What Star Wars statue should I get?

Found what I was looking for so I'll ask a new question:

Which Star Wars Koto statue should I get?

1. Darth Maul
2. Ep. II Clone
3. 501st
4. General Grievous

In order of my favourite one first:
- Ep. II Clone
- Darth Maul
- 501st
- Grievous

With an sidenote that I don't own Grievous yet.

It'd be a hard choice between Maul and Grievous, both are awesome pieces, I feel the Maul one captures everything the character was.
But Grievous looks awesome!
If anything I'd go Maul if only for the fact the piece is older and may become hard to get.

The Troopers bugged me, especially the EP3 one's as most were just a repaint =(

(I have Maul, and will probably pick up Grievous.)

I don't think I'll be buying any of the humans either. I'm going with Maul first, then Grievous. Hopefully I can find one at a decent price. Thanks for posting guys.

By the way, could you guys post some pics of your own Maul statues (particularly close-ups of the face)?

i think the snowtrooper looks fantastic, and the sandtrooper is a close second, as i said just a pity about the humans, but even the attakus humans don't do it for me

So true
Koto (with the exception of Darth Maul) and Attakus cannot get human likeness right. Its strange because Bib Oola and Maul are very well done for Attakus, but I attribute that to them not having traditionally "human" charachteristics and tones. It could very well be that Attakus has human likeness right now though BECAUSE Bib and Oola (the closest to human they have made recently) are VERY good ....it will be interesting to see a true human sculpt from them now (it appears Attakus has refined their art in all ways as can be seen in even the Gammo and Sandtroopers when you compare them to the Stormtrooper for example which I think is hiddeous), in comparison to the other ones like X-Wing Luke and Han and the Emperor
