remark: i think you put the necklace with the footbone backwards around neck.

Which of these four portraits is the one you going to use most?

(im not going to use the net either and don't have the spear)

Thanks for the tip! I wasn't sure how to put it on at first and now it makes sense.

I'll be alternating between the two unmasked portraits.

Here is a comparison with a Bowen. The rest of my collection is in storage.

Hey Gary, one last question for you:

I see you bought batteries for it. I know they're the little round one's, but can you tell me the exact one's to buy? Also, do think these batteries will corode overtime inside the statue?

Yes, it is. Right around 12” tall

The Pred’s left arm has the same mass as the entire Spidey figure

Coin batteries are usually lithium batteries in which case they do not have acid in them or really any liquid so they do not run those risks. This is why when you have a statue you should always use lithium instead of alkaline which is the most common AA/AAA battery. However please note that when buying AA/AAA lithiums make sure you buy ones that are rated for the same voltage as it can technically damage the electronics. But lithiums have the the benefit of not leaking, lasting longer, and having a greater charge then alkaline.

Okay so the 1:3 may very well be a normal 1/2 size...
