Great bust but I'd never buy it.
Why?
If I were to get Stormshadow..I'd Want Cobra Commander. If I got Cobra Commander..I'd want the Baroness. If I got the Baroness...I'd want Destro. If I got Destro..I'd want Serpentor. If I got Serpentor...I'd want Xamot and Tomax. If I got Xamot and Tomax...I'd want Shipwreck. If I got Shipwreck...I'd want Duke. Then you almost certainly HAVE to get Snake Eyes, Alpine, Snowjob, Wild Bill,
Gung Ho, Roadblock, Quick Kick, Scarlett, Lady Jaye, Zartan, Spirit, Firefly, Barbecue, Bazooka,Flint, Ripper, Torch, Buzzer, Major Bludd etc etc. The list is very very very extensive
Seeing a pattern here?
I can go on but my head just hurts thinking about how much space I'd need and money as well. And then the fact that there's probably no way in hell you could get GG to make everyone of them and how inevitably I'd feel they were incomplete since I was missing one character or another.
Anyhow. More power to you if you pick up this fantastic bust! For me though it seems like a maddening slippery slope of desire which realistically won't be fulfilled.

Easy buy as long as the production looks good.

I doubt they'll do the eyes and skin like that proto, they didn't do it with the MK busts.
These all have huge edition sizes too. I reviewed the LSB of their Gipsy Danger for the SF channel and that came out well.
I have more faith when they are doing masks or robots etc...always seem to drop the ball with skin/eye paints.
Hope to be proven wrong of course.

Those are purely Diamond Select busts, though...or am I wrong? I know DS owns GG now, but I thought they still put out separate product. I'm much more confident in GG putting out close to proto product than I am in Diamond Select, but if they're working together on everything or at least using the same factories then yeah...I'd definitely wait to see it finished.
