Thanks guys. I think the big companies need to look at what Kotobukiya and Gentle Giant do with Star Wars. Not every Vader statue needs to have his light sabre drawn and ignited.

Star Wars Art: Ralph McQuarrie is another book that every Star Wars fan needs. Even if you're not a Star Wars fan, if you have an appreciation of concept art, you'll love this book.

Two massive volumes of Ralph McQuarrie artwork( and some of George Lucas' too).

I think it's fantastic. The best Superman statue I've seen in person. The portrait is awesome! People on the boards have a tendency to blow things out of proportion. The intensity of the portrait is incredible!

The hands are probably the best quarter scale hands I've ever seen. It's got an eerie level of realism to them.

The weakest part of the statue is the cape. I've got to say, it's pretty cheap. They should have done something better with it. You can get it to look good in the right lighting, but it could have been so much more.
