Sideshow - Psylocke: X-Force Variant

Shot this using the iPhone. Great looking piece i doubt i will grow bored of.

I waited just a bit too long and missed out on the X-23 EX...now its around $700-800 so no go for me for sure.

It's not worth that amount.
X-23 looks small. The head-sculpt looks like 1/5 scale.
Way smaller than a standard 1/4 scale head sculpt, slightly larger than a 1/6 Hot Toys head sculpt.
Sideshow should have charged $100 less for X-23
Also, the piece feels different to polystone, more rubbery. Sideshow call the material 'Polyresin'.
The piece is painted well enough, even if mine had some black dot's here and there.
A bonus point for the claws, as they are made from metal.
I have the EX portrait also, but if i am honest, the Reg portrait looks better.

Hollywood Collectors Group - Species - Sil 1/4

The Ikea shelf ordered over five weeks ago has arrived, finally
The shelf: Ikea - BERGSHULT/GRANHULT (brackets) Wall Shelf 80X30 Dark Grey

I decided to pick up a wall shelf as i had no where to display my Sil 1/4 piece.
It is a bit of an oddball piece that fails to fit in with the rest of my collection. Next to the TV made sense.

Since i knew i only had room for some of the shelf, i picked up a second set of the wall brackets to make use of the rest of the shelf.

My GRANHULT Wall Shelf arrived yesterday. Also had to wait 5 weeks. 80X30 White. I'll cut it apart in the middle.

Looks very good with Sil

I went with Dark Grey to go with Sil, the base design especially.
I like the way the metal brackets hide the ends of the wood, as while i can saw straight, the results never look factory perfect. I am planning of using each end of the wood for two shelves, and ditching the middle section of wood.

But I was really amazed at how heavy the shelf is

They are made from chip-board, which is better than MDF. Along one edge is a plastic strip. I put this at the back, but think it is supposed to be at the front? I preferred to have the smooth finish at the front.

Prime 1 - Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie)1/3 scale

The shelf: Ikea - BERGSHULT/GRANHULT (brackets) Wall Shelf 80X30 Dark Grey

I few posts back i mentioned an Ikea shelf i had ordered, received, fitted.
The two images above show most of the other half now fitted to the wall. Wider than the other shelf.

For the moment i have placed 3x Prime 1 - Harley Quinn swap-out portraits on stands. I had no place to display the swap-out heads. I did not want to leave them in a box, as i would become too lazy to perform swap-outs.
