Well, first of all, aren't you mostly a Marvel fan? Also, if the line was, let's say $25, would you still think it's crap? My only problem with this line is the incredibly high price for it. How come I can get a nice larger bust from DST for around the same price??!! Since B_C is a fan of the Astonishing X-Men bust line, I have NO idea why he would give this bust 3 out of 5 stars??!! My only reasoning would be that he likes to burn cash. So B_C, how about sending some of that spare cash over here??

Saw that one and WW the other day. They sure is teeny. If these had been done BD scale, they'd be movin' pretty quick, because the sculpts aren't bad. I have no idea what the world goes through DCD's mind. Inchin' closer to that Jim Lee style commission project.

1st off ,I get these at a good discount thanks to a buddy on the forum.

Second, I like the line. this one has problems, yes, but I still like it, and therefore couldn't give it 2 outta 5. I give busts/statues I wouldn't consider owning 2 or lowers stars (see superman deluxe statue review).

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

Is a review score based on price, or the sculpt itself? We all know DC charge over the odds (compared to others) and do things a bit smaller than others (eg medium instead of full statues) but you have to consider the statues or busts in and of themselves.

I also thought the green lantern vs sienstro was a bit over-priced, but that didn't stop me from giving it four outta five.

The review is based on the whole package loco. I was happy with the product and gave it a good score.

Hey, it's BC's review, he can give it whatever score he wants. No need to get stroppy.

I like this bust a lot and will be picking it up next week. I think once all 6 are out, they will be a stunning set.

Unfortunately, this whole bust line doesn't work for me. My lcs has both this one and the WW piece. They're simply too small, with a lack of detail that's to be expected for this size, for the price that's being asked.
