Would love to add this to my collection, but hesitant cause of issues I have with two of my Enterbay products. I have both the Black Label Bruce Lee and Way of the Dragon Bruce Lee statues and after being displayed for few months, started leaning forward. I decided to put them back in their boxes and in storage since then. Enter the Dragon statue is still on display with no issues. I am hoping Blitzway uses different material to avoid the leaning issue before I shell out 600 bucks.

Wow, this looks great! Does anyone own any Blitzway statues and could share how production paint and quality holds up compared to the prototype?

2- Al Pacino- Charlie Brigante- Carlito's Way 1/6th
3- Bruce Lee- Billy-Lo- Game of Death 1/3rd statue

Mucho impressive.
It realy is!

I hope Blitzway do a 1:3 Enter The Dragon Bruce Lee as that is my favorite Bruce Lee movie.

Game Of Death is not that great a movie. The movie got famous because of the Bruce Lee VS Kareem Abdul Jabbar fight but that was not a great fight at all.

While the possibility is there —after all this statue is called 'GOD edition', implying there might be more to come—, I don't know how they would hide the seam between the polystone body and the PVC head.

They could make it entirely out of either tranculent resin or PVC.

That way they could cast it without seams.

If it was all PVC, that would defy the point of it being a 'hybrid statue'. The polystone body prevents the piece from leaning and it also shows none of those unavoidable ugly PVC seams.

As for it being all translucent resin, I'm not sure if they'd be able to get the results they can currently get with PVC for head sculpts.
