yes, my preference is no additional pedestal... but I realize that is the norm. This base in particular however, was sticking with me, and it occurred to me that it looks waaay too similar to one of my PC monitor bases. Tacky.
