I would go with the Sideshow bust if you can track one down.

the sculpt is good just not spectacular to warrant a plus 300$ price unfortunately and the bad paint job just makes matters worse.
like with most charachters sideshow tends to raise the bar ,and releasing a sub par product like this and expecting it to sell is just not acceptable not offence to the sculptor he has posted the wip pics here when we discussed this earlier and it did look good.

Clearly the overall opinion of this bust is poor. The veins look really silly. I remember the sculptor said that he wanted Venom to look like his skin was ripped away, thus showing the veins and muscles, but it doesn't look good at all. The cheesy paint job doesn't help this bust either.

If you want to buy one of these busts, wait at least six months because you can probably get one half off on eBay, then repaint it.

So no one bought this piece or too embarrassed to admit to it?

I was tempted, but I ended up holding off. Too many pieces, not enough cash (or space).
