I have received mine. I'm very impressed. It looks much better than any pictures I've seen, including secret sanctuary's.
The hair and eyebrows look much better in person. I will post some photos.

I absolutely love this statue. Looking at photos online, the paint on the hair and eyebrows is what I worried the most about with darkside pieces specially the new terminator.

In person, Spock looks fantastic. The eyebrows look great. much better than the photos.
The sculpt and paint on the uniform is very detailed.

Thank you nearmint for your review which made me pull the trigger before this sold out.


I am looking forward to Picard and Kirk, and will be checking out anything Darkside produces.

So glad you love it. I'm displaying him so I have a good view of him from my couch, and I find myself glancing over frequently.

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

I received mine.

I can tell you Darkside Collectibles has what it takes to make good movie statues.

I wish I had a better camera but I can tell you they nailed Leonard Nimoy's Likeness. It's a very regal and impressive piece. I know its a long shot, but I'm hoping they make a movie Kirk to compliment this

Congrats! A movie Kirk would be cool, but I'd like a classic Trek Spock to go with Kirk.

I got him as well. Such a great looking statue. Its spot on as the elder Spock to me.

I believe they have Kirk coming out as well

But not as good of a likeness unfortunately. Can't wait to see what AI can start doing for sculpting.

I'd imagine in a few years things will start to look very amazing and traditional sculptors will start being replaced for many projects especially those trying to mimic already existing real life people.
