Looks almost too good!!

Can't wait to get my exclusive sometime tomorrow!

 

[JAWS]

I did not get this as I did not care for the movie. However Darknes has always been cool and this PF looks to be the best PF sideshow has done. Even better then HULK. It looks amazing and I can't imagine how awsome it is in person.

I had the exclusive on pre order because I thought I would hold onto it and sell it. I am glad I cancelled because it looks like there is a great chance I would have ended up keeping it and I just don't really have the fund to keep a piece from a film I don't really like.

But again I say, WHAT AN AWSOME PF!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[SSC_Nerd]

Well, it's coming tomorrow morning sometime, so I'll be watching the movie tonight. Hmm... Tangerine Dream of Jerry Goldsmith...

Okay, now that my initial excitement has passed, I must say that this is the best thing I own, period. The cast is awesome and the bust is AMAZING, but this is just.......I dont know. I am far more impressed that I thought I would be. In person, and I have to admit there is NO pic that has come close to doing this justice, it is a bit overwhelming. The materials used for the cape and shoulder pads(???) is great. The cape drapes very naturally. The leggings, which seems to be the biggest gripe, as very well done. They are much darker than any pix have really shown. I the pix I have seen, and taken, they seem to highlight the lighter parts of the leggings around the holes. Another thing not seen in the pix is the fine netting over the hole areas.

Really there is nothing I can say I am unhappy with. Nothing.

2 things to note though. The red on the bust and the red on the PF are completely different. Why??? I have no idea. IMO it would have made perfect sense to use the same paint apps on both. The bust is much more red, while the PF look more...hmmmm...not red. I mean its red, just a totally different shade. I like the paint on the bust better.

And for what ever reason the PF feels a lot liter than the cast. Not sure why that would be. And the base on the case is MUCH heavier.

Anyway, I am 100% satificed with Darkness.

I have never looked forward to a collectible like I did with this one. It is truly my holy grail, or unholy grail I guess.

My Unholy Trinity of Darkness' is complete!!!!



I want to take more pix, so in a day or 2 there may be more to see. I just cant seem to take my eyes off it.

Check out the size of the sword

This should give you an idea of just how HUGE this PF is.

And here is the exclusive.

Oh, and just in case you were wondering all the pix I took are without flash, except this one.

Congrats, King Darkness! You took some great pics there. I love the side-by-side comparison with the cast as well as with the LSB. I'm totally jealous that you have the cast. You have an awesome display there.

Heres pix of the proto legs from Toyfair.



The gold colored leggings looked cool as hell. To bad the production leggings arent the same color.

Seems there was much more gold coloring through out the PF. Even the sword was more gold colored.

 

[King Darkness]

Second chance on Darkness Exclusive.

AWESOME pics Chase! It's so great to see the cast and the production PF next to each other like that. Really is fitting that your collection of Darkness pieces will be the only one like it in the entire world. THAT shows not only your dedication to the cause, but your giving nature to Diane's fund AND your name on the board. It's PERFECT that it is you. That is a collection to be proud of my friend.

I really cannot wait to have mine. I know I will paint the sword more of a antique Gold and try to see if I can work some magic on the pants. Maybe drybrushing can give it some pop. But really, it's such a beautiful piece already.. I'm really in awe of it, and I don't even have it in hand.

Thank Josh!!!

I cant wait to see what you do with the pants.

 

[moonlightdrive21]

The pants are beyond awful. I wonder how it would look if you just cut them off !!!
