Are you two agreeing on something?!

That's it, the Princess Bride IS the ultimate act of diplomacy ... it can heal even a wound inflicted by a Kurgan!
 
They're working on turning it into a stage musical. God knows why.

I have higher hopes for Young Frankenstein the musical.

Oh, and I consider sculpting blunders to be FAR worse than paint blunders. Paint blunders can be fixed by most anybody, but sculpting/production blunders? You need a rare man for that kind of fix.
 
I don't consider Legolas a blunder, I consider the changes that were made to him a blunder, unless somehow in person saves him from looking so bad. There are pics of him from Toy Fair over at Rebelscum and it looks phenominal, so if this is as odd looking in person as the photos, then it isn't a sculpting job blunder, but a production choice blunder. Seeing that they changes Legolas, I wonder if Maul was redone and that's why his eyes look normal, I thought at first it was just the paint apps making them look better cuz I didn't think SSC would retool a head sculpt but after this, we have confirmation.
 
Biggest blunder? SS makin their proto pics spot on and then not livin up to it.

They don't make proto pics they make proto pieces and have the time and resources to do great work, and doing the better work helps so that the bar is high for the production facility, and while sometimes the production doesn't live up to the proto, if the proto bar were set lower, production might be lower so I'm ok with that balance because I know production has too many of the small figures to paint as nicely as the proto.
 
Obviously.
It's too bad that great work can't end up at the factory and in the final pieces.(sometimes to me it seems misleading to put out great proto pics with their proto pieces and then have them turn out significantly different IMO..in a negative way)but hey for 50$ i can't complain too much.
 
Biggest blunder...Sideshow's international shipping costs...like Canada...

EX....GREY HULK PF = 425$
SHIPPING TO CANADA = 105 $
CUSTOMS TO PAY AT DOOR = 110$


TOTAL FOR THE STATUE....640$ :google :google :google
 
I think the biggest blunder is having so much of one line, 12 inch, PF's, Bust and now Dioramas. Each one gets better leaving the others to fail. I don't think the future looks good for the LOTR 12 inch line. I'm sure there selling well but lower then expectations. Forget about the 12 inch line and bring on the Dioramas.
 
Biggest blunder=no Medieval Kurgan.


Seriously, would you have expected anything else from me:cool:
