I'm not missing out on this one, so I guess I'll have to pay the crazy shipping fee.

it's an amazing piece. I'm surprised its that limited. I think people are out of space for the busts. I missed out on the cyclops. that will probably ship next.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Looks like my PO was April last year and COVID was wreaking havoc so the uncertainty probably kept many from putting in the order.
I LOVE the busts they put out. I’ve got Freddy, Jason, Pennywise and not a bust but still life size, Mohawk gremlin.
Guessing I’m going to keep my order for this guy.

Yeah, they put out some great busts. Movie monsters are my favorite.

I think ECC and CM price themselves out of their own market

well, look what queen studios charges for those busts? sideshow ones are $1200 and usually much simpler in design and execution. not sure its the pricing. people like comics more than monsters i guess.

Yep, I don't feel $1600 was a ridiculous price for this bust. It's made of translucent resin and has acrylic eyes. It also has the two arms. I agree that more people are into comics, but also I feel that more people collect full figures as opposed to busts. But other companies do put out 1/3 scale characters for cheaper than ECC. Are they the same quality? Not usually, but I suppose they offer more "bang for the buck."
Anyway, Mine should be here towards the end of the week.
