Skeletor 1:1 Life-Size Bust

[foots]

Really like the lighting effect of the eyes.

Initially the light up eyes didn't do much for me, but I really like the hollow look. It was easy to overlook in early photos.

Wow! That is a badass shot! Thanks for posting it brother!

Yeah, the eyes look completely wicked. Not sure how they are accomplishing that look, but it turned out great.

I dont think it will ship until january. I hate to say it, but thats the honest truth.

Its just been very difficult to get a production piece to look as good as the prototype.

We are on track now, but we literally only began production a few weeks ago. We spent almost a year in development.

Yes! Now I have a few more months to figure out how I will explain this one to Mrs. foots.

I'm pretty sure she is going to notice it.

Sad we won't get him until January, but I'd rather he be right than get here sooner.

Thought this was worth posting. Busts by Ryan Pintar, the same guy who sculpted and painted the Skeletor and He-man busts. Be cool if PCS has something similar up their sleeve. Trap Jaw and Hordak.

For those who don't get the newsletter:

As you can see many items have had serious delays. For this we apologize. Making hand crafted collectibles in low edition sizes often becomes trickier than we expect and when one item slows the production line down, it affects all of them.

The biggest issue has been getting the LEDs in the Skeletor Bust to glow like fire behind his skull and the find a way to package him so our international customers pay as little freight as possible. This has caused a massive delay but we are pleased to say all the problems have been worked out and he is well into production.

However, because of the unusually long delay we will be offering everyone who pre-ordered a Skeletor Bust before June 1st 2014 a $20 gift certificate on a future pre-order. Please note this cannot be used on existing pre-orders. To cash in your gift certificate, next time you pre-order an item send an email to customerservice@pcstoy.com and let us know you have a Skeletor Bust on order and we will refund you $20.

Very nice! Trapjaw is a bit over the top in my opinion but I recognize the skill involved. The busts are in good hands!

[jonwes]

The $20 thing is cool. Might be nice for the Skeletor statue.
funnily enough, I ordered my Skeletor bust on August 29! :O

Skeletors eyes look so good with the fire glow effect, one thing i personally wished that PCS had either a masters of the universe logo or the characters or their name on the busts.
