Oh and seriously you can't understand? I think it would be harder to understand why you WOULDN"T want one.

Nope, not me. Don't need anything that big to showcase. I don't have to ...don't want to.

To me an exceptional sculpt with a phenomenal art direction has more presence than the size of a statue.

Nothing is as impressive as a quality big statue. Life size pieces(or equivalent size like this bust) outshine all. You can have all the cool little pieces you want, but one good big piece looks more impressive than a room full of little statues to me.

I feel the same.
I understand the sentiment, but unfortunately a good large piece will simply overpower an otherwise superior and excellent smaller scale piece.
In photos, sure there’s no real effect, but in person it’s a totally different story.

Yeah people often comment they don't collect lifesize busts based on pictures or it being an incomplete figure and I think to myself "ah but you just don't understand"

Yea, I just don't have the urge for it. You guys can keep buying the biggest statues all you want. I don't have the need for it.

This is, unfortunately for both wallets and space, 100% true.
I see it all the time with the Chronicle 1:5 Rex.. the statue is surrounded by collectibles of all sorts, Prime 1 statues, much better painted and meter-long ECC maquettes, life-size busts.. guests don't give a crap about anything, all they see is the big statue.
I can totally see this Queen Rex outshining even life-size collections.
