Do you include the bronzes in your completist list?

Because if you do you are looking at close to 15 grand up front just for that.

This doesn't even include various rare pieces like the Vampirella Bronze of which a dozen or less was made and sells for thousands as well . . .

While I love their work, they also tend toward the gimmicky special edition with various "ruby" and "diamond" and "emerald" and "silver" versions making it all but impossible to be a TRUE completist.

I thought about it and then gave up. I'll get the girls and the particularly impressive males that Moore sculpts and only the rarest version and that's all I can afford . . .

Not to mention the bronzes of which I can afford none!

I have both versions of the barbarian (an autographed counter sample of the regular version and a never displayed nude version) , Frazetta's Princess, T-shirt Fathom, and have ordered the witchblade school girl and Magdalena A/P. Every piece is outstanding. Excellent detail. Moore is probably my favorite sculptor.

No definitely not the bronzes or all the different versions of the same statue etc. Other then that though, i'll seek to add as many Moore pieces as i can find. Should still leave a few pieces to collect

BTW, pat, not a bad choice for a first Moore piece. I'm very excited about that one.

It's good to have a focus. You can't buy everything (unless you're filthy rich and have a huge house). Moore is an excellent choice.

- She-Dragon
- Kabuki AP
- The Darkness FS no#
- Witchblade
- Witchblade Bust
- Fathom Tank top
- Liberty Meadows Brandy

in transit/ordered
- Witchblade II
- Barbarian (regular)
- Magdalena FS
- Aphrodite IX AP
- Vampirella FS
- Heavy Metal 2000 statue
- Witchblade Schoolgirl (regular)
- Magdalena AP (preordered)
- She-Dragon Mohawk version (preordered)

I think that is all of them right now.

The "in transit/ordered" list will increase heavily during the coming months to say the least.

Don't care much for the snowglobes nor the ornaments, i'll just be collecting the FS statues excluding the bronzes and all busts that aren't Buffy related i guess. I try to stay away from busts in general, but some are to good to pass up on.

I really like the Moore stuff too. I'm a bit late and have some catching up to do. Great pics on your site gentlemidget. I'm hoping to have about 6 pieces by the end of the year.
