ECC : Fire Skull by Akihito Ikeda

C'mon forps we actually have similar tastes but ya gotta keep it classy on here.

I agree about the half scale... there are only lifesize busts. Anything else is just an unfinished miniature.

Pretty detailed sculpt and a cool design,along with a very nice base,but it's not for me

Yep the ignore option is good but unfortunately when someone quotes his idiotic rambling posts I still see them.

Well, ok... I am a jerk, a troll etc as i was when i said ORDER THANOS second 1 or Lady Maria or now Mr Freeze. This 1/2 bust will go for under 400dol in about 2-3 years time. No matter how many pieces are going to be sold, this thing simply "says" nothing to 99,999% of the collectors.

Its 1/2 (easyyyyy pass for the LSB maniacs), its tooooo expensive for 1/2 scale, its a mix between what ? Ghost rider and Predator ?

It is good for a custom piece, but its a no-no-no for a mass-production piece. This is a piece i would ask a fellow artist to sculpt for me and my tastes, not a 1/2 bust designed to sell 200-300 pieces.

My 0.02, guys! NO WAY this is going to sell being 1/2 scale, expensive and what exactly is it? Forps said it, write it down and lets come back in 2-3 years time! It looks like the random chic from ECC-Cinemaquette a couple of months ago. They sold what ? 30 pieces ?
