The Balrog Flame of Udun bust

Surprised there’s no thread for this piece it looks awesome and the light up feature is excellent, I had the Sideshow Bust which was very nice but I sold it a while back and kinda regretted it. But this piece improves on that with the light up feature. Decent price too imo, just put my order in.

It’s not too bad, especially if wall hanging. certainly not tiny it’s not exactly a mini bust!

Here it is compared to the fell beast Bust and that certainly isn’t small.

Yeah but I had visions of that huge wall mounted one or something that while certainly not accurately "lifesize" scaled at least the size of the average "lifesize" bust, if I'm making myself clear here.

Other than maybe $100-$200 overpriced, nothing wrong here just my own sadness.

Yeah I can understand people wanting something huge especially given the character. For someone like me though who is short on space then these wall hanging busts are ideal in both size and form

It seems like the led lighting flickers and changes color. Has anyone seen this in person?
