Same. It's still an expensive statue...made out of piggy bank plastic.

I just refuse to give them a pass on this. It would have to be a much better deal than that to get me to bite.

Honestly, I had so put this out of my mind, I forgot it existed.

Did we ever get a weight on this piece?

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

I like monster/creature-related stuff, so I'm surprised I never got into the character - LOVED Marvel's Man-Thing though.

However - since this (and the PRIME1 piece) were released, I got pulled into the TV series, and thought that every episode (except the last one) was great.

So - am I now interested in buying? . . . nah - just can't get past the "piggy-bank" thing. Maybe if the cost was $80 instead of $80 discount

May well buy an action figure if NECA get round to doing it though - it'll be the same material but 1:10 to 1:20 the price

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

I have an exclusive. The sculpt is phenomenal. He is heavy and huge (I know, that’s was she sayed) and fits close in a besta cube.

I love this piece of art (and that is what I say)

Does it look plasticy at all? I love the sculpt but couldn't drop that much cash on something I wasn't 100% sure about and I've never been able to see one in person.

I just got mine today. Looks great. Does not feel like plastic nor does it feel like polystone if that makes any sense. The sculpt is beyond fantastic. Paint application is good if not great. There was a little more shine to him in the prototype which i think is lacking here just a tad bit but overall happy. And I can't wait to get him displayed. I can post some pics if anyone wants any.

Great to hear it doesn't look plastic or cheap in person. That was my main concern since the sculpt, pose and design are just about perfect to me. Also, I'd love to see some pics!
