ILLest of 'em all!!
Does anybody else feel that the placement of the Gun and Sword should be switched? I think it would look much better.

I see what you're saying but I still like it this way.
El Roranous said:You sir need glasses. To say that it does not even look like Ford is a huge lie.
It may need work but it isn't horrible by any stretch.
You sir need some English lessons.How can something I say about this 'thing' be a lie??Come back at me when you have learnt how to write.By the way -I do not need glasses..its called an opinion. Looking at those close ups just strengthens my view on this piece..my girlfriend only guessed who this was because of the leather jacket.I think it looks NOTHING LIKE HIM and that is my opinion,like it or not.Looks more like Ewan McGregor in AOTC!!
Indy likeness is not as spot on as Jack Sparrow, but nowhere near as bad as Aragorn. A little work on the eyes and the Indy CM will be a must have, just like the truly brilliant Jack Sparrow CM. I for one really value the Autographs with the CM's. Depp and Ford signatures are the cherry on top.
Now to figure my finance plan, as I too must have these.

Wow, nice personal attack, really mature.bonsey said:
Regardless of my English, which is fine by the way. You are arguing semantics. I can use the word lie in this sense.
2 : to create a false or misleading impression
Which is a 100% accurate usage of the word. Here is a website for you, my oh so great English teacher, that may guide you on your way to becoming an even larger A$$!

By the way the term you need glasses is a commonly used expression to denote that people disagree visually.
So in closing, piss off and go get your girlfriend some glasses too because she needs them desperately.

I agree. The Indy is not as spot on as the Sparrow, which is looks freakishly like Depp. At least Indy doesn't have a HUGE forehead.

aren't there licensing/likeness problems with Harrison Ford??? as in he doesn't like people using his face for this kind of stuff. or does CM have his approval?? i like it and don't think its that far off, but it could be better...its not as bad as say, SS Han.
The people who are critizing this piece ridiculously are those who cant afford it.
Personnaly,The Indy figure is the best likeness I have ever seen of Harrison Ford.The Depp one is a bit chubby in the cheeks but still looks near damn perfect.
To say you wouldnt even pay 25$ for a work of art like that is being very retard IMO.

exactly... i've found the people who criticize the most are the ones who have no intentions of ever owning.Shai Hulud said:

But...he's an artist. I've yet to own a CM piece, but Jack and Indy are must haves. For some reason, the face being a little bit off on Indy doesn't bother me. It would on Jack, but other than a difference in the fullness of the cheeks, I think jack is closer to perfect than any other human they've done.:chew

Anyone who says they wouldn't pay 25 bucks for that piece is either lying, over exaggerating, or is downright not thinking.
I could easily sell that on the bay for 500 bucks and make a nice 475 profit. Heck, even a grand. Going lower to guarantee an automatic sale.
Shai is right on the money. Those who trash it honestly may not like it. Not everyone is. I do think that these aren't for everyone, but don't ignore the craftmanship that also go into these because I imagine these are much more detailed, realistic, and more well crafted than whatever you collect, but I can understand it's not your cup of tea.
But why come into a thread and tear apart something like that? Seems so foolish. I don't like a lot of LOTR stuff. Don't see me ripping on their community and the collectibles pertaining to the franchise. Granted I really love the Lurtz PF. And while I sincerely don't care for the X-Men vs. Dio or understand why the craze is behind it, I would love to score it for a few hundred! But I wouldn't keep it. hehe
The fact someone takes the energy to come in and bash something you're putting a lot of money, time, and effort into obtaining, makes that individual(s) come off rather silly and envious. They may not exactly be envious that you are purchasing this piece per-say, but of the magnitude of said purchase!
I for one can not wait until Rory gets this so he can post pictures for us, which may sell some of us into going the same route as him and take this sucker on! If I had the funds, either CM Jack or Indy would become the centerpiece to my ever expanding collection.
To the rest who have been belligerent and negative in their posts... jealousy is one ugly mother.
Yes, very yes and too true. Rock on EliEli26 said:

If anything, as fellow collectors we should acknowledge and embrace such big and bold purchases towards amazing pieces like these. I can understand someone who really isn't into these sort of things (collecting statues and figures) not having any interest, but Freaks especially should be more than understanding.
This is why I come to the Freaks forum, because when I get something new and discuss about it I know I won't have people roll their eyes at me and look the other way or think I am crazy or too old to be collecting toys. lol
We Freaks gotta stick together... I hope by saying that, it won't be used against me in the "Eli..." thread. Worse, I could have said, "Don't worry bro, I got your back."
Don't worry I have no intentions going there. You *******s made me so paranoid now. Everytime I type something I got to make certain you can't make any gay innuendoes from it.
