Star Wars Classics Queen Amidala Bust Photos and Review

I know the Star Wars Classics busts have a generally bad reputation among a lot of collectors due to their small scale and lack of a specific edition run. I've been pretty happy with most of the releases so far, though, and I just picked up the Queen Amidala bust last week. I have to say, I'm completely happy with her. The likeness is very recognizable, and she has a good level of detail to her, especially in light of the scale. I posted a full review at Mechazilla:

And here are a few of my favorite shots:

Glad to kwow that someone is happy with these. I thought if I ever wanted to make a chess set, I'd start buying them as well.

Enjoy and cheers.

Chess piece...ditto.
I think the likeness looks good and I'm glad to hear you enjoy it.
I'd prefer a regular size bust, and I know it's gonna look smooth, if they ever get off their @sses and do one.

I have all of those and I must say they look better together then one or two apart. Yeah there small but I like them. I still hope they make some MB out of some characters (Amidala, Snowtrooper, hell even Fisto).
If you can find all of them for a great (read: cheap) price, consider to buy them. But plz don't put them next to your mini busts!
