The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

lol there was so much tape on this statue it wasn't even funny. Don't just pull it out of the foam cause the tape connects to other pieces as well.

Will give a little review of my thoughts on it sometime soon when I have more time but here are a couple quick initial comments.

Hooded Portrait is same as others have reported with off center forehead markings.

Statue is back heavy. It won’t tip over but if you lightly touch all the way around the base when you do so on the back side it will tip back a little.

Sculpt is very delicate and beautifully constructed. Very well if not overly packaged you will need a knife or scissors to remove it from the foam. Be cautious of this.

Here is a link to my google drive folder with many pictures including side by sides with other Mythos.

it IS back heavy but also the easiest fix in the world.
if you look on the bottom the placement of the felt pads in the back are stuck too far forward. all you have to do is go to hardware store get a sheet of the stick on felt pads and place two in the rear and boom its as sturdy as any statue and zero rock. mine is rock solid, world of difference

Yes. I sold off my Mythos line a while ago and I know getting one means getting them all. I’m sticking to 1/4 scale. This is how I need to move forward to stay grounded. I feel less inclined to jump on for the simple fact they are already redoing characters; Kenobi and Maul.

If Mythos ever comes as 1/4 scale however I’m done. That would be trouble.
